"We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey." ~Kenji Miyazawa
11/04/00-11/04/09=R.I.P. Happy Anniversary???
How uncomfortable it is to have a date that should by all rights equal happiness and love..be a day of discomfort and uncertainty. Gone are the flowers...the cards...the sweet sentiments...the forget-me-nots...the gift of love and adoration. Replaced by foulness..anger..bitterness...blame...finger pointing and an incessant need to run fast in any other direction! Today shall be a tough one as I am in the throws of divorce and moving on yet still in my complacency and awaiting the loose ends to be tied up. There is no finalization yet..it is limbo at its best. How does one get uncomplicated in a complicated mess? I do not cry or hope or wish or beg...for it is not the loss of my husband that bothers me but certainly I will mourn the loss of what I thought things would be....
BUT that road ahead sure does look colorful, bright and inviting..I think I shall get on it!
Italia - Nápoles - Castel Nuovo

ENGLISH
Castel Nuovo (English: "New Castle"), often called Maschio Angioino is a medieval castle located in front of Piazza Municipio and the city hall (Palazzo San Giacomo) in central Naples, Campania, Italy. Its scenic location and imposing size makes the castle, first erected in 1279, one of the main architectural landmarks of the city. It was a royal seat for kings of Naples, Aragon and Spain until 1815.
It is the headquarters of Neapolitan Society of Homeland History and of the Naples Committee of the Institute for the History of the Italian Risorgimento. In the complex there is also the civic museum, which includes the Palatine Chapel and the museum paths on the first and second floors.

ESPAÑOL
El Castel Nuovo (Castillo Nuevo), conocido popularmente como Maschio Angioino (Torreón angevino), es un castillo medieval italiano construido en la ciudad de Nápoles.
Su edificación data de la época de Carlos de Anjou, quien tras su ascenso al trono de los reinos de Nápoles y Sicilia en 1266 trasladó la capital desde Palermo a Nápoles; a pesar de que ya existían en la ciudad el Castel dell'Ovo y el Castel Capuano, Carlos dispuso la elección de otro castillo donde albergar su corte. En 1279 comenzaron las obras de construcción bajo la dirección del arquitecto francés Pierre de Chaule, siendo terminado al cabo de tres años el castillo. Debido a las revueltas ocurridas durante las vísperas sicilianas, el castillo permaneció deshabitado hasta 1285, cuando fue ocupado por Carlos II de Anjou.
En 1294 fue escenario de la abdicación del papa Celestino V y la elección de su sucesor Bonifacio VIII; bajo el reinado de Roberto I de Nápoles (1309-1343) el castillo fue ampliado y embellecido. En 1347 fue saqueado por las tropas de Luis I de Hungría y hubo de ser restaurado antes del regreso de Juana I de Nápoles.
Durante el reinado de Alfonso V de Aragón, de la dinastía aragonesa, fue reforzado para resistir el batir de la nueva artillería, en desarrollo en aquellas fechas. En esa época se construyó el arco triunfal de la puerta principal.
El castillo fue nuevamente atacado en 1494 por las tropas francesas de Carlos VIII durante la primera guerra de Nápoles, y en 1503 por las fuerzas españolas de Pedro Navarro, bajo las órdenes de Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba, durante la segunda guerra de Nápoles. Con la anexión de Nápoles a la corona de Aragón en la condición de virreinato en 1504, el castillo perdió su función de residencia real, que no recuperaría hasta 1734, cuando Carlos VII de Nápoles (más tarde, Carlos III de España) tomase posesión del trono napolitano.

