I still remember the power of the tears. Water essential for life. How many wars will we fight for it?
Another small section of Idaho's Sawtooths reflected in Little Redfish Lake.
Shoulda put on a wider lens...
Barely got all this beauty in.

" I love the ground whereon she stands "
Here is "Celtic Woman`s" haunting version:
Do give it a listen/look;

"Black is the colour, of my true loves hair,
Her lips are soft like roses fair,
She has the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands,
I love the ground, whereon she stands"
" I love my love, and well she knows,
I love the ground, where on she goes.
I write her a letter, Just a few short lines,
And my heart it dies, a thousand times"
[ Unknown, traditional, Glasgow, Scotland, 18th century. ]
The evening light slowly fades out to the west
over Lugala and beyond and as far as the eye can see, in the Wicklow Mountains National Park, Ireland.
This lovely mountain is also called "Fancy Mountain".A pretty name for a pretty place.
Im going to ask my friend to write a slip jig on the fiddle for me and call it " The Fancies of Lugalaw " and then every time I go up here, not only will I have the view and the silence but Ill also have the music going around in my head as well. Now isnt that a proper kind of "madness"! Lol! P@t.

A few people have said that they found the song very sad, particularly the extra verse I put in above.
We may be completely wrong as often in songs and poems of this period from Ireland and Scotland, the woman is actually ones homeland.Many womens names were used in the place of the country and the broken heart and unrequited love has to do with the country been in "strangers hands" and un free and would particularly apply to Scotland and Ireland.
It seems to be in vogue now to be patriotic and whereas a certain amount of it is to be admired, we must be careful, as too much of it has plunged the World into too many wars. We dont want a border here in this country. We had one for a hundred years and lots died because of it. Mostly innocent as always.I do think that they wont allow one and Im hopeful.
Ive just updated this photo as lots of people may not have seen it. I actually think its my best ever and please do listen to the song and watch the video as its amazing!!! P@t.

Climb the mountain and get their good tiding, nature peace will flow into you as sunrise flows into trees, the wind will blow their own freshness and storm their energy while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of spring
I drove out to Buller Pond last night... This was the fifth day in a row I drove out there so I hope no one is sick of the place yet :P haha.
For all the time I spend out that way, this was the first time I have gone there at night. It was so still and quiet out there. It was a great way to spend the night.
The North Face of Annapurna I (8,091 m), the 10th highest mountain in the world. First climbed by a French expedition lead by Maurice Herzog and Louis Lachenal, who summited on the 3rd of June 1950 just before the monsoon storms arrived.
I took this shot just after sunrise, leaving a village called Ledar alone and hiking towards Chulu West to around 5,000 m altitude in order to see over the valleys seperating me from the Annapurna Massif. It was my first view of Annapurna I of this trip and it felt incredible to finally see the mountain about which I had read so much. Although I was so high and surrounded by ice, the sun was incredibly hot, the silence punctuated only by the cracking and groaning sounds of the seracs of Chulu West (6,419 m) so close behind me.

Took the a couple of blocks from my daughters home this past Friday. The Great Salt Lake is just past those mountains.

PS: I came here days ago and the scenery was gone. Too many huge trees block the landscape.
