I wrote the following poem in 2002, it's only available in French, sorry about that...

  

Lendemain

 

Par Ben Heine

 

Le soleil bourdonne,

Une mélodie je fredonne.

Timide mais confiant,

Il voyage langoureusement.

 

Le soleil brûle,

Je m'échappe de ma bulle,

Lui est joyeux et décisif,

Il perce les nuages furtifs.

 

Le soleil fulmine,

La vie me ruine,

Il éclate et se décompose,

Puis la terre devient morose.

 

Le soleil aujourd'hui est mort,

En paix, à jamais je dors.

Le sol se désagrège et mes cendres

Reposent à présent dans la neige.

"In the history of collective as in the history of the individual, everything depends on the development of consciousness. This gradually brings liberation from imprisonment in unconsciousness, and [the trickster] is therefore a bringer of light as well of healing.”

 

“The so-called civilised man has forgotten the trickster. He remembers him only figuratively and metaphorically, when, irritated by his own ineptitude, he speaks of fate playing tricks on him or of things being bewitched. He never suspects that his own hidden and apparently harmless shadow has qualities whose dangerousness exceeds his wildest dreams.”

 

“He is a forerunner of the saviour and, like him, God, man, and animal at once. He is both subhuman and superhuman, a bestial and divine being, whose chief and most alarming characteristic is his unconsciousness… He is so unconscious of himself that his body is not an unity, and his two hands fight each other.”

 

[Quotes by Carl Jung taken from his work "Archetypes and Collective Unconscious"]

In praise of folly

 

Anima Mundi

Cosmic dancer

Zero is the number

The forerunner of the savior

 

Folly stands with

celestials in favor

As the wisdom of the world

is denied

closer to the truth

of the cosmos

 

O spiritual element!

Which gives earthly existence

charm and value

Salt of life,

yet you taste sweet

Bringing refreshment and

real treat!

 

Mediator to the center of the soul

Although the fool is always

too much or too less

Half god - half animal

Not un- but amoral

Mask of virtue

How much evil has been transformed

through wisdom?

 

(The owl of Minerva

comes too late again)

 

Beneath the consciousness

lies the archetype

When peasants aping the king:

Silliness an ancient

purifying rite

The fool clowning

between

Apollo and Bacchus’ sleight

 

Like the cunning Hermes

Flying through three worlds

Encrypted remains the

inner access

In Mercury the contradictions

Are connected

Healing begins with the

truth

 

So let the fool kiss the wound,

that only he can heal

No cure for the Fisher King

dying he lives despite this is fleed

the coffin

 

If the child is halfway into the

rational world

So the fool is on the right track

to escape

and laughs at those

who boast of their sageness

 

For divine folly is wiser

than compared to philosophy

and even its weakness

is stronger

Destroyed shall be

the wisdom of the wise

despoiler of most beautiful illusions

fantasised!

 

Why were we given by

Jupiter in a pound of passion

hardly mixed an ounce of reason?

Unwise deception brings delight

brings us love and the champion

 

Icy winds on mountain tops

The truth is to flattering mouth

no guest

Only the bread eater holds up

a mirror to the king

And the whim hides

the almost unspeakable

In crude jokes

of the most foolish kind

 

Why separating the paradise of the

fool from the misdeed?

The latter would never have arisen

had one learned to laugh

in dire need

 

So there are many classes of

fools

from the first screaming child

on every continent

in every literaral category

The fool can be found

in every human repertory

 

So let no one deceive

himself!

For whoever thinks to be wise

in this world

let him become a fool

so that he may become wise in the way

he was appointed to

  

[Translation of my poem "Preisung des Narrentums", 2023]

for my Dad. Miss you man.

This is for the Fix My Pic Please group

from an amazing original by Doxieone, titled, Korean War Memorial.

 

Here is a link to the original by Doxieone:

I thought this was an awesome shot of the statue. I used the magic wand tool to select and delete the background. I expanded the canvas size to allow for some more room and added several other images on several layers. I added some lighting using an orange/red spot light only on the statue layer.

 

Thanks Doxieone for letting me work on your amazing photo. It is so cool.

Piazza del Duomo - Trento

Woman rides a chestnut horse in dramatic lighting with flowing red hair and stylish attire

A confident woman sits atop a chestnut horse against a dark background. Her flowing red hair and elegant outfit catch the light, creating a striking and dynamic visual.

 

#Dusk’s Champion

 

A single beam of light cuts through the gathering dusk, carving a stage from the inky void. There, poised atop a chestnut mare, stands a woman whose presence commands both shadow and flame. The horse’s coat gleams like burnished copper, muscles flexing beneath every ripple of light. Behind them, the world recedes into darkness—yet in that moment, they are the only story unfolding.

 

Her red hair, loose and untamed, erupts around her shoulders in a cascade of fire. Each strand catches the glow, transforming windblown tendrils into living embers. She wears a tailored black coat with silver fastenings and a silk scarf that trails behind like a comet’s tail—an elegant armor fashioned for movement. Her gaze is steady, unflinching, as if she alone can hold back the night.

 

The chestnut horse shifts, planting hooves with purpose. In the interplay of light and shade, you see the tension of powerful haunches and the arch of a strong neck. The rider’s posture—chin lifted, spine straight—speaks of trust and mastery. They are a single silhouette in motion, a study in strength married to grace, daring the darkness to challenge their claim.

 

As the light flickers and wanes, she nudges her mount forward. Together they step into the shadows, leaving an echo of brilliance behind. In their wake, the dark canvas seems less empty—a promise that even in the deepest night, bold spirit and beauty can carve their own path.

Well, I was born on the day when the light starts to get longer, and the sun shows itself more each day, so what better way to show that than to wrap myself in lights right?

 

That's better! SO sorry to those of you who took the time to say nice things about the last one but I went back to play and learned how to really work the lights in my favor. I'm much happier with this! A little different for me, more eerie than it is flattering, and I like it all the same.

Today is pack and fly day so I may not get my 365 in. Here's an extra shot taken late last night just in case!

I know everyone and their mother is wrapping themselves in lights lately, but who says that means I can't or shouldn't right? Gotta try it out! I had this vision of it at work and while this didn't turn out how I'd planned, I still had to BAM, so here it is!

 

You gotta check out this KEH blog post full of vintage Christmas ads and covers of popular photography. It's pretty freakin awesome!

 

p.s. Thanks so much for all the birthday love today! I never expected to get so many messages and kind words...you all ROCK for realsies!
