You just cannot miss this LARGE ON BLACK: The Heliades I
Dear Flickr friends,
As promised, this is the first image coming from the project I've been working on, 'The Heliades'.
Here is the description of the series, the reason which stands/stood behind these works.
" While reading Ovid’s Metamorphoses, I came across an episode that changed my vision of my surroundings forever: the ‘Heliades’, daughters of the Sun, after the death of their brother Phaeton are transformed into Poplar trees on the banks of the Po river.
I have always loved to walk on those banks, but now, every time I stop and listen, it almost feels like I can hear their laments and whispers in the wind."
I'm also pleased to say that this series received four honorable mentions at the 2012 International Photography Awards.
Some self promotion: don't forget to take a look at My Facebook Page: Have a look and help me growing by sharing and liking it!
Hope you're all doing great.

Passerelle Simone de Beauvoir. Sudddenly, all people, coming and going, formed a perfect line of silhouettes. I took a shot and felt uneasy: there was really a weird sense of them being after me, vaguely threatening, oppressive, like an army of zombies with no face in the backlight ! A second later, the pattern broke down and they were just people enjoying the late sun...

i oftentimes look far and wide for magic in my life only to realize that it is everywhere and anywhere where i happen to be. the past week spent with four dear friends, great photographers, whom i've only known virtually on Flickr has been magical. we were blessed with gorgeous sun moments. the rains managed to stop when it was time for us to get our cameras and shoot. and we shared many a joyous moment. pretending to be castaways on this island. having a hard time opening a can of tuna. walking barefoot on a shore strewn with shells, driftwoods, black corals, flip-flops and what-have-you's. it was a magical time. and at that very instance when i took this shot, i was saying a prayer of thanksgiving for all the magical moments - and the friendships - which certainly will keep me on the hold for a lifetime.
and to those of you who haven't yet met my friends, here they are with me in this now famous jump shot - Mirror, mirror on the shore. . .

This was taken at Bristol Zoo. I'd gone to take pictures of the animals, and came back with, almost exclusively, pictures of people. So much for 'Watching the Animals', eh? : )
This was a deceptively busy walkway, but I managed to grab a couple of shots while sitting on the opposite bench.
Update:
At The Zoo : Watching The Animals is the image which, in significant part, provided the catalyst for the renewed enthusiasm in my photography.
Last year it made the finalists [and was featured in] The Independent Photography Competition. Then, this summer [2008], after being nudged by a good friend, I entered two images [among 1000s] into the Tate’s Street Or Studio competition, and it won through again. So, for a few weeks in the summer, you could see this image on show in Tate Modern! And, if that wasn’t surreal enough, in November it was projected to a size of about 15feet by 12feet for the official Street or Studio : A Photobook launch in Tate Britain… with the Turner Prize candidates through one adjacent archway, and a Francis Bacon retrospective the other… just bizarre! : )
Here's a link to the Tate's photobook: www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/387768
This is a fleshy perennial which grows on coastal cliffs and rocks ! The pale pink 5-petalled flower (8 - 12mm across) differs from other Sea spurreys in that it doesn't have a white centre ! The fact that the flowers have equal size petals and sepals also helps to differentiate this wildflower ! Each flower has 10 stamens, the narrow, flattened leaves have fine points and the plant, which blooms from June to September, reaches about 20cm high ! It is one of the native plants of Ireland and it belongs to the Caryophyllaceae family !
www.wildflowersofireland.net/index.php
Having purchased a wild flower book late last year, I was attracted to it being sectioned by colour, I decided to give it a go and found this little gem ! As part of I.D. clarification I found an interesting site from which I took the above info' and have E-mailed, providing my flickr account link, hoping that I' m right ~

