This photo was taken on my very first day in Oaxaca, on my very first trip, a couple of hours after arrival . It was an accidental meeting, amazing welcome to this magical city and since we have met on a few more occasions. He is always kind , generous and joking around. Incredible talent yes, but also a humanitarian and protector of the civil rights of the poor Oaxacan population.
Francisco Benjamín López Toledo (b. July 17, 1940, Juchitán, Oaxaca) is a Mexican artist with some Zapotec Indian roots . He studied at the Escuela de Bellas Artes de Oaxaca and the Centro Superior de Artes Aplicadas del Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes, Mexico, where he studied graphic arts with Guillermo Silva Santamaria. He became succesful and famous at an early age, having his first major show at 21 years of age. Later , he spend years in Europe but returned to his beloved Oaxaca in 1984.
His social and cultural concerns about his home state led to his participation in the establishment of an art library at the IAGO, as well as his involvement in the founding of the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Oaxaca (MACO), the Patronato Pro-Defensa y Conservación del Patrimonio Cultural de Oaxaca, a library for the blind, a photographic center, and the Eduardo Mata Music Library. Toledo works in various media, including pottery, sculpture, weaving, graphic arts, and paintings. He has had exhibitions in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Spain, Belgium, France, Japan, Sweden, the United States, as well as other countries.
For his social and cultural commitment to the development of his home state, he received the Mexican National Prize (1998), the Prince Claus Award (2000) and the Right Livelihood Award (2005)
Protege of the great Mexican artist RufinoTamayo (1899-1991 ) , who was also from Zapotec Oaxacan background, Toledo is beloved by all of Mexico.

Last week I came back from a fishing trip in Ireland. We had good days with beer, wine and we tried some Irish whiskey. I bought myself a few small bottles (5 cl) Irish whiskey as a souvenir to remember these great days.
While cooking breakfast I noticed the jagged membrane of my egg. I also shot a portion of an amethyst geode but felt that this was perfectly jagged.
2020 "Christmas Star" Jupiter and Saturn conjunction taken on Monday, December 21, 2020 (Winter Solstice), at Antelope Island State Park in Utah.
A conjunction of two bright planets like Jupiter and Saturn creates an especially bright “star” in the sky. Articles have fondly labeled this event the 2020 “Christmas Star” on account of having lined up for the Winter Solstice and in reference to the Star of Bethlehem, which may have been a triple conjunction involving Jupiter and Saturn in the constellation Pices. Jupiter-Saturn conjunctions occur every 20 some-odd years, but this particular conjunction represents the closest they crossed over, from our perspective, since 1623 (and the closest regionally observable event since 1226). And, of course, these conjunctions occur on whichever day pleases them most.
This landscape photograph incorporates stacked exposures of the sky, stars, and conjunction; separately timed long exposures of the sky and water and foreground (because longer exposures cause greater blurring of elements like clouds), and accentuates the conjunction itself with reflection from high clouds and Dobsonian-style diffraction spikes created by adding an obstruction in front of the lens.

Technical Details
A high-ISO long-exposure landscape photograph was taken for reference (colors, star placement, etc.). Separate exposures were taken for the foreground (60s), water (20s), and clouds (10s) to create an HDR composite image (allows for clouds and water to not blur out excessively), all with the same framing and composition. Landscape photographs taken with Sony full frame camera with 70-200/2.8 GM. 20 fast exposures were taken of the planets and stars and stacked in Starry Landscape Stacker (macOS). Jupiter and Saturn were captured with a series of ten faster exposures to refine detail, combined with an exposure that included high clouds, adding some “bloom” to the conjunction, and an exposure taken with wires held in front of the lens to create traditional Newtonian-style diffraction spikes, accenting the separate celestial bodies. Sky photographs taken with Olympus E-M1 III using 40-150/2.8 Pro and 300/4 Pro lenses. Some nearby were being careless with their car headlights, and that turned out to afford some fun “light painting” for foreground elements. The resulting exposures were combined in Adobe Photoshop.
- L´altre salt d´aigua a Pozán de Vero encare és més espectacular i més maco. Aquí no vam omplir d´aigua les gorres per refrescar-nos, directament ens vam banyar. Quina pau i quina tranquil.litat !!!
Bon dia :-)))
- El otro salto de agua de Pozán de Vero, aún es más espectacular y más bonito. Aquí no llenamos las gorras de agua para refrescarnos, directamente nos bañamos. Qué paz y qué tranquilidad !!!
Buenos días :-)))
Portrait of a girl approaching womanhood and carefully balancing outside experiences with her inner life. What I am doing here is searching for a person's 'essence' and combing this with a particular shooting technique (wide-open, contre-jour, reflector, through a perforated sheet of lead).

Oui, je sais, c'est horrible!La nature est parfois cruelle!Mais après une petite recherche, c'est fort intéressant cette histoire;)EN gros, j'ai trouvé hier cette pauvre mouche.Une mouche morte en train de se cristalliser.Visiblement parasitée par un champignon portant le joli nom de Entomophthora muscae.Ce champignon parasite les mouches, "force" la mouche à aller se percher sur un point en hauteur, à écarter les ailes puis il la tue en lachant les spores, spores qui grâce à ce stratagème ont une chance de dispersion maximale. Affreux non?La nature est incroyable et parfois cruelle.
En voulant tourner ensuite la fleur, le corps est parti...Ne laissant plus que la tête.
Le champignon tueur est utilisé comme insecticide naturel.

Català: La nez-cassé BB7435 passa al costat de l'Aeroport de Béziers amb un mixte dels macos que, pel tipus de composició, crec que es podria tractar d'un Hendaye-Sibelin.
Castellano: La nez-cassé BB7435 pasa al lado del Aeropuerto de Béziers con un mixto de los guapos que, por el tipo de composición, creo que se podría tratar de un Hendaye-Sibelin.