It was probably one of the most beautiful winter-days I've ever seen yesterday. We walked to a lake - Østernvann - that was covered with ice, and the sun was just about to set behind the tree-line. The colors, the light, the pure white snow, the crisp cold air biting my nose; I literally walked around with my jaws dropped for about five minutes.
We lit a fire, made hot chocolate, and watch the sun set. This was the view from the log I was sitting on, in front of the fire. I never thought I would say this - 'cause I'm really a summer-type of person - but I'm loving winter right now. It really is magical.
by Thomas Moore
I saw from the beach, when the morning was shining,
A bark o'er the waters move gloriously on;
I came when the sun o'er that beach was declining,
The bark was still there, but the waters were gone.
And such is the fate of our life's early promise,
So passing the spring-tide of joy we have known;
Each wave that we danced on at morning ebbs from us,
And leaves us, at eve, on the bleak shore alone.
Oh, who would not welcome that moment's returning
When passion first waked a new life through his frame,
And his soul, like the wood that grows precious in burning,
Gave out all its sweets to love's exquisite flame.
texture Skeletalmess
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause
And I know if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star

[scritto nella mia agenda, il 21 marzo, mentre aspettavo con marcello davanti ai cancelli, l'apertura della seconda data]
AC/DC per la seconda volta, ad accompagnare gli stati d’animo un po’ assopiti dalla stanchezza, in un futuro molto prossimo largamente ripagati.
Il 19, prima cazzo di data, dopo una giornata stesa al sole, tremante, fremente, AGITATA sono corsa, una FOLLE CORSA sugli scalini verso l’inferno, AC/DC pensavo, e correvo sugli scalini, li facevo a 3 a 3, a 4 a 4, nessuno mi fermava, i muscoli fremevano e io andavo sempre più forte con un solo unico pensiero in testa; finiti gli scalini in salita, per una frazione di secondo ho visto il mondo dall’alto e ho un gridato un “CAZZO!!!” VENUTO DAL CUORE, MA NON C’ERA TEMPO, SONO RIPARTITA, le gambe vibravano, ho rischiato di cadere ed essere travolta, ma no, non è successo…ho corso, madonna se ho corso, vista la passerella e sorpassata, “L’ANGOLO TRA BRIAN E ANGUS era vuoto…SIIIIII, non ci credevo, ero lì, cazzo ero lì, butto la borsa, mi giro e vedo manu che correndo mi raggiunge, subito dietro Stè, C’ERAVAMO TUTTE!! Buttiamo le borse e urliamo gioia, lo staff guarda, capisce e sorride…CI SONO...mi chino sulla transenna, di spalle al resto delle persone che arrivavano stremate, mi chino e il pensiero va ad angelo, indosso avevo la sua maglietta, scendono due lacrime, sono forte, mi sonto forte, mi alza, SONO IN PRIMISSIMA FILA! Davanti ai miei occhi un maestoso ma umano palco, tutti i giochi degli AC/DC erano in fila pronti a essere usati, pronti ad essere acclamati, tutti gli show sono pronti ad accadere.
alle 8 in punto cominciano i "The Answer", un miscuglio tra Led Zeppelin ed AC/DC, bravi, da approfondire, ma vogliamo gli ac/dc....ok, ci siamo!
BUIO, si urla, nessuno si trattiene...nel megaschermo parte un'animazione con Angus sopra il "rock'n'roll train" che getta carbone per far andare più veloce, getta adrenalina....continua il video malizioso alla AC/DC, splendido!!
ESCONO....è IL DELIRIO...cominciano con "ROCK'N'ROLL TRAIN", poi, dopo "HELL AIN'T A BAD PLACE", si sente ta, tadada tadada, ta, tadada, tadada...BACK IN BLACKKKKKKK....a seguire Big Jack, bellissima dell'ultimo disco...e poi OI OI OI OI .....DIRTY DEEDS Done Dirt Cheap....SPLENDIDA DOSE DI ADRENALINAAA...mamma mia e pi l'assolo di Thunderstruck...non ci potevo credere, mani alzate e urla, mi provenivano dal fegato, non era la mia voce, non sentivo la mia voce, era Thunderstruck, la stavano facendo mio dio!!!
in "The Jack" mi hanno inquadrato nel megaschermo... ;) e poi ecco che cala la campana dell'inferno, tutti capiamo, tutti urliamo, urla disumane e il salto di quel quasi sessantaduenne che finisce sulla corda della campana, favoloso, esaltante...Hells Bells....
Hanno fatto T.N.T. ....la mia mente ora si stà annebbiando, non riesco a ricordare, a raccontare in modo lineare, mi emoziono, mi agito, tremo ancora, T.N.T. si...oddio non ho parole per descriverla, poi ROSIE, poi Let There Be Rock....breve, brevissima pausa per poi vedere fumo sul palco, tanto fumo e un piccolo Angus completo di corna salire da sotto il palco con la sua Diavoletto pronta a sbraitare...Highway to Hell....ceee...non si può immaginare esperienza migliore...infine per saluto ci regalano i cannoni con "For Those About to Rock We Salute You"...non ho piu parole, il ri-raccontare tutto mi ha fatto esaurire le poche forze rimaste...
Lo spogliarello, la pedana che si alza con Angus che rotola dentro imponendo un assolo maestoso...oddio oddio, le mie aspettative erano altissime ma loro le hanno superate travolgendo ogni cosa...
MI SONO VISTA GLI AC/DC....sono riuscita anche a prendere il plettro di Angus e la scaletta...mio dio, non ci credo ancora....

