At this time of year I always like to post photos as a way of showing my respect to those that made the ultimate sacrifice. Taken at a local war memorial it was nice to see a father and daughter also sharing that respect.
I dedicate this work to respect abu and emiya.

At the entrance to Soon Tien Kong Chinese temple, South Point, Christmas Island.
This site is very close to a major phosphate mine. In the early days with little environmental control, production was of a scale sufficient to support transport of the extracted ore to Flying Fish Cove by train, where it was transferred to ships for export. The operation relied heavily on Chinese labourers, who built many temples around the island.
A Little White Pointer think bit off more than it should of with Big Momma coming in to say "That is mine & Respect your Elder's!"
A First for everyone onboard as well as the crew.

We had another storm cell develop right @ sunset. Just to the west of the city and it was moving rather slow. 8-10mph to the east.
Didn't know what to expect at first but it was producing some nice strikes every few mins. As I was setting up I thought I had enough light but I didn't have the exposure set correctly. First few pics are shaky due to my inability to set it up on a tripod. I forgot it @ home. So everything was done by hand. I was a little late to the game on this storm.
This storm had some incredible positive cloud to ground & cloud to cloud lightning. Just wish I had that tripod..... Still some good captures. Severe warning on this storm didn't come until it was almost on us. She really put on a Epic show of Light & Storm!

This juvenile Northern Mockingbird had been at the seed cake feeder for a few minutes when this Red headed Woodpecker decided time was up and it was someone else's turn.
However the Mockingbird didn't seem ready to give up his place so soon, so they sat there, swinging back and forth on the feeder for a few tense seconds before the Mockingbird wised up and flew off.
Complicité, confiance, respect, pour certain c'est irréel, pour certain c'est stupide mais dans mon fond intérieur je suis incapable de pas m'en faire ma belle Annabelle je te souhaite tellement une belle vie, une avenir heureuse loin de nous les humains loin de toute méchanceté ..... Je l'aime que voulez vous une rencontre et tous mes sens devienne à l'envers..
“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.”
The Northern Gannet, seen here on the Cliffs of Bempton posturing and looking skywards trying to deter other Gannets looking to encroach on the prime breading real estate.
The Sky here on the day was quite bland with no depth so I chose to monotone the image but bring back the bird in true colour.

The National day of Qatar ( 18 December)
Every December 18th, we celebrate Qatar National Day in commemoration of the historic day in 1878 when Sheikh Jassem, the founder of the State of Qatar, succeeded his father, Sheikh Muhammad Bin Thani, as the ruler and led the country towards unity.
December 18th is the day we remember how Qatari national unity was achieved and how Qatar became a distinct and respected nation out of a society torn apart by conflicting tribal loyalties, devoid of security and order, and overrun by invaders.
Qatar's National Day is about honoring the heroes, leaders and people who built this country.
It's also a chance to reflect on the principles on which Qatar was founded - truth, justice, friendship and brotherhood and to remember the values of generosity, loyalty responsibility and sacrifice which are key to Qatar's success today.
Qatar nation has proved in the past, present, and God willing, the future, to be capable of bringing prosperity and building good relationships, both internally and throughout the Arab and Islamic world.
Qatar has proved that it's more than just oil, gas and commerce, but also a guiding light for education, knowledge, innovation and freedom.
Sheik Jassem died on July 17the 1913 ending a fruitful and memorable life.
He was succeeded by his son Sheikh Abdulla bin Jassem Al Thani.
MEANING OF THE FLAG : The white portion of the Qatar flag symbolizes peace and the maroon, which was formerly red, represents the Kharijite Muslims of Qatar and the bloodshed in Qatar's many wars. The serrated edge represents Qatar as the 9th member of the 'reconciled Emirates' of the Arabian Gulf at the conclusion of the Qatari-British treaty in 1916.

When the first Polynesians came to the Hawaiian islands they respected the forces of lava, sun, ocean and wind as the rules of invisible gods. They understood that angry gods summoned tidal waves and earthquakes. Satisfied gods provided safe fishing and a bountiful harvest.
The ali'i (chiefs and royalty), direct descendants from the gods, carried the gods' mana (spirit, divine power). They were the instruments for the will of the gods. To ensure divine support, an elaborate system of kapu (taboo) evolved. A mistake, as seemingly insignificant as walking in the shadow of a chief, could result in capital punishment.
To give the gods a tangible place for prayer and invocation, the kahunas (priests) and ali'i carved images, according to their own interpretations and needs. The ki'i were wooden statues, often tall and frightening. Filled with divine power, they watched, enforcing the kapu.
Despite his divine connections however, the chief and his people were dependent on each other. There had to be places where a crime against the gods could be forgiven and where harm could not pass.
Throughout the Hawaiian islands, chiefs established pu'uhonua (places of refuge, literally meaning 'hill of earth' ), where a criminal could find forgiveness, escaping death for the kapu he had broken, where a warrior could find healing and respite, where women, children and elderly people could find a safe haven from the battles outside.
The pu'uhonua offered more than physical protection. It was a sanctuary of supernatural power. At each pu'uhonua the ruling chief built a heiau (temple) in his own name. Ki'i saw to the sacredness of the land. The pu'uhonua's greatest power was that of unquestioned forgiving. Here was no punishment for crimes and sin, here ruled no justice or revenge. No matter what the crime might have been, the pu'uhonua offered refuge. A person ready to leave, started out clean.
The Pu'uhonua O Honaunau, in south Kona, is the last remaining historical site of a place of refuge on the Hawaiian islands. Giant ki'i statues tower over the indented bay just south of Kealakekua. Ruins of the oldest platform date back to 1475. Around 1550 the A-le'ale'a Heiau was built , replaced in 1650 by the Hale O Keawe (the house of Keawe). Keawe and his descendants were buried and deified here.
The massive Great Wall, the most impressive monument of ancient Hawaii, shelters the sanctuary. This unequaled feat of heavy lava rocks, 10 feet tall, over 1000 feet long, and 17 feet wide, might have been constructed as early as the first platform.
In 1819, King Liholiho abolished the system of kapu. Christianity swept over the islands, leaving no space for the adoration of gods. Ten years later, in 1829, Queen Ka'ahumanu, widow of King Kamehameha I and newly devoted Christian, ordered the destruction of all sites centered around the system of kapu and the heathen gods.
The ruins of Pu'uhonua O Honaunau have remained. The secluded land on which they rest resonate with a long abandoned past. For over 300 years, chiefs and commoners respected the laws of the land here, where the restoration of balance in the sacred space of refuge, held the final rule.

Acceptance and Kindness. Compassion and Support. Respect and Empathy. Community and Inclusion.
❤️
Those are the values represented in my pride habitats. Those are the values I wish everybody would live by. It would make the world a safer and a better place.
💛💚
Respect should never be selective. It is something every person deserves, regardless of who they are, where they come from, who they love or how they choose to live their lives. You don’t have to fully understand what someone else‘s life and identity feels like to be respectful and kind.
💙💜
Our differences make us unique. Our humanity connects us all.