29-years old MD-82 face to face with spotter at Poznań-Ławica (EPPO/POZ). Flight H6 5849 from Varna (VAR).
_______________________________________________
Piątkowy poranek, kilka minut po godzinie szóstej rano, pora można by rzec nieco abstrakcyjna... pasja jest jednak pasją... czas nie gra roli
Na poznańskiej Ławicy ląduje niecodzienny gość prosto z 🇧🇬Bułgarii - McDonell Douglas MD-82✈️ w barwach European Air Charter.
Nie licząc jednej maszyny zarejestrowanej na 🇺🇦Ukrainie dla Bravo Airways, Bułgaria jest jedynym europejskim operatorem tego typu samolotów. Dwie maszyny należą do ALK Airlines ( LZ-ADV, LZ-DEO), pozostałe latają w barwach European Air Charter. Obecnie przewoźnik posiada 7 samolotów MD-82 z średnią wieku 29 lat.
Piątkowy okaz po raz pierwszy wzbił się w powietrze 1 lutego 1993 roku, początkowo latał dla włoskiej Alitalia, od 2010 przeszedł w posiadanie bułgarskiego operatora. ( www.planespotters.net/airframe/mcdonnell-douglas-md-82-lz... )
Sam przewoźnik do stycznia 2021 nosił nazwę Bułgarian Air Charter, jest spółką akcyjną z siedzibą w Sofii, założoną 22 lata temu (2000 rok). European Air Charter współpracuje z wiodącymi europejskimi touroperatorami, m.in. jak TUI, DER Touristik/Exim, Coral Travel Poland, FTI. To już kolejny sezon, kiedy możemy podziwiać tą konstrukcję na polskich lotniskach. Konstrukcję, która zapewne niebawem odchodzić będzie do przeszłości.

Just want to say hi to you guys ^-^
I bought a photography book about "bokeh" today ....and it made me want to hold my camera again :p
I’m going to be taking another break from Flickr. I need to put my head on straight, and this site is only distracting me from that right now. I need to start taking care of my health (which has been suffering lately) and well-being, and I need to start paying attention to school, at least until this semester is over. I'm okay, trust me, but this is just not good for me right now, if I want to keep my grades up, as well as my own personal happiness.
I know, I know I take breaks almost constantly, and I always say the same thing, but I’m going to try to stick to it right now, at least for a little while. As always, I will still be coming onto Flickr occasionally to follow your streams, but I have to stay away as much as I can right now, for various reasons. I will be back soon.
TTFN.
Thanks for your visit and comment!!!

Sella del diavolo.
La leggenda racconta che un giorno i diavoli, attratti dal fascino e dalla bellezza del golfo di Cagliari se ne impadronirono, Dio mandò allora i suoi angeli prediletti guidati dall'arcangelo Michele per scacciare Lucifero e i suoi adepti, ma nella fuga quest'ultimo perse la sua sella che cadde e si pietrificò, il promontorio fu quindi chiamato sella del diavolo e il golfo tanto ambito golfo degli angeli.
Veduta dalla zona del pomolo della sella.
La torre in primo piano è stata edificata durante la dominazione spagnola (1280 circa) ed è denominata del poueht, che in catalano significa pozzetto, per via di un'adiacente cisterna di origine punica, denominazione in seguito estesa a tutto il litorale col nome di Poetto.
Guardate la cartina, vi impressionerà la sua posizione.
Oggi sarò un pò assente. Ci sarà la laurea di mia figlia, in Biologia.
Tre figli e tre lauree, non male!
So today was my second day in Edinburgh, still getting used to this whole driving on the left side rule. Quite odd to get used too especially when you see little old ladies driving down the street and you think to yourself "NOBODIES DRIVING THAT CAR!!!" But I do have to say the round-abouts are quite nice keeps traffic moving and they are a bit fun to drive around.
So this is the window in my room and I was thinking it would be a great location for a photo. I almost used it last night but then decided I wanted some daylight for it. So I took this!
Tomorrow we head up to Loch Ness and I sure hope the Loch Ness Monster makes an appearance cause it would be quite swell to take a photo of it. Maybe even hop in and take my 365 with it! haha.
Anyhow hope your doing well or whomever read this far! :)

