Hello my amazing friends !
Another day, another bench to sit on. Those composite pictures are a completely new experience and obsession for me. I hope you like it as much as I do !!! This one is a melancholic bench to sit on and reflect on the last year … or just to watch the universe and think about the future… or the present. Or maybe this is bench for singles to sit on and wait for love ? Who knows ? All we can say is: there is a bench on a pencil with a red ballon floating in mid air and a lamp post. But it is way less romantic than a waiting for love bench…
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well.
Great Crested Grebe - Podiceps Cristatus
BIRD GUIDES NOTEABALE PHOTO May 26-4 June 2019
The great crested grebe has an elaborate mating display. Like all grebes, it nests on the water's edge, since its legs are set relatively far back and it is thus unable to walk very well. Usually two eggs are laid, and the fluffy, striped young grebes are often carried on the adult's back. In a clutch of two or more hatchlings, male and female grebes will each identify their 'favourites', which they alone will care for and teach
Unusually, young grebes are capable of swimming and diving almost at hatching. The adults teach these skills to their young by carrying them on their back and diving, leaving the chicks to float on the surface; they then re-emerge a few feet away so that the chicks may swim back onto them.
The great crested grebe feeds mainly on fish, but also small crustaceans, insects small frogs and newts.
This species was hunted almost to extinction in the United Kingdom in the 19th century for its head plumes, which were used to decorate hats and ladies' undergarments. The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds was set up to help protect this species, which is again a common sight.
The great crested grebe and its behaviour was the subject of one of the landmark publications in avian ethology: Julian Huxley's 1914 paper on The Courtship‐habits of the Great Crested Grebe (Podiceps cristatus).

Hello my amazing friends !
I’m not a happy camper at all…Today, we will have our first snow of the season 22-23, in Montreal. And, if you know me (or even if you don’t know me but you follow me for at least one year), you probably well aware of the fact that I absolute hate winter… Which is ironic since I live in Canada. I feel like the giraffe in my picture: completely out of place today and in urgent need of a bottle of white wine (yes, I know it is not even 9am…). Yesterday, they announced between 10-15 cm of snow, we will see in the morning if the weather forecast was right …Just for the record: I’m totally not at peace with idea of snow in November and I’m not at peace with the idea of Christmas trees in November either !!! Why ??? It is way too early !!! I barely got enough of fall and it is already winter…That is the irony of my life people.
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!

Hello my amazing friends !
This weekend was truly very busy for my husband since he did some major work on our house. We almost finished a huge renovation project and this weekend we had some awesome developments in the decoration department (which is my favourite one so far in the whole process). Our house starts to look more and more like a home and more and more like us (which is truly awesome !). Today, I just found this awesome and very beautiful bar cart from the 1950 and I truly hope I will be able to get myself an early Christmas present… Not only it will be perfect to push (yes it has wheels !!) all my wine bottles around the house but also it will add a truly unique accent to our decor…Wish me luck !!!
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!

Hello my amazing friends !
Another Sunday, another hungover. Yes my friends, I had an awesome time with my parents and my husband yesterday. We had some (lots of …) wine, changed the world and discussed some major problems like social medias, renovations, fashion, jewellery and cosmetics (the last 3 topics were for my Mom and I). We voluntarily avoided snow and politics LOL. Today my head hurts a little bit and I only have an old picture to publish but it doesn't mean that I will not run on my treadmill ! No matter what : I will run… maybe in zigzags and at a rather slow pace but I will do it ! Wish me luck ….
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!

Hello my amazing friends !
Home sweet home… Once again, this weekend, we did some work on our house. We are all still sick so nothing major was done but each time we are closer and closer to the finish line. This project clearly showed us that home is where the heart is. I know for a fact that without my husband, sons and our parents this project would never be possible. So no matter where this house will end up, it will always be my home as long as I’m with my family. And just for your information: our Christmas tree is up and shining bright like a diamond (I know it is late but it is still in time for Christmas...).
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!

Hello my amazing friends !
I must admit, I miss my « old » studio (aka coffee table) and sometimes I can’t wait to put it all back together… Until then, I try to improve my Photoshop skills by revisiting my old pictures. And since, flamingos are my new obsession: my today’s picture is a flamingo but with a touch of love. Have an amazing new week my friends !!
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!

Hello my amazing friends !
It is Monday, everything is back to normal in my case… And Mr. Flamingo is back for his first snow experience. Of course, he loved it ! When you see the beautiful Canadian winter and the snow for the first time you are truly flabbergasted. But then you realize that the snow will stay for a very, very long time … So after few years of Canadian winters you realize that you don’t like the snow as much as you thought the first time… Also, I don’t think the love relation towards snow will last in Mr. Flamingo case: apparently he doesn’t have any winter boots (which are mandatory when you want to spend winter in Canada)…Next time I will have to use some Photoshop magic and give him some winter boots or even a hat, unfortunately it was too late for that today...
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!

Hello my amazing friends !
Who else hates waiting for a bus when it is cold and late outside ? Well apparently Little Prince don’t mind but he is a very positive person for sure. In my case: I prefer walking for hours, during a snowstorm, wearing my most uncomfortable shoes (why do I think about stilettos ???), than waiting for a bus. Of course sometimes, I will arrive much, much later than the bus but at least I didn’t spend a minute waiting near a bus stop doing nothing… Let’s just hope that Little Prince will not have to wait for very long and that the bus will be on time…
FYI: it has been ages since I took a bus, so this picture isn't inspired by my personal experience....and by the way, I hate driving almost as much as I hate waiting for a bus....

La sede della preveggenza nell'arte astratta risiede nell'anima dell'artista, nel suo universo interiore di emozioni, intuizioni e spiritualità, da cui scaturisce la necessità di liberare una "verità più profonda" che va oltre la realtà visibile, usando forme e colori puri per comunicare concetti e stati d'animo, come sosteneva Kandinskij, pioniere di questa ricerca di una dimensione "interiore" dell'arte.
In sintesi, la preveggenza nell'arte astratta non è predizione del futuro, ma la capacità dell'artista di percepire e comunicare l'essenza nascosta delle cose, attingendo a un livello di conoscenza intuitivo e spirituale, rendendo l'opera un ponte tra il mondo interiore e la percezione dello spettatore.

Rhyolite, Nevada, USA
www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftravelnevad...
As one of the most photographed ghost towns in the West, Rhyolite should be a priority when planning a Nevada adventure. This fascinating boomtown sprung to life after a couple of prospectors discovered high-grade, extremely valuable gold ore in 1905. Several mining camps, including Rhyolite, popped up in the region, which later became known as the Bullfrog Mining District.
As if Rhyolite sprung to life overnight, this community quickly became the epicenter of the Bullfrog Mining District and aside from a swelling population, boasted 50 saloons, 35 gambling tables, 19 lodging houses, 16 restaurants, several barbers, a public bath house, and the Rhyolite Herald—a weekly newspaper publication. To add to an already growing population, a hard-to-imagine FOUR daily stagecoaches connected “The World’s Greatest Gold Camp” to Rhyolite, ushering in a steady flow of people to Nevada’s newest gold discovery.
More information coming soon...

SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

In 2010 I belonged to six photographers who were invited to take photo's in the Theatres of Tilburg, during several weeks.
The Theatre celebrated its 50 years anniversary back then. This was one of my photo's at the exhibition that followed. There was also a publication made.
