This is one of the major tourist destinations in South india.
The great Indian Philosopher Swami Vivekananda’s memorial is built in a small island like rock 200 meters from the shore. A very great building and other halls are constructed in this rock. There is a meditation hall where people who wants to meditate in a calm and composed atmosphere can perform their meditation inside it. Boat facilities are available for the tourists.
Swamy Vivekananda came to kanyakumari on 24.2.1892 before his departure for Chicago to participate in the World Religious Conference in 1893. He sat on meditation on this rock for two days and became a powerful spiritual leader and philosopher. Vivekananda Rock Memorial has been built in 1970 and is a blend of various architectural styles of India. The memorial was constructed in 2081 working days with an average of about 650 men working under the supervision of Sri. S.K.Achari.

A great tree,...
He might even be a poet....
Le philosophe dit:
Amis, allez voir le poète,...
Et le poète raconte,...:
Qui a su aimer la Terre,..
a aimé,...L'éternité!....

Biei, Hokkaido is known for it's rolling fields and strangely isolated vegetation. One such tree is the Philosopher's Tree.
Ambulans Tolle philosophus .
Harmonias abstinentibus crudelitatis primitiva fabulas ,
fanaticorum deliria sacrificia fieri ,
quod communicant in cordibus stupebunt,
skepticism ut paradoxa facit mysteria flectere ,
cum signa contrariam satus super,
coepit benigniorem tuus contemptionem ostendunt ?
Cuius minimum gustum elit ,
Præcipitabit mortem tuam avertis inconcinnus doctrina ?
Finge hæsitationibus tuum sicut INDIFFERENS ora tumescere
indifferentiam intellectualiter periculosum general suus tenuit ,
propter venias ad obediendum GREGARIUS singuli quaerentes ,
jam tenaces philosophizers nolentes audire ,
ridiculum sententia tua pereas verbis subtilius hinc ,
haec TUMOROSUS ones designare obligando cessantibus oculo pietatis ,
Hactenus principia superfluo systematice irridebant values ,
derangement temperamenta ornare impatienter profundum abyssi ,
Dubius aures oratione opponit male,
Philosophus de facto indignatus explicationes apparet ,
Satis fucata haec sunt gradus ,
ambulare a repudium monstra furorem scholis ,
quibus animalium non vivere stridor dentium.

Can you help in a dermination ? I have strange amazing stones, I think they must be somewhat related to galena, but in a rare form ... limonite goethite pseudomorphs of galena with a path on marcassite pyrite ... is that possible ? some have the same core colour as a marcassite inside, but the outside is crystallised in galena forms ... ! they are find in limestone (old ocean 150 000 000 years old, fossil are commonly found) They are brownish red to black and rarely oxidised pyrite colour when freshly extracted from the broken calcareous stones.

Took this photo, using a Contax 60mm F/2.8 Carl Zeiss Makro-Planar T* MM C/Y Mount Lens on my K5 (thanks to the Multi-mount PK+MM for Pentax weather sealed DSLR). (pict is processed and cropped.)
I use these great Carl Zeiss lenses : Distagon* 35mmF2.8 ; Sonnar* 135mmF2.8 ; a Planar* 50mmF1.4, and Makro-Planar 60mm F/2.8 on my Pentax K-5 thanks to this system !
The nicest parts of this long sakura path I think is where the canal curves.
The canal waters are very clean, you can clearly see large wild carp feeding on waterweeds at the canal bottom.
Tackling colors with this RAW, moving away from Sony defaults, beyond mere tweaks to hue and WB or colour balance, got to experiment.
The previous shot was still with default Sony colour profile.
Can't help but to also wonder if it's the overly cold colour signature of this Sony Zeiss 24-70mm f4.0, my shots with this lens never grew on me.
Described as a portrait of a Philosopher from 5th century. (Aphrodisias Museum )
The ancient city of Aphrodisias, once the capital of the province of Lydia, is located near the village of Geyre in the district of Karacasu . The history of the city can be traced back to the early bronze age and there is even clear evidence of a chalcolithic culture prior to the 3rd millennium B.C. The use of the name Aphrodisias began after the 3rd century B.C., in the Hellenistic period.
The wealth and cultural and political importance of the city is clearly attested by the size and magnificence of the buildings of which it is composed.The name Aphrodisias is derived from Aphrodite, the goddess of nature, beauty, love and plenty, and was one of the most famous cult centres of the goddess.
Aphrodisias was a center for the arts, specifically sculpture. The Aphrodisias School of Sculpture had a distinctive style and was very well circulated throughout the Greek and Roman world. Statues with corresponding signatures have been discovered from Spain to present day Germany and virtually everywhere in the Roman world.
The Aphrodisias Sculpting School was one of the most famous sculpting school in antiquity. Among the provocative pieces preserved today are statues of Aphrodite cradling a child like a loving mother; Hercules rippling his muscles; and a woman weeping, which symbolized the subjugation of the city by Rome. Any rich noblemen who donated money to the school was honored with a statue, and there are plenty of these, as well as some magnificent friezes and sarcophagi, in the museum.
The Aphrodisias sculpting school thrived for 600 years, and the high-quality marble for the sculptures was found in abundance in quarries only a few miles away. The sculptors, some scholars claim, were the world's the first true artists, meaning they didn't just copy other statues like many Greek and Roman sculptors; instead they made unique creations.
