As the seasons change, some low-lying clouds remind me that stormy days are ahead. But for now, I enjoy the September colors at the end of the day.
"There is nothing permanent except change." ~ Heraclitus
Wave after wave
Will flow with the tide
And bury the world as it does
Tide after tide
Will flow and recede
Leaving life to go on
As it was......

Kunstgewerbemuseum (Museum of Decorative Arts),
Berlin
"Das Kunstgewerbemuseum ist das älteste seiner Art in Deutschland. Es beherbergt weltberühmte Zeugnisse des europäischen Kunsthandwerks und Designs, darunter prunkvolle Reliquiare aus Gold und Edelstein, kostbare Vasen aus Glas oder Porzellan, fein bestickte Kleider, detailreich intarsierte Möbel bis hin zu Klassikern modernen Industriedesigns. (...)
Das Haus am Kulturforum entstand bis 1985 nach den Entwürfen von Rolf Gutbrod, einem der führenden deutschen Architekten der 1960er-Jahre. Kennzeichnend für seine Architektur ist die Sichtbarkeit konstruktiver Elemente. Das Museum ist als "gebaute Landschaft" gedacht und nimmt mit seiner Begrünung Bezug auf den benachbarten Tiergarten. Während das Gebäude nach außen geschlossen wirkt, empfängt es den Eintretenden mit einem offenen Treppenhaus und großzügigen Ausstellungsräumen. (...)
Von 2012 bis 2014 wurde der Gutbrot-Bau vom Architekturbüro Kuehn Malvezzi in weiten Teilen umgestaltet." www.smb.museum/museen-und-einrichtungen/kunstgewerbemuseu...

First permanent establishments
In 1635, the first seigneurie was granted on the territory of Cape-Rouge, but revoked the following year by the Company of One Hundred Associates. However, by 1638 Paul Le Jeune, a missionary Jesuit, had noted in The Jesuit Relations the presence of some families in the valley.[1] Between 1647 and 1652, the seigneuries of Maur, on the west, and Gaudarville, in the east, were established on the territory. From that moment, based on taxable citizens, the settlement on the lands of Cap-Rouge are established. The village formed is served by the parishes of Ancienne-Lorette in (1678) to the north; of Saint-Augustin in (1691) on the west; and of Sainte-Foy (1698) in the east.
Geography
The beach of Plage Jacques Cartier and the cliffs of Cap-Rouge.
The name of Cap-Rouge, meaning "red cape", comes from its cliffs facing the Saint-Lawrence river and made of schist rock bearing a reddish tint. The other main topographic feature of Cap-Rouge is the Rivière du Cap Rouge valley where are concentrated some historic buildings as well the archeological remains of a pottery workshop active from 1860 to 1892. It is believed that until the end of its operations the workshop mainly used imported clay rather than the local one, which has a rather red hue.
The Cap-Rouge area is located to the south of the Canadian Shield and Laurentian Mountains, at the confluence of the geological regions of the Saint Lawrence Lowlands and of the northern Appalachians. It mostly sits at the western foot of the Quebec promontory, in the way of the Logan's Line - an inactive fracture in the Earth's crust first documented by Sir William Edmond Logan.
This is my postcard for Angharad. She thinks I'm always alone on the beach as I scare people away !!! This was taken after sunset on Hosta beach, when this group of "silly ladies" asked me to take some photos of them . I'm amazed they came out and were in focus , as it was quite dark. They were celebrating Rose's birthday, and were just a wonderful group of "silly ladies ". I did warn them I don't take photos of people. Permanently lonely is by Phosphorescent.
Day 199/365:
Macro Monday - Wavy lines
This is a section of a plug in air freshener casing. I found it in the cupboard recently and after thinking I wasn't going to find anything for the MM theme, I remembered this had wavy lines. It's quite grainy as hand held with very high ISO. Couldn't be faffing with a tripod in this heat. I also added a texture (my own) which added to the grainy look and enhanced the aqua colour. HMM
Closed permanently in 1994, this 1926-built 500 seat theater is currently undergoing renovation. At present the metal facing above the marquee has been removed to expose the original architecture.

Permanent guest in our apartment, and as a cat food gourmet appreciated the treats we brought from Germany. The landlady found him as little cat with disabilities in the forest ("il bosco"), took him home and brought him up. Absolutely trusting and cuddly, his handicap makes him even more lovable - quite a little heartbreaker!
Dauergast in unserer Ferienwohnung, wußte als Feinschmecker die mitgebrachten Leckerlis zu schätzen. Die Vermieterin hat ihn als kleine Katze mit Behinderung im Wald ("il bosco") gefunden, mitgenommen und aufgezogen. Total zutraulich und verschmust, seine Behinderung macht ihn noch liebenswürdiger - ein richtiger kleiner Herzensbrecher!
Growing up in Ireland I was permanently cold in the small country town that I grew up in in the 60s/70s. I would literally hug the radiator at the back of the classroom at my convent school looking out the window at the moody rainy sky and dreaming of warmer climes and blue skies. I would skip class and bury my head in books by the convent library heater and read books by the likes of Lawrence Durrell and dreamed of the calm blue mediterranean sky and seas.
As soon as I finished school - I ran out of Ireland , on a one way ticket, to travel and chase the sun and the warmth and ended up choosing Australia - and ultimately Bondi Beach - as the place where I lay my hat. Up until four years ago - pre camera days - it was the summer and the spring that were my seasons.
But now the autumn and the winter have become my favourite - the skies, the weather, the surf , the moodiness, the deserted beaches.
And now...well now, I keep putting off going back to Ireland as I am afraid, if I return, I will not leave . The camera has led me down a path where I now love mist, rain, mood, changing light, stormy wild seas, the empty beaches ...the greens .
It does appear my fine flickr friends that you can take the girl out of the country........but not the country out of the girl ;).

A different mockingbird from the previous image photographed from below.
The northern mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos) is the only mockingbird commonly found in North America. This bird is mainly a permanent resident, but northern birds may move south during harsh weather.
This species has rarely been observed in Europe. The northern mockingbird is known for its mimicking ability, as reflected by the meaning of its scientific name, "many-tongued mimic".
The northern mockingbird has gray to brown upper feathers and a paler belly. Its tail and wings have white patches which are visible in flight.
The northern mockingbird is an omnivore. It eats both insects and fruits. It is often found in open areas and forest edges but forages in grassy land.
The northern mockingbird breeds in southeastern Canada, the United States, northern Mexico, the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands and the Greater Antilles. It is replaced further south by its closest living relative, the tropical mockingbird. The Socorro mockingbird, an endangered species, is also closely related, contrary to previous opinion.
The northern mockingbird is listed as of Least Concern according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
The northern mockingbird is known for its intelligence. A 2009 study showed that the bird was able to recognize individual humans, particularly noting those who had previously been intruders or threats. Birds recognize their breeding spots and return to areas in which they had greatest success in previous years. Urban birds are more likely to demonstrate this behavior.
Finally, the mockingbird is influential in United States culture, being the state bird of five states, appearing in book titles, songs and lullabies, and making other appearances in popular culture. – Wikipedia
We have a local mall that is in transition. It is still open, but barely. Out of 100 stores only about 12 are open. Only 1 of its 4 anchors remain. This section of the mall is permanently closed off. It is sad, because I remember when the mall first opened.
What's really interesting is that across the street there is an open-air shopping center that is busy. Supposedly the city has plans for the mall, but they have stalled.