Lake Pichola, situated in Udaipur city in the Indian state of Rajasthan, is an artificial fresh water lake, created in the year 1362 AD, named after the nearby Picholi village.It is one of the several contiguous lakes, and developed over the last few centuries in and around the famous Udaipur city. The lakes around Udaipur were primarily created by building dams to meet the drinking water and irrigation needs of the city and its neighborhood. Two islands, Jag Niwas and Jag Mandir are located within Pichola Lake, and have been developed with several palaces to provide views of the lake.
Three of the numerous lakes found in the vicinity of Udaipur which connect with the Pichola lake built by Maharana Dharma Chand Pichholiya and the Saroop Sagar Lake connected by an arched bridge built by Maharana Swaroop Singh (1842-1861) which in turn connects to the Fateh Sagar Lake, the crystal watered lake in the midst of tree lined hills and the smaller Arsi vilas.

Hello Flickr!
Last weekend Scott and I went to our familiar haunt of Pacific Grove/Monterey to celebrate my birthday a couple of weeks early (there was a sale at our favorite b&b!). It was a gorgeous weekend and very relaxing for us both.
Plus, Scott COMPLETELY SHOCKED ME by surprising me with a 50mm f/1.4! He put it on my camera while I was out of the room and it took me over 12 hours to notice it. He was playing a game of chess with himself at one point and I felt compelled to shoot his hand with some of the chess pieces. Upon trying to use the focus ring on what I thought was my 50mm f/1.8 (I've broken two of those this year, btw--and that one was my third), I became utterly confused. Why did this lens feel, look and act differently than I remembered? I then conducted a thorough inspection of the lens, slowly realizing that no I was not dreaming -- it actually WAS a 1.4! :D
I love Scott and his kindness, generosity and ability to surprise me ♥ My birthday isn't until a week from tomorrow, either!
"A universe comes to contribute to our happiness when reverie comes to accentuate our repose. You must tell the man who wants to dream well to begin by being happy. Then reverie plays out its veritable destiny; it becomes poetic reverie and by it, in it, everything becomes beautiful. If the dreamer had "the gift" he would turn his reverie into a work. And this work would be grandiose since the dreamed world is automatically grandiose." from The Poetics of Reverie by Gaston Bachelard
This one is for GERI aka Born 2 Be Mild. I don't know when and how I stumbled upon Geri's stream but I surely am glad I did. I could never forget her 5-CARROT RING POST. If I recall that was the very first of her photos I commented on. And I knew right there and then that I had to stay connected to this wonderful lady - now a treasured friend - because if there is someone on Flickr who can make me laugh, she certainly can. She may not know it, but it was Geri who inspired me to capture droplets on flowers and leaves. And that is why I am dedicating this droplet, this "dreamed world" to her. I hope she finds it worthy.
It's 2:30am
I can't sleep
and I'm in an editing mood.
This picture is from awhile ago. I just rediscovered it.
and I was thinking a lot tonight and I got a lot of inspiration from other photos today.
I want to start writing a lot more on here. I guess you could call it journaling. But I want to look back years from now and know what I was thinking today....about this picture, life, anything.
I remember this day perfectly (in this picture) Eric took me to this park. I wish I could remember what it was called but it was amazing. This lake was huge and it couldn't have been a nicer day. and we rode the bike there which was even better. but I just remember feeling so free. Everybody who was there was just off doing their own thing. I saw this boy sitting on this bench singing and playing his guitar, and I envyed him for a minute. It just seemed like he didnt have a care in the world for that moment and he probably didnt, and then I realized neither did I. becasue I had everything I needed right there. I had the person I love more than anything in the world and who loves me back right there with me, and I was doing what I loved, taking pictures and running in the grass barefoot. and I wish everyday could be like this day but I know they won't be, and that's why I want to write about it, so I can come back and read about it, and relive it when I need to.

