An ivory head of Santo Domingo de Guzman
ESTIMATE: PHP 550,000 - 600,000
18th century
Manila
Ivory, wood, glass eyes, polychrome
18 x 11 x 13 cm (7 x 4 1/4 x 5 in)
Provenance:
From the heirs of Dr. José P. Bantug
Separately carved ivory heads were intended to be attached to a sculpted saint’s body, which could take several forms: de tallado, a fully carved and finely detailed wooden body painted in organic polychrome to create a complete sculpture; de gozne or mannequin-type wooden body with articulated limbs; or a bastidor-type structure consisting of a half-length carved wooden torso with a wooden slat framework below, functioning like a petticoat and also fitted with articulated limbs. The latter two forms were designed for de vestir sculptures, meant to be dressed in real, often elaborately embroidered garments. Once completed, these santo images were installed in church altar niches or used as processional figures. Affluent families likewise commissioned santo images for private devotion within their homes.
This ivory head represents Santo Domingo de Guzmán. It features an elongated, narrow face with softly rounded yet prominent cheeks and a refined jawline. The almond-shaped eyes are slightly wide and contemplative, retaining their original, well-integrated glass elements. Heavy lids rest beneath high-arched eyebrows, enhancing the introspective expression. The nose is slender and elongated, characteristic of Baroque devotional sculpture. The beard is deeply undercut and stylized in controlled, layered curls, while the small mouth with gently fleshy lips conveys a calm, inward-looking demeanor. The overall aesthetic is light and refined. A circular cavity beneath the head confirms that it was designed to be mounted onto a wooden body. Both its construction and stylistic characteristics point to early 18th-century (1700–1740) production in Manila workshops, where highly skilled Chinese artisans (Sangleys) collaborated with indigenous Filipino carvers. During the early to mid-1700s, sculptors increasingly emphasized subtle naturalism, evident here in the slightly parted lips – revealing carved teeth when viewed at an angle – and in the delicately indicated Adam’s apple (laryngeal prominence). This ivory head represents a superb example of Manila workshops at their technical peak, during a period when the colonial settlement was recognized as a global center of religious art.
Possibly due to pecuniary considerations or the unavailability of ivory of sufficient size, the uppermost portion of the head, including the finely carved tonsure, was fashioned separately from wood and surmounted onto the ivory. Based on strict classical proportions, the head would have originally belonged to a sculpture measuring approximately 36 to 42 inches in height.
Santo Domingo de Guzman or Saint Dominic (1170-1221) was a Castilian Catholic priest and founder of the Dominican Order. He and his order are traditionally credited with spreading and popularizing the rosary. The mark on the ivory forehead indicates the former presence of a star appliqué, one of the saint’s principal attributes, symbolizing the light of holiness and divine wisdom.
This ivory head has remained in the possession of the Bantug family, passed down through successive generations from their distinguished collection, beginning with the patriarch Dr. José P. Bantug (1884–1964), physician, public health educator, and author.

Due cuori che non dovrebbero
parlarsi si avvicinano
in una città che assomiglia di più ad una cella di prigione
La gente pronuncia i nostri nomi
per la strada in tono silenzioso
oh, le storie che racconterebbero
se solo qualcuno le ascoltasse
vieni da una città in cui
alla gente non importa se li saluti
a meno che qualcuno non nasca o non muoia
ed io provengo da un luogo in cui
trascinano le tue speranza nel fango
perchè i loro stessi sogni stanno tutti morendo
e quando noi parliamo per la strada
il vento canta il nostro nome in canzoni ribelli
i rumori della notte dovrebbero renderci ansiosi
ma è davvero troppo tardi una volta superata la paura
ti incontrerò in un'altra vita. te lo prometto
dove potremo stare insieme, te lo prometto
fino ad allora spetterò in Paradiso, te lo prometto
lo prometto, lo prometto
ci sono così tante battaglie
per riuscire a passare attraverso i Cancelli Perlati
ma nessuno mai vorrebbe morire o essere salvato
le loro intenzioni non sono così buone
e io posso sentire l'odore dell'asfalto
col quale stanno costruendo la loro strada per l'inferno
e quando noi parliamo per la strada
il vento canta il nostro nome in canzoni ribelli
ma è davvero troppo tardi una volta che la paura è sparita
ti incontrerò in un'altra vita, te lo prometto
dove potremo stare insieme, te lo prometto
fino ad allora aspetterò in Paradiso, te lo prometto
lo prometto, lo prometto
ti incontreò nella prossima vita, te lo prometto
dove potremo stare insieme, te lo prometto
fino ad allora spetterò in Paradiso, te lo prometto
lo prometto, lo prometto.