Magma from the mantle intruded the deep crust and cooled slowly. Pyroxene and olivine started to crystallize from the magma. Since these where heavier than the surrounding magma, they sank to the bottom of the magma chamber where they became layered. Later, the remaining melt intruded higher levels of the continental crust, where it cooled and crystallised as tønsbergite, larvikite or lardalite. Some million years later the rock was carved and polished by glaciers during the ice age.

¬"simple pleasure/little things that make me happy"
¬waking up all cozy and reading in bed
¬the smell of peppermint room spray
¬the crazy things that jonel says

Think of me as programmable soda
Too much cherry?
Baby then you can just add cola
Think of me as programmable soda
'Cause you can
Can be a cruel fella
So okay, then I just back off
The vanilla
Think of me as programmable soda
'cause I've come
I've come to accept that
For lovelies you are a fanatic
But I can't
I can't let that throw me
Into a genital panic
Think of me as programmable soda
Too much cherry?
Baby then you can just add cola
Think of me as programmable soda
When you think
And boy when you drink
When you think of me

One more entry for the SteamWars Madness on FBTB. But the last one.
After some great weeks the building contest on FBTB comes to an end. There were six rounds and each single one was a new challenge. This round was no different.
With no given category this time my decision fell on the iconic Boonta-Eve on Tatooine. All contest long i wanted a Podracer, but it wasn't allowed to build it in the "Speeder"-category. Now I finally was able to do so.
I don't just switched everything of metal into wood, but also changed Watto's Junkyard into a victorian JunkVilla.
I hope you like my take in this topic.
Because this is the last model of a Steampunk-series, i want to take the chance to thank the FBTB-team for hosting this great contest, all contestants for building so many cool entries and last but not least the people that voted for my creations and postet some great feedback here on flickr. :)

Yellow ragwort, light green lichen on rocks, and white blossoms of red diamorpha: native and endemic spring flora on a granite monadnock.
DeKalb County (Stonecrest), Georgia, USA.
27 March 2024.
***************
▶ "Once part of a quarry, Arabia Mountain is now protected as part of the Davidson-Arabia Mountain Nature Preserve. This otherworldly rock outcrop is a monadnock, a geologic formation that has seen the ground around it erode. Arabia Mountain also contains a variety of rare and endangered plants, such as diamorpha, which grows in the fragile solution pit ecosystems that appear on the rock face."
— Arabia Mountain Heritage Area Alliance.
▶ "Stone cutters especially appreciated Arabia Mountain for the unique quality of its granite (a mix of granite and gneiss referred as 'migmatite'), known for its high density, colorfastness, and attractive appearance. When it formed deep below the surface of the Earth, bands of light and dark minerals twisted to create distinctive swirls that broke the stone’s granular appearance, giving it the fitting name, 'Tidal grey' "

