Thanks for having a look!
The fall of man is inevitable...
...or so the old ones say. Like every season there must be a harvest before the cycle can begin anew.
Rumor speaks of a harbinger, a 'god' who will rise again to judge those mortal souls when the balance tips. He who will determine their worthiness and cast his verdict. Will they be allowed to press on or will they wither as all crops do at the end of their season?
Legend says that in centuries past he rose to 'judge' mankind. However mankind's greed and desire to defy the natural order led them to bind him. With magic and steel they chained the harbinger, shackled to his own halo and left him in darkness. Years went by, one after another. Decade after decade, century after century. Mankind forgot those legends, forgot its' own actions and forgot the deity it had bound so long ago.
The stories and history fell into darkness as had the harbinger himself. Belief in the old ways waned and so did the magics that bound him. Thus did tiny cracks form, wearing away at the runes on his prison until they too were little more than a faded memory. Those same cracks formed on the shackles that held him, arms locked together. The very chains holding him to his own halo weakening as time passed. As they grew weaker he waited, the ever conscious god knowing eventually his imprisonment would be over. Knowing that like the mortals who had bound him so long ago their magic would also wither and die.
He would wait then, until he was free...

There is a way that nature speaks, land speaks. Most of the time we simply are not patient enough, quiet enough to pay attention to the story. ~ Unknown

"We were doing an event at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Mich. Before speaking, the President was looking at some of the automobiles and exhibits adjacent to the event, and before I knew what was happening he walked onto the famed Rosa Parks bus. He sat in one of the seats, looking out the window for only a few seconds." (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza)

"Speak softly, but carry a big stick. You will go far."
It's a phrase coined by Theodore Roosevelt, although it is possibly a proverb from South Africa. Roosevelt described his style of foreign policy as "the exercise of intelligent forethought and of decisive action sufficiently far in advance of any likely crisis."
I was going to put up a bit about how this relates the ongoing currency war, but I decided to be uncharacteristically soft spoken, instead.

I've always found portrait orientation to be difficult. Our monitors all tend to be wide-screen, and that makes sense, as that's how our eyes are conditioned to view the world. I've never heard of a "tall screen" monitor, after all. [Note: I have since been informed by Dave Wilson that they are available!] Perhaps that's why scroll bars were invented.

Nothing to say really as the photo speaks for itself!
Ok maybe a few words but not to many I have to catch up with my beauty sleep lol.
I spent a wonderful few hours in the company of the lovely Janet just drinking wine chatting and listening to music :-)

"Avoid tunnel vision, let the edges compete for attention in the frame."
a bench in the sun, but only half. the man sits just on the edge, where the light meets the dark. his back turned, shoulders drawn, as if carrying some thought too heavy to share. the shadow swallows most of him, leaving just a sliver of light on his neck. it’s quiet here, though the city hums somewhere beyond. valencia's sharp winter sun cuts the scene into halves—one bright, one black. sometimes, silence feels louder than the noise.

hey mel, are you coming to church today?
I would, jerry, but your church was kinda weird last week.
what do you mean, weird?
man, it was like they were speaking another language.
oh, yeah, it gets like that sometimes. cool, right?
not really. I felt like I was trapped with a bunch of aliens.
yeah? maybe you were.
what?
but don't tell anybody. if you do, we'll know.
that's kinda scary, dude.
I'm just saying, be careful, if you receive my meaning.
my antennae are picking you up loud and clear.
you have antennae too?
no! do you?
of course, but I don't brag about it.
probably a good idea.
