The clocks turned - Earth reassuringly continued to rotate, and apparently "Seconds" even leapt.
Regardless - 2017 arrived right on time.

One of the reasons I live on a 7,000 foot saddle between Utah and Colorado is that the winter sun shines longer than in the valleys I've lived in most of my adult life. We don't get the deep winter shadows and temperature inversions that plague Moab or Logan that caused cabin fever.
The sound interrupted by unknown armies
They make the petals of the now closed flowers tremble
The once free branches
They descend tangled to the ground, touching the unsafe ground
Ravens in love have left the nest that, naked,
he remains defenseless without a voice
the light that filters still asks in confusion why
so much fear and so much silence
someone, but I don't know who, answers in a weak but clear voice
indignant: the Revolution!

Cromford Mill, the world’s first successful water powered cotton spinning mill, was built in 1771 by Sir Richard Arkwright.
From then until around 1790, he continued to develop the mills, warehouses and workshops, which now form the Cromford Mills site. Considered as a whole, it presents a remarkable picture of an early textile factory complex.
Sir Richard Arkwright’s invention of the waterframe to spin cotton transformed the manufacture of cotton into England’s major industry and created a system of factory production that spread throughout the world. The cotton industry was a cornerstone of the industrial revolution.
Arkwright took out a patent for his waterframe in 1769 and moved from Preston to Nottingham to set up a horse powered mill to run his machines. Driven by the need for more power he searched for a site to build a water powered mill and settled upon Cromford, using the Bonsall Brook and the Cromford Sough. In 1771 he set about building the first mill here.
In the next few years, the site grew rapidly, and Arkwright needed to attract more workers to the area; he expanded Cromford Village with the building of Derbyshire’s first row of planned industrial housing on North Street in 1776. Arkwright later built the marketplace, the Greyhound Hotel, and further housing for his growing workforce to create the village you see today

The Palais de la Cité, located on the Île de la Cité in the Seine River in the center of Paris, was the residence of the Kings of France from the sixth century until the 14th century. From the 14th century until the French Revolution, it was the headquarters of the French treasury, judicial system and the Parlement of Paris, an assembly of nobles. During the Revolution it served as a courthouse and prison, where Marie Antoinette and other prisoners were held and tried by the Revolutionary Tribunal. The palace was built and rebuilt over the course of six centuries; the site is now largely occupied by the buildings of the 19th century Palais de Justice, but a few important vestiges remain; the medieval lower hall of the Conciergerie, four towers along the Seine, and, most important, Sainte-Chapelle, the former chapel of the Palace, masterpiece of Gothic architecture. Both parts of the Conciergerie and Saint-Chapelle are classified as national historical monuments and can be visited, though most of the Palais de Justice is closed to the public.
In order to “read” the photo, and for the non-portuguese:
Yesterday Portuguese celebrated the 1974 25th April revolution, which ended the dictatorship regime that lasted throughout several decades.
Caía la tarde en la marisma y la orilla del estero ya estaba en sombra. Este correlimos menudo ( Calidris minuta) venia de bañarse en la zona soleada. La poca luz de la orilla me obligaba a disparar con mucho menos velocidad de obturación para poder retratarlo pero las sacudidas son increíblemente rápidas, incluso para buenas condiciones de luz. El resultado me pareció curioso.

Evening was falling on the marsh and the shore of the estuary was already in shadow. This little stint (Calidris minuta) came from bathing in the sunny area. The low light on the shore forced me to shoot with a much slower shutter speed in order to capture it, but the shake is incredibly fast, even for good lighting conditions. The result seemed curious to me.

Feeling radical in Cotton
Purified in my Satin

I look at the sky
And feel the tears of the
Prophets crying
I look at the sky
And feel the rain

Feeling radical in Cotton
Purified in my Satin
But the bomb of the season

There's a new Commandment

ci sono emozioni che nessuno può capire fino a che non le vive....ci sono coincidenze che alle volte lasciano il fiato sospeso...ci sono persone che ti sembra di conoscere da sempre....
poi c'è la realtà...fatta di coraggio, di scelte....fatta di mal di stomaco..fatta di lacrime....ma sono convinta, perchè DEVE essere per forza così, che la strada giusta arriverà, che non ci si può sempre sbagliare e sopratutto..BASTA le mani sugli occhi....guardiamo davvero dentro al nostro cuore (magari bevendoci su un pò di sambuca o rum)......