"Hey dude."
"Hey Gilles, long time no see."
"Can I ask a favour?"
"Sure"
"You know those pictures you took of me and Ian?"
"Yeah... and then the band broke up?"
"Yeah, that's how it goes. I was wondering, they were really sweet shots. Could you take some of just me? I'm doing a solo thing now and I need shots for posters and advertising."
"Sure, yeah, no problem. When?"
"Heh.. tomorrow? I need them real bad for the weekend."
"The weekend! Uh, how about Thursday? I'm pretty busy tonight."
"Can we do Wednesday? Then if Wednesday's weather is no good we can fall back to Thursday."
"Sure, ok. Uhm, can do I think."
Hope he likes them.
P.S. - if anyone can think of a band name for Gilles please let me know. We're all racking brains trying to think of something. Any ideas appreciated (well, almost).
And as always comments and criticism appreciated! Could definitely use feedback on these shots!

I took a trip to one of Brisbane neighbouring Islands this weekend just gone and rode around on the pushy with my best mate, camera in tow of course. We managed to stumble up on these dead trees, some nice jetties and beautiful beaches! I love little explorations!
A re-visit to these fellas at sunset is a must!
Sun Moon Lake, situated in Nantou County’s Yuchih Township, in the center of Taiwan, and is the island’s largest lake. It is a beautiful alpine lake, divided by the tiny Lalu Island; the eastern part of the lake is round like the sun and the western side is shaped like a crescent moon, hence the name “Sun Moon Lake”.
日月潭位於台灣本島中央南投縣的魚池鄉，是台灣最大的淡水湖泊，也是最美麗的高山湖泊。潭面以拉魯島為界，東側形如日輪，西側狀如月鉤，故名日月潭。她的美是由山與水所共同交融、創造出來；748.48公尺的中高度海拔，造就日月潭宛如圖畫山水，氤氳水氣及層次分明的山景變化，一景一物皆渾然天成，詩畫般的意境，足以讓人流連忘返。

Cálmate y todo lo que estás persiguiendo vendrá y te alcanzará.
Slow down and everything you are chasing will come around and catch you.
John De Paola
La calma es uno de los mejores estados de ánimo. Te permite organizar tus ideas y dejar salir tus emociones, controlar los impulsos insanos y es una estupenda tijera imaginaria para cortar el velo del miedo o de la desesperación. Es la mejor aliada y casi nunca se enfada.
Calm is one of the best states of mind. It allows you to organize your ideas and let your emotions come out, controls the insane impulses and it’s a wonderful imaginary scissor to cut fear or desesperation’s veil. It’s the best allied and it’s almost never angry.

Anyway, after therapy had my hair cut. Needed to
spoil myself a little. I Never go to the hairdresser, maybe twice a year. And now I just wanted the splitted ends cut, but the hairdresser said that it would be nice to also dye it and make it more white (now it was from top: Yellow, White, Yellow, White, Whiter because I always dye it myself). I'm very very pleased with it! She made it very straight, which is so much different then I'm used to! But I love it! Hope I can do it like this myself. I feel like a whole different woman. Kinda femme fatale :)

