FRONTPAGE AGAIN? Thank you all so much!!!!
Tekintsetek az égi madarakra, hogy nem vetnek, nem aratnak, sem csűrbe nem takarnak; és a ti mennyei Atyátok eltartja azokat. Máté 6, 26
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Mathew 6,26
Thank you my friends:

It seems so long ago now
That I was sitting here
Taking in everything
Taking in everything
I stopped to look around me
As far as I could see
Across this precious land
Shadows painted by the sun
I don't think I remember
How long I waited here
Watching everything
Watching everything
My thoughts began to wander
Then I realized
Every moment I had lived
Everything that I had seen
Pass like this moment now
Pass like this moment now
Its clear to me as now
Is the moment when I knew
That I can let go
Its time to let it go
With it came the feeling
Strange I'd waited for it
I think all my life
A thousand words brace for it
From my very soul I didn't feel alone.

standing watch until the sun will rise
I can't, I can't see this all as progress
how did we come this far?
when we see ourselves as deities
claim nature for ourselves
by our actions we betray the instincts in our race
by our blindness and stupidity we kill everything
we kill everything
can someone see our self destruction?
are we reminding ourselves that our existence is so delicate
that without this light we are no more
that without this light we've made we are no more
a million points of light
ascending to the sky
monuments in darkness
standing watch
until the sun will rise
we torch the earth until it bleeds
rain ashes from the sky
just to make a light that no one can see
we cut the earth until it bleeds
just to make a light that no one can see
just to make a light
we kill everything
by our blindness and stupidity
we kill everything
and in a thousand years what will be our legacy?

Lights and shadows in architecture is one of the thing that fI find more fascinating.
I wish to dedicate this shot (a very .. fresh! one - just taken on the way back home from work :-) - to all the photographers who are making my new group - urbanabstractions - a great one! (well, may be I shouldn't say it, but ... I'm so happy about it, so, please, forgive me! ;-D)
Thank you very, very much, and .. keep on posting!
btw - the horizontal line in the shot is an electric string - I was going to remove it, but then I found that somehow it could fit the composition ...
Last, but .. not least!:
what music fits architecture?
this is a very interesting new topic posted by daruma* in urbanabstractions discussions;
he proposed this one:
Zbigniew Preisner - L'Aurore - what is your favourite one?

Il nucleo più antico di Passignano sul Trasimeno è ancora oggi cinto dalle cerchia di mura medioevali che testimoniano in modo significativo lo sviluppo che il centro subì da piccolo borgo agricolo durante l'Impero romano al castello che, dopo la Signoria di Uguccione II nel 917, venne a lungo conteso fra Arezzo, Perugia e Firenze.
Pochi sono gli edifici storici della cittadina a causa delle distruzioni dovute ai bombardamenti della II guerra mondiale, rimangono infatti la quattrocentesca chiesa di San Rocco e quella eretta solo pochi anni più tardi, di San Bernardino. Da Passignano si raggiunge in pochi minuti di battello l'Isola Maggiore, sul Lago Trasimeno.

Ils ont beaucoup de retard cette année..!
il a fait beaucoup trop froid pendant le mois de Mars et en ce mois d'Avril cela continue avec en plus de la pluie et un gros déficit en ensoleillement..! (à se demander où est le réchauffement climatique)
c'est une photo qui a 8 ans déjà.,/
.................................................................................
They are very late this year..!
it was much too cold during the month of March and in this month of April it continues with more rain and a big lack of sunshine..! (to wonder where global warming is)
This is a photo that is 8 years old already..

Lo de la canción también es idea suya!!
Gracias Álvaro!!!
With the hot summer we all want to escape somewhere quiet and possibly "fresh" ... for me blue of course! This is a beautiful bay protected by the Arrabida mountains (Serra), a natural park very beautiful and full of tranquility (much needed) - I hope you enjoy it and have a great week!

"Non pretendo che la gioia non possa accompagnarsi alla bellezza; ma dico che la gioia è uno degli ornamenti più volgari, mentre la malinconia è della bellezza, per così dire, la nobile compagna, al punto che non so concepire un tipo di bellezza che non abbia in sé il dolore."
Charles Baudelaire
I have literally hundreds of hummingbird images as well as hundreds of flower images. In an effort to try to utilize some of the archived photos taking up my harddrive, I thought I'd try to combine the two.
Through the texture and layer process I used two photos and one texture as shown below.
1. Lupine photo taken this spring at Thomes Creek outside Corning, California
2. aubergine texture from www.flickr.com/photos/alicepopkorn/sets/72157605289948031/
3. Edited Anna's Hummingbird photo.

Here you see the "Se de Lisboa" the ancient cathedral of Lisbon, built upon an old Mosque just after Lisbon was conquered from the Moors in the 12th century A.C. by the english crusader Gilbert de Hastings; the title I gave to this photo is because this monument (today a mixture of many styles) has survived 3 earthquakes - even the big one of 1755. This is a typical view of the bright colours of the city and its amazing light, mixing old and new - this unique combination of styles and colours makes Lisbon a most attractive city to visit.
Do enjoy and have a great weekend!
