Promesas de días mejores, de mejores sueños, de mejores luces, de menos sombras...... -Promises of better days, better sleep, better lighting, less shadows ......
"Promise Me:" I caught the tail end of a rainbow from a light storm that dissipated quicker than any other I'd ever seen. When I headed out, there were lots of dark clouds, and by the time I got to my location only a few minutes later, the sky was almost completely blue. Normally I would see clouds start to diminish in size as a storm ended and migrate across the sky, but this one really just vanished completely overhead. Some lingering sprinkles allowed me a brief chance to take a couple pictures of this rainbow before it too disappeared!

Sixty six promises
Fell from your lips
Sixty six kisses to
Rest on my charred fingertips
And Sixty six lovers
To come till I tell
Sixty six postions to take on this
Well-worn trail
Sixty six magicians
Deliver the goods
Documenting our marriage for some
Silent film in Hollywood
Is it not what you thought it would be?
Was it not what you wanted it to be
Was I not what you thought I would be?
Was it not what you wanted it to be?
Sixty miles talking
But making no sense
A life out of liberty
And the pursuit of
Happiness
Waiting for something
To smash a few wholes
In the wall of good fortune
And the windows to an
Outer world
And sixty six promises
They came in a kiss
Provided a meaning
Now I see how it reallly is
And it's not what I thought it would be
And it's not what I wanted ti to be
And it's not what I thought it would be
And it's not what I wanted it to be
PJ Harvey
I made myself a promise that I will go there again only when it will all be dead. Only then, it will be ready to be born again. And so the time came, and I took myself there. To...
Κάθησε δίπλα του στο παγκάκι και κοιτούσε τα χρυσαφιά φύλλα να πέφτουν σαν αργή Αυγουστιάτικη βροχή πάνω στα σώματά τους. Το χέρι της έψαξε το δικό στις χαρακιές του ξύλου και γυρνώντας το κεφάλι πρός τα αριστερά, στο μέρος του, χαμογέλασε όπως όταν πρωτοστάθηκε μπροστά του.
Η μυρωδιά στην άκρη των χειλιών του
Η αλμύρα κάτω από τα βλέφαρά του
Η γεύση της ανάσας του μέσα στο φιλί τους
Ο αόρατος ήχος της τριβής στο σμίξιμο των ακροδάχτυλων τους.
Η ανάμνηση.
Η μνήμη.
Η ύπαρξη.
Η αντάμωση.
Η λήθη.
Η αθανασία.
Η ζωή, η ίδια.
Όλα συνέβησαν για να συναντηθούν
και συναντήθηκαν για να ζήσουν,
μέχρι η αιωνιότητα να γίνει η γή και ο χρονος του
έρωτα.

Promises likened to
The most fragile of flowers
They drifted on the winds
Of a broken love
After being sprinkled
With black blood
But I held tighter yet back then
In hope that they would fly back again

Thank you so much for the shoot Ayumi! Vous êtes belle

The amaryllis bulbs sold in your local nursery are probably Hippeastrum, which are native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas from Argentina north to Mexico and the Caribbean. These Hippeastrum buds promise lots of holiday cheer.
Hope your week is off to a good start, Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

Waking up in a hospital room after having open-heart surgery, this sunrise gave me hope and the promise of a new day.
“Some people don't understand the promises they're making when they make them," I said.
"Right, of course. But you keep the promise anyway. That's what love is. Love is keeping the promise anyway.”

Today was great :) we had no afternoon school so i met my best friend and we took some photos. this is one of them and i just love these first blossoms! :)
In Portsmouth, New Hampshire, there's a fence with the special meanings of love and romance that hang on a park fence near the Piscataqua River. I like to call it the love lock fence with solemn promises for true love and happiness. The fence has anywhere from I love you to will you marry me and many other locks with terms of endearment. I hope this Queen said yes to her King and may their future be forever on this love lock fence.
Jordan is a concentration of historical places, and even if you drive just downtown for a causal weekend, you end up in a Roman amphitheater that dates back to 138 CE.
Last weekend, we decided to drive around Amman, capturing no further than 30km. We ended up seeing 3 significant historical places, including the Baptism Site on Jordan river, where Jesus was baptized, Mount Nebo, where Moses received the 10 testaments from God, and Madaba – the old city of Mosaics.
First off with Mount Nebo...
{Edited from Wikipedia}
“Mount Nebo is an elevated ridge in Jordan, approximately 817 metres (2,680 ft)above sea level, mentioned in the Bible as the place where Moseswas granted a view of the Promised Land. The view from the summit provides a panorama of the Holy Land and, to the north, a more limited one of the valley of the River Jordan. The West Bank city of Jericho is usually visible from the summit, as is Jerusalemon a very clear day.
According to the final chapter of the Book of Deuteronomy, Moses ascended Mount Nebo to view the Land of Israel, that he would never enter, and to die; he was buried in an unknown valley location in Moab.
According to Christian tradition, Moses was buried on the mountain, although his place of burial is not specified. Some Islamic traditions also stated the same, although there is a grave of Moses located at Maqam El-Nabi Musa, south of Jericho and 20 km east of Jerusalem in the Judean wilderness. Scholars continue to dispute whether the mountain currently known as Nebo is the same as the mountain referred to in Deuteronomy.
On the highest point of the mountain, the remains of a Byzantine church and monastery were discovered in 1933.The church was first constructed in the second half of the 4th century to commemorate the place of Moses' death. The church design follows a typical basilica pattern. It was enlarged in the late fifth century A.D. and rebuilt in A.D. 597. The church is first mentioned in an account of a pilgrimage made by a lady Aetheria in A.D. 394. Six tombs have been found hollowed from the natural rock beneath the mosaic-covered floor of the church. In the modern chapel presbytery, built to protect the site and provide worship space, remnants of mosaic floors from different periods can be seen. The earliest of these is a panel with a braided cross presently placed on the east end of the south wall.”
This photo shows part of the mosaics of the Byzantine church. There is nothing much preserved from what used to be the church. Currently, they’re building a new church and at the time we visited the construction was ongoing.
Thanks for your visit and have a great day!
The Promise is a visually stunning sim, depicting a demon-conquered dark fantasy world...think Hieronymus Bosch meets Hellboy. It's located at: maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Cool%20Bay/169/140/22
There is something very special about our sun. I was sitting in my chair facing the fire last wednesday and the sun was creating the most beautiful shadow on my wall, I first tried to photograph the shadow but then I aimed the camera behind me and that's when I saw the beauty. This was taken last Wednesday just before I got nice and sick. I was trying to get warm from the fire in front of me and the sun behind me, I never really got warm this day and it got worse from there. That's why I have been away for almost a week. Little dude Dylan is now sick and Rich is is the strong one, he got sick last Tuesday and today he decided he could go to work, I just want to crawl back to bed.

Taken this morning when I was in my photoshoot frenzy mood. Pretty much all of my shots this morning were with the head cut off. I just love the idea of an identity-less person.