Illustration fantastique avec une petite série de photos en studio avec un simple cadre de chez un très célèbre vendeur de meuble discount suédois, un joli modèle.
Le reste se construit sur la base d'un Matte painting à partir
d'un fauteuil téléchargé sur Fotolia (pas d'aussi beau spécimen de ce type dans ma banque d'images et je le regrette).
Le matte painting est une technique qui consiste à recréer un univers irreséel sur une base de photo qui elle est bien réelle. Grâce à de multiples outils qu'offrent la plus part des nouveaux logiciels de traitement d'image et des ressources de texture accumulés lors de multiples expéditions en URBEX.
Par exemple pour cette illustration j'ai donc mit le fauteuil en situation, sur un fond nuageux dont je me suis servi en tant que tapisserie.
Cette même tapisserie rognée, texturée, déchirée ... pour enfin arrivé à ce résultat.
Résultat qui offre une image de plus de 5000x5000px pour un poids de 1.20go en format .psd, un beau bébé dont je vous laisse apprécier la qualité du détail ci dessous.
We might have walked together here
Angry, you stayed in the car
You hated to admit it
That you couldn't walk that far
You googled "Diabetes"
So insulin might bring you back
But it was just the alcohol
On the attack
I look back on our years gone by
You were dying by degrees
Peripheral neuralgia
From your toes up to your knees
And you chose to keep on drinking
Not to hear my anxious pleas
Although I sit alone here now
Your body buried deep
I carry you within me
Like a treasure I can keep
When I fill up with sadness
As I do at times each day
There's no despair or desolation
Love will never go away
This song by Eva Cassidy says so much so well. I cannot believe how loved and held I feel by Gilli. She may be gone, but the love in her eyes shines through her picture on my screen with all the power of life itself. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISipJs6I1w4
Ranked #10 of about 508,000 for peripheral neuralgia.
This morning, seeing my stuff appearing on front page Google I explored further into peripheral neuropathy. It seems alcohol is sometimes used peripherally to tackle the pain. There is also a connection with lupus,which has been investigated around her sister's symptoms. There is clearly a strong family connection here. Her father has had trigeminal neuropathy most of his life. I had it myself briefly.
With Gilly, the peripheral disease may have been alcohol caused but it is very chicken and egg. The disturbance of the central nervous system as in the epilepsy seem much less likely to be caused by the alcohol. In fact, I think it is much more likely that the heavy drinking relates to her attempts to calm her brain, which was always too fast. The effects of alcohol as a CNS are well known.
Dr Blake described Gill as a self destructive person. I just cannot square that with her wonderful work as a teacher and her deep love for me, the boys and people in general.

I recently visited Morro Bay , specifically Morro strait a section of beach that words can barely descibe. Kids, dogs, and coulples just walking along this beach cannot help but be awestruck by the immense size of the rock and the atmosphere it seems to generate. The waves lap along the shore and the sun seems to just hover and play with the outline of the rock. Here is the series of shot I took this day as the sun slowly went down.
a must see for anyone visiting pismo beach or highway 1 on the California coastline. PS the riders of these horses asked me to post this as they said "they have no shots of them riding on this beach" I hope this finds you well.
...
Mother, mother
Everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Come on talk to me
So you can see
What's going on
What's going on

With the statue of Dante, the loggia del Consiglio (on the left) and the Palazzo del Comune (on the right).
Loggia del Consiglio: one of the most stylish Renaissance creations in the Veneto Region. The arcaded building is characterized by yellow and red frescoes on the upper floor and five ancient celebrities of Verona on the rooftop.
Palazzo del Comune (1193) with the winged lion of Venezia is joined to the Palazzo dei Tribunali by a ark.

This is actually my Aunt and Uncle's back yard. I took the image on a trip
to Oregon. Nearly all of Western Oregon is forested except where they have
logged. Log cabin homes sit amongst the trees and the green grass. It
would be heaven if not for all the rain. Oregon is quite wet compared to my
home state of California. Typically the underbrush in this area would be
so dense you could not walk through it but my aunt had the land cleared and
the meadow grass grew in naturally. You can still see the dense blackberry shrubs in theback. Blackberry plants have taken over much of Oregon and you find them
growing throughout the state. I think I hear that the plant was not native
and the state was under efforts to reduce the amount of wild blackberries.
Visit in the fall and you will have all you could possibly eat. If you are
from or plan to pass though California, plan on having them confiscated at
the state border unless you have them canned.