I keep on fear, keep on loathing
Nothing brings it on I keep on falling
Decide what it is I can not find
It's subsides what you make it
Never feel like you're gonna break it
It's gonna be alright alright
Sleep until the morning comes
The sun will warm your soul
Sleep until the morning comes for you
Til the morning
it's alright
I can walk into the sunlight, into the day,
I feel it falling, nothing comes to my mind
Bring it on in a different tide
I feel alright, alright
I feel strong, i feel rigid
It's nothing to do with the vision
Oh feels so right, so right
Sleep on tight, sleep on tight
Sleep until the sunlight
Sleep on tight, til the sunlight burns you happy
Til the sunlight burns you happy, till the sunlight burns a happy whole in
Your heart,
In your heart
In your heart...

Il borgo medievale oggi abbandonato fu fondato molto probabilmente dai Longobardi.
Realizzato in posizione elevata S.Severino si trova in una posizione altamente strategica, infatti il suo castello (oggi ancora visibile) formava con quello di Palinuro e Molpa una cinta difensiva che si rivelò di importanza vitale nella guerra Angioino Aragonese.
Il villaggio appare molto semplice, seguendo la strada principale si arriva in uno spiazzo dove si affaccia l´antica chiesetta dedicata a Santa Maria degli Angeli e San Severino risalente al XIX secolo.
The medieval village left today was founded by Longobards.
Elevated S.Saverino position, it is in higly strategic position, in fact its castle (today still visible) formed with that of Palinuro´s and Molpa´s a defensive wall that reveled of vital importance in the war Angioino Aragonese.
The village appeared very simple , following the main street arrive in a room where an old little church dedicated to Santa Maria degli Angeli and San Severino dates from the nineteenth century.