I had just gotten out of the shower..began wiping away the accumulated steam from the mirror...and I noticed a certain something about myself..almost as if I didn't recognize myself for a minute. Have you ever looked in the mirror at yourself...I mean really looked...and couldn't help but feel like you were looking at a stranger?
So that got me thinking..about me and how I think I am perceived to other people..There are many 'qualities' I possess that anyone who really knows me will certainly attest to...and it is obvious to all that know of me that I am a few things..I hold a few titles I guess you could say..I'm a mother (first, always!), I am a soon to be ex wife (woo-hoo!), a crafter of many things, I adore photography, I am a huge dog lover...etc etc...But those things about me are merely branches on my tree..They don't say who I really am..although I am not sure what else really does some times..and I find myself wondering if I even like to be in specific categories...definitely not the wife one...If I have realized that after many years of wedded bliss (hell)..that I am not cut out to be a wife..when my kids move out on their own, I will not have the daily parenting responsibilities I have now...I enjoy all types of animals and not just of the canine persuasion....so in return then do all of these things now take away from who I am? Of course not..so those things about me, those 'titles' do not define me...just small bits of my life and how I have lived it...I guess I can only hope to begin to realize more about me as a whole and not just think that I am the subcategories....and once again take a look at myself in the mirror and realize that I am in fact not such a mystery anymore....
Aveva ventisette anni, ma sembravano di più.
Dicevano una cosa strana: dicevano: Novecento non è mai sceso dalla nave. E' nato su questa nave, e da allora c'è rimasto. Sempre. Dicevano che suonava una musica che non esisteva.
Novecento, perchè non scendi?
Perchè?
"Tutta quella città...non se ne vedeva la fine...La fine, per cortesia, si potrebbe vedere la fine?
Ora tu pensa: un pianoforte. I tasti iniziano. I tasti finiscono. Tu sai che sono 88, su questo nessuno può fregarti. Non sono infiniti loro.
Ma se io scendo da quella scaletta, e davanti a me si srotola una tastiera di milioni di tasti, milioni e miliardi, che non finiscono mai....su quella tastiera infinita non c'è musica che puoi suonare.
Anche solo le strade, ce ne sono migliaia...
Ma come fate voi laggiù a sceglierne una?
A scegliere una donna
Una casa, una terra che sia vostra, un paesaggio da guardare, un modo di morire
Tutto quel mondo
Quel mondo addosso che nemmeno sai dove finisce
E quanto ce n'è
Non avete mai paura, voi, di finire in mille pezzi solo a pensarla, quell'enormità, solo a pensarla? A viverla...
La voglia di scendere
La paura di farlo
Diventi matto, così
Matto."
(Alessandro Baricco - Novecento)

I was keen to try these out - something a bit different for the kids lunch, a way to use up the courgette that had been lurking in the bottom of the fridge for a while, and a non bread based meal. It was easy to make, pretty tasty warm, and went in lunchboxes for the next day. As I could have predicted, Megan finished hers, Thea wolfed it down, and Eli whined that there was onion in there.

Black & White view of Malot Temple from three sides.
Temple of Malot
Alexander Cunningham wrote in his report for the Archaeological Survey of India in 1872-3.
"The only remains of any antiquity at Mallot are a temple and gateway in the Kashmirian style of architecture. They are built of a coarse sandstone of various shades of ochreous red and yellow, and many parts have suffered severely from the action of the weather, the surface having altogether crumbled away...The temple is a square of 18 feet inside, with a vestibule or entrance porch on the east towards the gateway. The gateway is...a massive building...divided into two rooms...On each side of these rooms to the north and south there are highly decorated niches for the reception of statues, similar to those in the portico of the temple. These niches are covered by trefoil arches which spring from flat pilasters. Each capital supports a statue of a lion under a half trefoil canopy...The roof is entirely gone; but judging from the square shape of the building, I conclude that it must have been pyramidal, outside with flat panelled ceilings of overlapping stones."

Le 20 Octobre, une "journée nationale de la solidarité avec les étrangers" a été organisée pour protester contre le projet de loi Hortefeux sur l'immigration et sa disposition controversée sur les tests ADN. A l'appel de 3 associations (RESF, le collectif Uni(e)s contre une immigration jetable - UCIJ- et les Collectifs des sans-papiers d'Ile-de-France - CSP), des manifestations ont rassemblées dans une quarantaine de villes françaises des milliers de participants, dont 4000 à Paris (1500 selon la police) entre Belleville et Palais Royal.