In the poorer neighborhoods of Baltimore, one of the weapons of choice for self-defense is the box cutter. It will do damage, but not too much damage; it is cheap and easily hidden in the palm of the hand; and it won't get you locked up on a concealed deadly weapon charge if you get hassled by the police.
An ex-Baltimore Police officer used to rent a furnished apartment on my block a number of years ago. He left the police on disability retirement after his liver or kidneys stopped working properly (I can't remember which). When he was police, he worked the overnight shift, slept in his car, and always made a point of locking up some hapless smokehound or junkie on bullshit charges right before his shift ended so that he could collect court overtime the next morning.
He used to walk up to the the 7-11 on Orleans Street and Patterson Park Avenue every night after midnight to buy smokes. One time, a teenager tried to rob him, and he slashed the kid's face pretty badly with a box cutter. He was laughing when he told the story. I doubt the kid ever reported the incident to the police – a stuck stick-up artist isn't going to get much sympathy from the cops.
Eventually, my neighbor developed a bit of a heroin problem and was evicted – all of his stuff thrown out on the sidewalk, the whole drama.
We found this wonderful and mystic location at the last day of our vacation. It is located at the shore of Los Hervideros, where the lava of the Timanfaya eruption flew into the ocean. The picture was taken at low tide, so you can see both, the rounded pepples and rocks in the foreground and the sharp-edged lava in the background.
It was hard for us to say goodbye to Lanzarote at this place, on the other hand it is a great incentive to come back again.
I wanted to title this picture in spanish and hope it's passably okay :-)

To be serious, one of my top-ten super hero movies is definitely Big Hero 6. It has a great storyline despite that it's made for kids. Furthermore the animations are really well done and the emotions of the characters are captured perfectly. In addition all the scenes in the movie are filled with a lot of nice details.
The fact that they used a Fall out Boy song makes everything even better!
I especially liked how they designed Hiro's Workshop. It's full of stuff.
Now with a SuperHero competition on Imperium der Steine I had the chance to build it in Lego.

Peratallada que ha sido declarada conjunto histórico artístico, es uno de los núcleos más importantes del Ampurdán en cuanto a arquitectura medieval se refiere. De un extraordinario atractivo y belleza, conserva su antiguo aspecto feudal, donde hay que destacarn el castillo fortificado con su torre del homenaje y el palacio (s. XI-XIV), las murallas (s. XII-XIII) y la iglesia de San Esteban (románica, de principios del s. XII ). Llama la atención el gran foso que rodea a esta localidad, excavado en la roca viva. De aquí procede el nombre de la Villa: Piedra Tallada.
La villa conserva la misma distribución urbana medieval: desde la Plaza Mayor, con sus singulares porches, hasta la trama de estrechas callejuelas, donde descubriremos un interesante conjunto de arquitectura popular.

▶ WHAT IS EXPLORE?
"Explore is a Flickr feature with the intent of showing you 'some of the most awesome photos on Flickr.' Photos are automatically selected by computer according to a secret algorithm called Interestingness. The top 500 photos ranked by Interestingness are shown in Explore.
Flickr has stated that many factors go into calculating Interestingness: a photo's tags, how many groups the photo is in, views, favorites, where click-throughs are coming from, who comments on a photo and when, and more. The velocity of any of those components is a key factor. For example, getting 20 comments in an hour counts much higher than getting 20 comments in a week.
Is Explore a showcase for the top Flickr photographers? No. It's for photo viewers, not the photographers. It exists so that, at any moment, anyone who wants to view interesting photos can go to Explore and have a reasonable chance of seeing something interesting.
Does that imply that photographs not in Explore are uninteresting? Of course not. Many wonderful photos are uploaded to Flickr each day not selected for Explore. But, to serve its purpose, Explore only includes a small sampling of all of the photos on Flickr, showing photos from many different people to create a diverse selection."
