“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
-The Little Prince, by the French author, airplane pilot, and war hero Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: “L’essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.”
Flickr lounge: patterns. Traveling and was stuck in airport, so … only with phone, so cannot add to thread….or if someone knows how to do that through the app, let me know.
Beautiful patterning created by the tide and waves in a sloping area of the beach sand at Clam Harbour Beach. This is a vertical version of the same photo posted earlier.
UN PARTICOLARE DELLA CITTA' VECCHIA.
Il centro storico di Valencia coincide con il distretto Ciutat Vella: in valenciano vuol dire "città vecchia" e comprende i più importanti monumenti storici. All’interno della Ciutat Vella sorge il famoso Barrio del Carmen, cuore della vita cittadina e centro del divertimento notturno.
Tra i quartieri del centro storico ricordiamo La Seu, zona di Valencia in cui sorge la sede storica della Cortes Valencianas, l’organo legislativo della Comunità valenciana. Ne La Xerea invece spicca la Basilica de la Virgen de los Desamparados.

Pastel on newsprint
I made this shortly after I started doing art at age 56. There was no preconceived idea. I just picked up a piece of pastel and started moving my hand and arm on the paper. This is the image that resulted. When I showed it to the teacher of an art class I had just started, he said "What were you on when you did THAT?", lol! The answer: nothing. I was just following the impulses as they popped up within. I made this in the horizontal orientation. It was only after it was done and I turned it to this vertical orientation that I saw that it resembled a serpent.
At the time, and for years prior, I spent many hours each day in mantra meditation, pranayama breathing, and yoga asanas, and had experienced many moments of expanded awareness and bliss. But I knew almost nothing about kundalini or its awakening.
I now know that the Sanskrit word "kundalini" means "coiled one". In the Dharma religions, it is a primal energy, or shakti, located at the base of the spine. Different spiritual traditions teach methods of "awakening" kundalini for the purpose of reaching spiritual enlightenment. Kundalini is described as lying "coiled" at the base of the spine, represented as either a goddess or sleeping serpent waiting to be awakened. ... To me, this image reflects the creative phase of the creation/maintenance/destruction cycle.
Kundalini awakening is said to result in deep meditation, enlightenment and bliss. This awakening involves the Kundalini physically moving up the central channel to reach within the Sahasrara Chakra at the top of the head. Many systems of yoga focus on the awakening of Kundalini through meditation, pranayama breathing, the practice of asana and chanting of mantras. In physical terms, many report the Kundalini experience to be a feeling of electric current running along the spine.

Also, " ... The Supreme Brahman is described as the swallower, devourer (attā = soul) of the universe; for just as he creates and maintains it, he destroys it also. But where does it go when it is destroyed? One answer may be that it simply vanishes. But the Upanishads are opposed to such an idea of destruction. Only the forms and shapes of the world are gone, but not the being of the world, which is the Being of the Brahman. Then what happens to the world? It is absorbed, assimilated to the Brahman. The Brahman swallows, absorbs, assimilates the world to itself."

This is a photo of patterns in the coastal bedrock near Clam Harbour Beach. The scrapes were made by the movement of glaciers 10,000 years ago.

I love patterns and minimalism, I have many images taken over the years.
Some are more abstract than others.
Snow and frost are great at setting off details we otherwise pass without seeing.
Have a glorious day and thank you, M, (*_*)

The river of Tagliamento makes some wonderful scenes along its course. These are the broad scree fields near Venzone. The river course there is each year different. The picture was taken on the summit of Monte San Simeone.
Most random is the pattern of fallen leaves, but the brick colors look also somewhat random. iPhone 8+ photo.
Settembre è uno dei mesi più belli, per i cambiamenti della natura e per i contrasti, fra una fine di estate ed un principio d'autunno... e le albe portano sempre due o tre versi di poesia.

Inspired by this week's SSC subject , patterns , someone indoors produced this Sanntangle for me to photograph .
What is a Sanntangle ??
" There are times when life gets too much and one just needs to stop for a moment and realign , a sort of living the moment kind of thing .
Tangling ( that is creating simple patterns to form an interesting abstract design ) can do just that .
It relaxes and helps to restore a positive mindset ensuring that one can be free to be more creative and then to continue with everyday life .
That said , the time spent can be productive resulting in something to look back on and admire the beautiful result and even be used for a card or framed to see whenever one wishes "
( adapted text from the Sandra Rushton starter booklet on Senntangling ) .
For my chosen shot for the challenge , you will have to wait until Saturday , it was a bit of a tussle trying to choose which shot to use for the challenge .
Found this strange frost pattern on an ordinary window. At a cottage that has not been used for months
