Дань уважения

 

При подходе вверх по склону к этому водопаду долгое время видны только его клубящиеся пары, и лишь с высшей точки

под непрестанный шум потока можно увидеть его двурукую змею ... А переводится его название с норвежского как

уважаемый водопад.

Athabasca glacier.

In the past 125 years this glacier has lost over half of its volume and every year its depth decreases by 5 meters. The glacier is approximately 6 km (3.7 mi) long and is measured to be between 90–300 metres (300–980 ft) thick.

Величие оставшейся половины

 

Ледник Атабаска

 

В последние 125 лет этот ледник потерял половину своего объема и каждый год глубина его уменьшается на 5 метров. Длина ледника - около 6 км, а толщина - от 90 до 300 метров.

Lake Gelmer at an altitude of 1860 m is one of the most picturesque in Switzerland.

You can get to it using the cable railway from Handegg and the subsequent hiking trip. Until 2017, the opening of the Stoos funicular in Switzerland, the Gelmerbahn was the steepest in Europe (106% maximum incline).

12 minutes of almost vertical ascent in an open cable car provides a thrill, while a two-three-hour hike around the lake offers unforgettable views of its emerald waters, granite mountains, picturesque cliffs and running streams.

Путешествие к изумрудному озеру

 

Озеро Гельмер на высоте 1860 м - одно из самых живописных в Швейцарии.

Добраться к нему можно с помощью горного фуникулера от Хандегга и последующего пешего похода. До 2017 года, открытия в Швейцарии подъемника "Штоос," Гелмербан был самым крутым в Европе (максимальный уклон 106 %).

12 минут почти вертикального подъема в открытом вагончике фуникулера обеспечивают острые ощущения, а двух-трехчасовый поход вокруг озера дарит незабываемые виды на его изумрудные воды, окружающие гранитные горы, живописные скалы и бегущие ручьи.

She's faithful yet detached.

She's committed yet relaxed.

She's loves everyone yet no one.

She's sociable yet is a loner.

She's gentle yet tough.

She's passionate yet platonic.

Next year's headache in the making....this seed head had already managed to send off most of it's tiny parasols of seed before the lazy gardener, (guess who), could get to it...this year's beauty will be next year's headache...

I feel like I am a ghost

Drifting about in my own memories

Why is it that easy

To wander about in the past

Why is it that each recollection

Has become as painful

As an embedded shard of glass

It now seems routine

That I revisit old haunts

I used to know

Closer than my own heart

I have become a paradox of scars

That l live with each day

It is not only blood

That runs in my veins

But a river of loss

This image is from a series of photographs that I took at Alfriston Church in Sussex, UK, on a cold, windy day in October. I have mentioned before that I felt an unease at this place, and I think the images are a reflection of that. I wondered if anything or anybody could truly be at rest here, as this feeling came from some disturbance older than the church, embedded in the landscape, it seemed to me.

The weather added to my unsettled feeling, the wind swirling around the church, which is positioned on older sacred ground. The landscape seemed to attract as well as repel.

 

I have chosen to pair this image with Mozart: Requiem in D Minor, K. 626 - I. Introitus. Requiem aeternam. Please click on the link below for an immersive experience.

She is a paradox, a puzzle...

She is faithful and yet detached, she is committed and yet relaxed...

She loves everybody and yet no one, she is sociable and yet solitary...

She is gentle and yet tough, she is passionate and yet platonic...

In short, she is predictable in her inpredictability...