St. Stephen's Basilica Roman Catholic basilica in Budapest, Hungary. It is named in honour of Stephen, the first King of Hungary (c 975–1038), whose mummified fist is housed in the reliquary.
Equal with the Hungarian Parliament Building, it is the one of the two tallest buildings in Budapest at 96 metres (315 ft) - this equition symbolises that worldly and spiritual thinking have the same importance. According to current regulations there cannot be taller building in Budapest than 96 metres (315 ft). It has a width of 55 metres (180 ft), and length of 87.4 metres (287 ft). It was completed in 1905 after 54 years of construction. Much of this delay can be attributed to the collapse of the dome in 1868 which required complete demolition of the completed works and rebuilding from the ground up.
The architectural style is Neo-Rennaissance; it has a Greek cross groundplan. The façade is anchored by two large bell towers. In the southern tower is Hungary's biggest bell, weighing over 9 tonnes (8.9 LT; 9.9 ST) . Its predecessor had a weight of almost 8 tonnes (7.9 LT; 8.8 ST), but it was used for military purposes during World War II. Visitors may access the dome by elevators or by climbing 364 stairs for a 360° view overlooking Budapest.

Famous and impressive, both at a distance and nearby, with marvelous views over the capital of Hungary.

I've been away for what seems like forever. I have had a rough couple of weeks since I've been home. It feels like after 3 years that lasted a lifetime, in the blink of an eye... everything changed. My future has been completely altered - at least that is how it feels as of now. The world dropped and my footing was lost. I suppose there is nothing else to do now, but pick myself up and start over. No, I think it's more like Starting New. It's time for me to move on, to find something else, to work on myself, and really focus on this new blank page of tomorrow. Wish me well, lads and lasses.
In the meantime, I've been doing a lot of commercial work. I've been asked to shoot 7-8 year olds All Stars Baseball. I'm also doing some weekend shoots of Motocross, which I have to say - I like a lot more. Aaaand I may be doing a wedding in mid-July. That I am super excited for, but nervous nonetheless. I've shot one other wedding, but it was for a close friend. This couple I have only just met. Still, I'm excited to see that things are looking up.
I haven't decided whether or not I want to upload any of my commercial work yet or not. Part of me wants this to be more of a personal journal of growth. One that reflects my growth in photography and growth in myself. Sooo, I'm not quite sure yet.

Bamburgh Castle, county of Northumberland, north east coast of England. In 1464 King Henry VI and his wife, Queen Margaret of Anjou, took refuge here during the ‘Wars of the Roses’ so technically this castle became, for a short period, the seat of the government of England. Later that year the castle was seized by rival Edward IV’s army, and it became the first English castle to be taken by canon fire.
The castle has been partially restored to provide living accommodation, and parts of it are open as a museum.
Previously, in 547 AD (and 500 years before this Norman castle was built ) Bamburgh was the seat of the Anglo Saxon king Ida. The site has been occupied since at least 1BC, and was an important stronghold for the Romans. Historically, the castle played a strong part in the struggle between English and Scottish peoples.