El petit municipi de l'Estany, situat al nord-oest del Bages i en ple altiplà del Moianès, ocupa un indret frescal que es caracteritza per la seva alçada i per una pluviositat més gran que la resta de la comarca. A la població, situada a 870 m., s'hi accedeix sobretot per la carretera que s'enfila cap al nord de Moià. Després d'una àrea de grans pagesies disperses entre boscos i conreus, molt aviat s'entra en un pla ben aprofitat on destaca la població de l'Estany. El nucli de l'Estany, arrecerat al nord per un serrat, s'alça a la vora d'on hi havia un antic estany, dessecat l'any 1570 per ordre de l'abat Carles de Cardona per tal d'escórrer les aigües i evitar així els focus d'epidèmies que comportava. L'estany encara es torna a omplir en època de grans pluges. Les cases són de pedra i constitueixen un bon exemple de poble rural, gairebé muntanyenc. Els visitants van a l'Estany atrets pel seu bon clima i per l'extraordinari monestir romànic de Santa Maria, amb la seva església restaurada, un claustre magnífic amb 72 capitells de temes bíblics, heràldics i florístics, i un petit museu annex on es resumeix la història del cenobi. Altres indrets destacables del municipi són el Puig Rodó i el Puig de la Caritat, i la diversitat de fonts naturals que hi ha. Les festes i tradicions més notables són la Festa Major (8 de setembre), la Fira (8 de desembre) i el Pessebre Vivent.
El pequeño municipio de l'Estany, situado al noroeste del Bages y en pleno altiplano del Moianès, ocupa un lugar fresco que se caracteriza por su altura y por una pluviosidad mayor que el resto de la comarca. En la población, situada a 870 m., se accede sobre todo por la carretera que sube hacia el norte de Moià. Después de un área de grandes campesinas dispersas entre bosques y cultivos, muy pronto se entra en un plan bien aprovechado donde destaca la población de l'Estany. El núcleo de l'Estany, protegido al norte por una loma, se alza a orillas de donde había un antiguo lago, desecado en 1570 por orden del abad Carles de Cardona para escurrir las aguas y evitar así los focos de epidemias que comportaba. El lago aún se vuelve a llenar en época de grandes lluvias. Las casas son de piedra y constituyen un buen ejemplo de pueblo rural, casi montañoso. Los visitantes al Lago atraídos por su buen clima y por el extraordinario monasterio románico de Santa María, con su iglesia restaurada, un claustro magnífico con 72 capiteles de temas bíblicos, heráldicos y florísticos, y un pequeño museo anexo donde se resume la historia del cenobio. Otros lugares destacables del municipio son el Puig Rodó y el Puig de la Caridad, y la diversidad de fuentes naturales que hay. Las fiestas y tradiciones más notables son la Fiesta Mayor (8 de septiembre), la Feria (8 de diciembre) y el Pesebre Viviente.
The small town of Lake, located northwest of Bages and full Moianès plateau, occupies a cool place that is characterized by its height and a higher rainfall than the rest of the region. In the town, located 870 m above is accessed by the road that climbs north of Moia. After a large area of scattered peasant between forests and crops, soon entered into a plan which highlights the best advantage of the lake population. The core of the lake, sheltered on the north by a serrated stands at the edge where there was an ancient lake dried up in 1570 by order of Abbot Charles Cardona to drain water and prevent outbreaks of epidemics entailed. The lake is still refills at times of heavy rainfall. The houses are stone and are a good example of rural village, almost mountainous. The visitors were attracted to the lake for its good climate and the extraordinary Romanesque monastery of Santa Maria, with its restored church, a magnificent cloister with 72 capitals of biblical themes, floristic and arms, and a small museum in which there are summarizes the history of the monastery. Other notable places are the town's Round Puig and Puig de la Caridad, and diversity of natural resources there. The festivities and traditions most notably the Festival (September 8), Fair (December 8) and the Living Nativity.
More Mist when viewed On Black
Soms baden je gedachten en dromen in de mist, zijn de contouren niet zo scherp en afgelijnd als je zelf willen zou.
Maar als de mist optrekt, dan vuren de ogen terug en flakkert de gezonde rebellie gedempt.
Vorig jaar organiseerden we op mijn werk een veiling van talenten en gekkigheden in het kader
van Music For Life : www.youtube.com/watch?v=bY1mqoCVVV0&feature=related
Miel bood het hoogste bedrag voor een mini-shoot en na een jaar vol mist, trokken we 2 weken geleden eindelijk, een zondagochtend voor dag en dauw ,op pad.
Toeval of niet, de Lierse polder verstilde in dichte mist, en waar de Grote en Kleine Nete samenvloeien schitterde er die ochtend geen zilveren knoop*, maar vonkten ogen vol vastberadenheid.
BTW als je een straffe freelance strateeg zoekt, dan is hij dé man: wavelab.be/

This is Eligh, he lives in the wood's near Shepton Mallet.. i met him at a small music festival in a field where some friends were playing a gig.
I approached him and asked to take his photo, he replied with a beaming toothles smile yes !..he said he only agreed to let me take his photo because i had the decency to ask first and not just snap away without asking.. this would result in the camera stealing his soul

I Just Wanna Say Thanks To Everyone For All The Support For My Pictures. I've Had A Blast Checking All Your Streams And Gotten So Much Inspiration. I'm Gonna Be Gone For A Few Days On A Road Trip Down The Coast To Big Sur! I'm Excited About The Trip And Really Need The Vacation! :D
Anyways This Is A Shot Of My Palo Alto Sunrise That I Dug Up And Did A Quick Tone Map In Photomatix. Its the 1020 Again Shot From The D90 On A Tripod! To be Honest I Hate Shooting On Tripods But I Guess It Just Goes With The Territory. Anyways I'm off for my trip, hate to post and run but I wanted to THANK YOU all again for all the feedback and helping my last shot be my 3rd front page! I'm Still Amazed That Shots I Take Can Share Such Wonderful Company.
Thank You All
Hope You Enjoy It :D
In case you haven't caught on to what's happening, I taped the fortune from my crappy fortune cookie to the mirror, and then made an attempt to get macro-esque with it. Just trying something new. Actually, I didn't even eat Chinese last night... wasn't even supposed to be my cookie, but if it's sitting on the kitchen counter, you snooze you lose, ha.
Since uploading this, it means I'm officially caught up from posting backlog which is a wonderful, wonderful thing and a great feeling. Over the past two days, I've been watching videos my contacts have posted in the Hi, I'm... group. Just have to say they are amazing, and Flickr really is a great community. Some people outside of the Flickr world don't seem understand, but you guys really are great friends and just awesome people, who have great personalities that take fabulous photos.

