"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost." - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
Imagen que pretende mostrar la fuerza de los rayos solares al atardecer ya en febrero, mes en el que se dice que busca la sombra el perro. Los que descansaban ahi hace cuatro mil años estaban en un sitio muy bien preparado y valorado por sus descendientes. El sol no les faltaba a los pobres.
A la derecha de la imagen, en la lejanía, se muestra el mas importante dolmen de la Rioja Alavesa, el de la Txabola de la Hechicera. Una evidencia de la actividad pastoril que existía en la zona mucho antes de la llegada de la civilización cristiana.
Una vista amplia del sector oriental de la Rioja Alavesa, entre campos de cereal y viñedos, con detallada presencia de la cultura prehistórica, como atestiguan estos yacimientos megalíticos.
Muchísimas gracias a todos los amigos de flickr por sus amables visitas, comentarios y premios a estas imágenes
My favourite way to pretend it is spring is to buy some spring bulbs and have them bloom in January. As long as I don't look out the kitchen window, I can blissfully spend the morning thinking it is springtime. I need to practise taking photos of these Iris ... I am having trouble getting the lighting right.
Please NO group invites! Thank you ...
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
Tomorrow I'll miss you
Remember I'll always be true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home everyday
And I'll send all my loving to you
I'll pretend that I'm kissing
The lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home everyday
And I'll send all my loving to you
All my loving I will send to you
All my loving, darling, I'll be true
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
Tomorrow I'll miss you
Remember I'll always be true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home everyday
And I'll send all my loving to you
All my loving I will send to you
All my loving, darling, I'll be true
All my loving, All my loving
All my loving I will send to you

When I returned home, Bella was in her furry bed, with her chin propped on the side of it as usual. I managed to take photos before she moved - but she kept looking at me then closing her eyes again to pretend she was still asleep. Sulking because lunch was late, perhaps. Happy Caturday!
I cannot pretend to feel impartial about colours. I rejoice with the brilliant ones and am genuinely sorry for the poor browns.
--Sir Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now.
A wish right now.

This young hairy woodpecker is still trying to get the hang of walking on a tree branch. At least he's got a good grip! I suppose he could just be playing around and pretending to be a sloth too.
These shutters are made of corrugated cardboard, dreamed up by the talented and imaginative staff at Anthropologie. Possibly my favorite store......
There are actually whole houses made of cardboard in the Netherlands, for sale anywhere. They are treated with a special coating and reinforced here and there with pine. That's another kind of imagination....

The Timekeeper is like all of us...measuring his days and trying not to mix them up...feeling the weight of the collective months add up and all those moments in between small and larger. He can't forget any of them but pretends he does anyway sometimes. He always remembers in his dreams, though.

For some reason my 28-300mm lens hasn't sharply focussed on this lovely little Pied Butcherbird that has been around for the last few days. I decided to stick the shot up today for Wing Wednesday as he or she has been down pretending to be a Galah this afternoon, even trying a couple of seeds.
It doesn't seem to bother the Galahs and vice versa even during this afternoon's unusual overcrowded melee. I think they are all off early to Suncorp Stadium to watch the second game of the Rugby League State of Origin. The Galahs can't manage maroon so pink will have to be close enough!

Please, don't "award" my photo with post & copy comments, gif's and other glittering self- or group-promoting stuff.
Let's pretend Rich had got focus past the trees and nailed this beauty, lets further pretend that he'd put his beer can 300mm in his pocket so he'd be ready to get this shot, but alas.... I'm only posting it so you can get a blurry hint of the amazing sight that I had for a full ten seconds and then he was gone. Exhilarating doesn't cover it, wish I had got the shot, but dang it was beautiful. :-)
Look at me! I'm a shark!

Beware, Kitty on the prowl
her focused cat eyes
not to mention how fast she can pounce!
Kitty is a housecat but when her family is outside
she loves to pretend she's on a hunt.

I'm sittin' in the railway station
Got a ticket to my destination
On a tour of one-night stands
My suitcase and guitar in hand
And every stop is neatly planned
For a poet and a one-man band
Homeward bound
I wish I was
Homeward bound
Home where my thought's escapin'
Home where my music's playin'
Home where my love lies waitin'
Silently for me
Every day's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines
And each town looks the same to me
The movies and the factories
And every stranger's face I see
Reminds me that I long to be
Homeward bound
I wish I was
Homeward bound
Tonight I'll sing my songs again
I'll play the game and pretend
But all my words come back to me
In shades of mediocrity
Like emptiness in harmony
I need someone to comfort me
Homeward bound
I wish I was
Homeward bound
2015. 10.31 Budapest (behind a tram light line)
Little Princess on the The Danube Promenade (Dunakorzó), sitting on the railings by the embankment; was created by László Marton (1925–2008)
The artist was inspired by his eldest daughter born from his first marriage.
She often played in Budapest, wearing a princess costume and a crown made out of newspaper by her father, and at home as well, pretending her bathrobes were a mantle.
This image prompted her father, the artist in the creation of this little statue.
If I wear a mask . . .
I can fool the world . . .
But I can't fool My heart . . .
Who is that girl I see . . .
Staring straight back at me??!
Why is my reflection . . .
Someone I don’t know ??!
Must I pretend that i’m . . .
Someone else for all time??!!
When will my reflection show . . .
Who I am INSIDE ??!!
Are we machines
Obsolete, alone
With symbiotic self indulgence
And if we dig deep
The circuitry burnt out, bends
Into neurotic repetition.
