Alternative title: when you are too close to fit the reflection, focus on the bird ;-) Common ringed plovers breed mostly north of the Northern Sea and in Russia, with breeding sites ranging from North East Canada all the way to Russia’s far East. But some of these birds still nests on the southern shores of the Northern and the Baltic Seas. Unfortunately, this species is expected to lose a lot of breeding grounds due to global warming, with the RSPB estimating that about two thirds of the original breeding grounds will no longer provide a suitable habitat at the end of the 21st century. In Germany less than 1000 couples of this species are estimated to breed every year.

The young woman here is beautiful, and I love the reflection of the keyboard in her sunglasses ... but I gotta tell ya: the combination of grass and green-glow on the back of her laptop is out of this world. I have to admit that I used some color saturation to pump up the colors a little ... but not much. This photograph made itself: I just happened to be in the right place, at the right time, to point my camera in the right direction and push the shutter-button...

Being Grateful

Peter Prehn

 

Thanks for eyes,

Taking in the splendid tapestry,

Of our visual world.

For ears which resonate,

The endless reverie of sounds.

Thanks for earth, air, fire and water:

Their harmonizing, intermingling,

Sculpting, washing, blowing, burning.

Weaving our ever regenerating, living geode.

Thanks for the spirit of sacredness,

For entering my heart,

That I may behold life as a mystery,

I wish to enjoin.

Thanks for life itself,

Fragile, powerful surge of energy,

Material made spirit born to consciousness,

Brief soul light burning a maker's candles, organizing chaos.

Thanks for the feeling of Gratitude,

Reflection focused on the span

between suffering and joy,

Tribute to our vitality.

Thanks for listening ears,

Receptive to words of comfort and encouragement.

Thanks for the hugs of friends,

Who hold me close,

When feelings overwhelm me.

Thanks for the calmness in some people's hearts

even as we contemplate our vulnerability

on the brink of oblivion.

Thanks for the courage of some people,

Not to lose hope,

when reason is abandoned

in the world of nations.

Thanks for the feeling of hope.

Experimenting with reflections; focused on the chandelier reflected on the grandfather clock's glass face. I thought the effect looked like a multiple exposure, pretty cool (at least I thought so).

 

Really liking Rodinal; nice, sharp images and I don't mind grain at all. Good value too...

From the Revd Dr William Olhausen:

 

Working out of the Church of Ireland Theological Institute, I am the national coordinator for Continuing Ministerial Education (CME). At the moment, there is an annual programme for ordained priests in their first three years of ministry. Along with everyone else, we have been hit hard by the coronavirus. This has meant missing our final day session with the Dean of St Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin, Dr William Morton, and our annual retreat in the beautiful setting of Mount St Anne's Retreat Centre in Co. Laois.

The CME team decided that it would be really good to at least attempt a final Zoom gathering to mark the end of the year. It proved to be a very successful and encouraging time together! Archbishop John McDowell joined with us to lead us in a Bible reading and reflection.

The Archbishop spoke on 2 Kings 4: 9. On seeing Elisha walk past, the wealthy Shunammite woman remarks to her husband: "Look, I am sure that this man who regularly passes our way is a holy man of God". The reflection focused on the place of holiness in Christian ministry. Even though we were meeting virtually, there was a real sense of fellowship and being ministered to by our new Archbishop. For me, it was particularly helpful to see holiness as something winsome, something pastoral and something grounded in God's love. I also appreciated the quite subtle point that holiness is not something we can obtain like a diet or a fitness plan but comes by spending time with God and allowing ourselves to be a channel for his love. Finally, I also appreciated the Archbishop's gentle challenge to speak truth to power as and when the Spirit compels us.

Once we had prayed together, we broke down into our pastoral support groups. This proved to be a great opportunity to catch up with each other's news, to learn from each other and also to offer encouragement to one another. Next year's programme may continue to be disrupted as we return to a 'new normal' but we will certainly be much more confident of being able to keep in touch and continue to learn and grow together in our discipleship.

Para Todas as crionças um magnifico dia! - Em pleno Feriadão fui assistir filmes. Tem coisa melhor? Para mim não! haha xD

  

Acabei de assistir os filmes:

X-men: Classe A e Água para Elefantes!

 

Ambos muito bons. O primeiro, para quem conhece sabe que é pura ficção científica repleto de efeitos especiais! Porém o último é mais dramático, trás a tona reflexões voltadas para temas polêmicos que envolvem o CIRCO como: O mal trato dos animais, as más condições de trabalho e da moradia/alimentação dos trabalhadores e etc. Tudo isso no enredo que gira entorno de um romance muito bom. Vale apena assistir os 2! :) - Amanhã vejo mais alguns.

 

(Tradução)

 

For All crionças a magnificent day! - In full weekend I was watching movies. What could be better? Not for me! haha xD

 

Just watched the films:

X-Men: Class A and Water for Elephants!

 

Both very good. The first, for those who know know it's pure science fiction filled with special effects! However the latter is more dramatic, sheds some light reflections focused on controversial issues involving how CIRCUS: The maltreatment of animals, poor working conditions and housing / food workers and so on. All this in the plot that revolves around a very good novel. It's worth watching the second! :) - I see some more tomorrow

I love water reflections. focus on the reflection

(1895 - 1920) This company buys in 1895 all the equipment "sector" for heavy-foot divers, and the exploitation of patents pending at the Société des Spécialités Mécaniques. Around 1905, for lack of sales, the Plunging Device was no longer manufactured.

Between 1865 and 1905 around 1,500 Rouquayrol-Denayrouze regulators were manufactured.