Reial Santuari de Nostra Senyora de la Font de la Salut.
La història del Real Santuari va començar amb l'edificació d'una petita capella en 1384. La Font de la Salut, comença a ser coneguda més enllà de les fronteres comarcals. Il·lustres personatges de la història d'Espanya com el papa Alexandre VI, Carles V i Felip II, entre uns altres, amb la seva visita i interès pel santuari, van afavorir que entre els segles XV i XVIII estigués acabat aquest impressionant conjunt. L'ermita té dos accessos amb portades adintelades. Remata l'edifici amb una espadanya de l'antic temple gòtic del 1439. El seu interior és d'una sola nau dividida en quatre trams amb creuer. Arcs de mig punt en la nau i arc triomfal en la capçalera. En la capella major es troba el camarí de la Verge i al capdamunt, als peus, el cor amb barana de fusta del segle XVIII. Entre la seva decoració, sobresurten les pintures al fresc atribuïdes tradicionalment als Guilló, encara que la historiografia moderna ha revelat que no són obra d'aquests artistes. El seu estil és de caràcter figuratiu-alegòric quan tracta els personatges bíblics, i un to més narratiu, en les escenes de la Verge de la Font de la Salut. Són també importants, les yeseries daurades amb motius de rocalla, així com les restes d'un fris de sòcols de Manises.
Segons compte la tradició, en el segle XIV, va tenir lloc l'aparició a dos pastors d'una imatge mariana, dintre de la deu d'aigües curatives que allí es troba. Des de llavors, els romers de nombrosos municipis de l'entorn, recorren tots els anys aquest camí, jalonat per set creus de terme que simbolitzen els Set Dolors de la Verge.

Desde entonces, los romeros de numerosos municipios del entorno, recorren todos los años este camino, jalonado por siete cruces de término que simbolizan los Siete Dolores de la Virgen.
Non sto pensando a niente
Non sto pensando a niente,
e questa cosa centrale, che a sua volta non è niente,
mi è gradita come l'aria notturna,
fresca in confronto all'estate calda del giorno.
Che bello, non sto pensando a niente!
Non pensare a niente
è avere l'anima propria e intera.
Non pensare a niente
è vivere intimamente
il flusso e riflusso della vita...
Non sto pensando a niente.
E' come se mi fossi appoggiato male.
Un dolore nella schiena o sul fianco,
un sapore amaro nella bocca della mia anima:
perché, in fin dei conti,
non sto pensando a niente,
ma proprio a niente,
a niente...
- Fernando Pessoa

Listening Crepuscolaria - Otto Ohm
Mi chiedo cosa lascerà
l’estate dopo il suo rumore
dopo un’attesa così lunga per raggiungerla
non sembra mai così speciale
Ti chiamerò solo se chiamerai
e ci sarò solo se ci sarai
Crepuscolari come le illusioni
svanito il giorno solo cattivi pensieri
il ricordo di un’estate che si arena sulla spiaggia
come collanine rotte sulla sabbia
rivivere il ritorno come cambiamento
la partenza come senza ritorno
alla fine dell’estate ti rimane dentro
il sapore delle libertà che in fondo hai scelto
D’estate non c’è tempo per la solitudine
la lasci a casa insieme a tutte le bollette
nelle giornate che trascorri sotto il sole puoi
dimenticare tutte quante le promesse fatte
Ci sarò solo se ci sarai
ti chiamerò solo se chiamerai
Crepuscolari come le illusioni
svanito il giorno solo cattivi pensieri
il ricordo di un’estate che si arena sulla spiaggia
come collanine rotte sulla sabbia
rivivere il ritorno come cambiamento
la partenza come senza ritorno
alla fine dell’estate ti rimane dentro
il sapore delle libertà che in fondo hai scelto
Ti chiamerò solo se chiamerai
e ci sarò solo se ci sarai
Crepuscolari come le illusioni
svanito il giorno solo cattivi pensieri
il ricordo di un’estate che si arena sulla spiaggia
come collanine rotte sulla sabbia
rivivere il ritorno come cambiamento
la partenza come senza ritorno
alla fine dell’estate ti rimane dentro
il sapore delle libertà che in fondo hai scelto