El sello es la representación de la persona a quien pertenece, que debía ser en él reconociada. La elección de imágenes por parte del sigilante se basaba en la consideración del sello como un signo de identidad., además de los motivos heráldicos, aparceciendo en el sello formando parte de elementos del equipo del caballero cuando iba a la guerra, como el escudo y las cubiertas del caballo. Posteriormente se acompañaron de adornos variados. Los heráldicos fueron los de mayor difusión.
Los primeros sellos reales de Navarra, pertenecientes a Sancho VI el Sabio y a su hijo Sancho VII el Fuerte, aportan importantes informaciones sobre el primer sello real navarro, el de Sancho VI de 1193 y sobre la aparición de las cadenas, las armas del Reino de Navarra.
Pond-Life - Northwood Lake Update 3rd May
It was a beautiful sunny morning here in Dublin, but with a cold breeze. The first thing I saw at the Lake this morning was two Mallard drakes walking in circles around a hen. Then of course I realised that one was chasing the other but it was not clear which was chasing and which was running away. Then one was grabbed by the wing it became clear which was the aggressor. A chase across the lake, followed closely by the hen brought them out of sight.
Having walked around the lake a squawk in the sky overhead alerted me to a huge Grey Heron being chased be what looked like a Jackdaw. The Heron came to perch on a tree on the island but too far away to get a decent shot. After a few minutes waiting for him to take off again I went to the Eastern side of the lake, still watching for developments. I went to the eastern side of the lake for several reasons, mainly because the only other time I had seen a Heron at the lake he had taken off in that direction over the main road and the rooftops of Santry Close. The sun would also be on my left hand side and would help any shot I managed to get.
I stood there for about fifteen minutes watching him in that tree and as I stood I got colder and colder my fingers in particular and the spray from the fountain didn't help. Just as I decided that I would move on he took off, turned and headed along the side of the island where the Swan nest is.
I set off at a pace to see if I could find where he landed. On arriving I could see the Swans on the nest, but no Heron. Then a couple of minutes later I could hear twigs break and I could see him with an ungainly walk heading through the undergrowth on the island, still too far away for a decent shot.
I now have two objectives at the Lake, the Cygnets and the Heron.
As the heron disappeared, Bertie the Mute Swan cob came on to the water a little less aggressive than the last few days and began to forage in the reeds right beside me. He then spent a few minutes bottom feeding before heading back to the nest and I decided I had better do likewise.
Paul Freeney's Ponder blog:
Northwood Best Bits Slideshow:
"Avery Island’s most spectacular feature was developed by the late Edward Avery McIlhenny, known as "Monsieur Ned" by his French speaking friends and associates. Much of the world knows about TABASCO® Pepper Sauce, made for over 125 years on Avery Island, Louisiana. Not as many people know that Avery Island is actually a salt dome that extends some eight miles beneath the earth's surface. Or that the protruding "island" part of the formation is home to the world's most beautiful sanctuaries for the preservation and study of flora and fauna.
It was on Avery Island, where salt and pepper meet, that Edward McIlhenny helped save the snowy egret from extinction. In 1895 when the bird was being hunted for its plummage, McIlhenny built an aviary on Avery Island and captured and raised eight wild egrets. After they had raised their hatches and were ready to migrate, McIlhenny freed them. The egrets returned the next spring and every spring since. The egrets and herons return by the thousands to the rookery now called "Bird City". Not surprisingly, Jungle Gardens is a birder's paradise, home to hundreds of species of resident and migratory birds.
McIlhenny did much more to ensure that feature generations had an ideal spot to enjoy and study the beauties of nature and to observe plants and flowers from around the world in his 200 acre Jungle Gardens. The gardens are home to a large collection of camellias. Thousands of plants represent some 600 varieties, including imports from Japan and France, as well as varieties that McIlhenny developed on Avery Island. You will see acres upon acres of bright azalea flowers that carpet the landscape in the spring. Massive live oak trees are prevalent throughout the gardens, along with brilliant wildflowers and groves of evergreens. The Chinese Garden contains a Buddha sculpture dating back to 1000 A.D."

This picture I took in 2007--still not knowing much about photography but novices tend to get lucky. This little bee was posing for me long enough to capture a few really good shots and it is rare to also have the pollen in such a good focus... so here it is. I had to enlarge with Genuine Fractals--and again, no loss as a result.
The upper left flower was really wilted and the green in the background was way too bright so I decided to use Nik's trial again. I used the Dfine to reduce noise, the Sharpen to increase sharpness only on the bee and the center of the flower the bee is on, and then used a color treatment called Indian Summer all over. I chose center lighten and border darken--that is a really cool function in Nik's ColorEffects! And finally, since the wilting flower just stayed looking wilted, I used CS5's new blending brush and the regular paint brush to put a little more (albeit artistic) life back into that flower. I also painted the background a bit to keep the painted look more consistent. It is interesting what a bit of tinkering can do! the whole process took about 15 minutes and it is a descent picture now.
Tive o privilégio de fotografar esse carinha no Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, o qual recomendo a todos uma visita. Ele na verdade deveria ser chamado de "Macaco Poser", de tão à vontade que ele ficou diante das câmeras (risos).
Além desse e outros simpáticos macacos, o parque possui em sua sede um museu com muitas informações sobre a fauna e flora do parque, além de exemplares empalhados dos diversos animais que vivem por lá. Há também cachoeiras maravilhosas (e geladas) há poucos minutos de caminhada.

Stop The Killings, Memorial for Cyclist Hits Home
By: Will on: Dec 11, 2006 04:38 PM (149 reads)
On Saturday afternoon more than 100 cyclists and friends of Eric Ng road from Washington Square Park to the Westside Greenway to pay honor to Eric and memorialize him. Eric Ng was killed while cycling on the westside bike path more than a week ago by a drunk driver who drove his BMW down the path for more than a mile before striking Eric. I did not know Eric, but I know some of his friends, and there are many other friends of his from the cycling community whose faces I know. Eric was both a cyclist and an activist. He was interested in making the world a better place and inspiring others to do the same. Saturday I took photos during the memorial. These will be painful for some, especially those who knew him or were there. I am sorry for that. I deliberated about posting them, Saturday was heart wrenching enough. But the killing of innocent cyclists in NYC must end!
Most painful of all Saturday was having to watch Ryan of Visual Resistance lead the dedication of Eric's ghost bike. Ryan is a leader of the Visual Resistance ghost bike project in which he makes ghost bikes, generally for people he does not know; but this past week he had to make one for a close friend and install it at the site of his friend's death. In posting these photos hopefully the injustice of this tragedy and of all killed cyclists will reach a bigger audience. I never want to have to attend another memorial like this again.