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day ♪♫♪♫
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.
Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over,
Thought I'd something more to say.

The clouds above my head
The shadows slowly fade away
Even my own has left my side
Watching the colors fade to gray
I gaze into the midday sky
Has the daylight turned to dusk?
i close my weary eyes
There I see a different light
Bright as the noonday sun
The vision I have in mind
The dream I carry in my heart
Not a shadow of doubt
No fear in sight
I open my eyes
I see a path before me
I take one step, and another
and walk with head held high
Yes it’s a long road...
But the end is in sight!

108/365 - Tears And Rain - James Blunt
Bad weather over France this days, it rained all day so we had to deal with.
I had really no idea for today's shot so we went to town with Loic.
Today is something new, something different, maybe more poetic and abstract.
Don't know what to think about but I kind like this shot.
I've been tagged by Lisa yesterday, thanks to her, so here is ten things about me :
1 - I love to hang out barefoot, I love to wear just a short, I love when it's warm and sunny.
2 - Kelly Slater is a very inspiring person for me.
3 - I'm in love with Tristan Prettyman and Katie Melua, just love their music.
4 - I love to travel, I'm lucky I've seen various places and countries, I can't wait to travel to Australia one day.
5 - I quit sport and focus on photography after a motorbike accident that took me 4 surgeries on my right knee to recover
6 - I don't like to run but I like to swim... that's maybe not surprising !
7 - I smoke too much, I decided to stop smoking until the end of 2010...
8 - My brother has always been inspiring for me, I may have try close to everything he did
9 - I was scared to see what's under the surface until I dive with sharks last year
10 - I would love to know how to play guitare, I try, but I've to admit I'm really bad at it !
So I'm going to tag 10 contacts that I like to check their stream and they'll do this 10 stuff if they want !

The housefly (also house fly, house-fly or common housefly), Musca domestica, is the most common of all flies flying in homes, and indeed one of the most widely distributed insects; it is often considered a pest that can carry serious diseases.Each female fly can lay approximately 500 eggs in several batches of about 75 to 150, eggs [1]. The eggs are white and are about 1.2 mm in length. Within a day, larvae (maggots) hatch from the eggs; they live and feed in (usually dead and decaying) organic material, such as garbage or faeces. The flies depend on warm temperatures; generally, the warmer the temperature the faster the flies will develop. In winter, most of them survive in the larval or the pupa stage in some protected warm location.
The average lifespan of an adult housefly is approximately 15 to 25 days.

La mosca doméstica o común (Musca domestica) es un díptero braquícero de la familia Muscidae. Es la mosca más común y habitual en la mayoría de los climas de la tierra. Cada hembra puede dejar cerca de 8,000 huevos. Los huevos son blancos y de unos 1.2 mm de longitud. A lo largo de un día las larvas eclosionan de los huevos; viven y se alimentan por regla general de detritus orgánicos, tales como la basura o las heces. Las moscas que salen de la pupa pueden alcanzar períodos de vida de medio mes, pudiéndose prolongar este tiempo en el laboratorio.En los climas calientes esta variedad de moscas conviven sólo con los humanos. Suelen tener una tendencia a agregarse y son muy poco sociables. A pesar de ello son capaces de acarrear cerca de 100 enfermedades patógenas, tales como las fiebres tifoideas, la cólera, la salmonella, la disentería de bacilos, la tuberculosis, el anthrax, y gusanos parásitos.
