Little Geraniums are so often over-looked in the garden. They bloom every year quietly and reliably with very little fanfare. That's why I wanted to give these little Geraniums from my garden some star treatment :)
"There's a flame of magic inside every stone and every flower, every bird that sings and every frog that croaks ... a deep, wild magic that's as old as the world itself. It's in you too, my darling girl, and in me, and in every living creature, be it ever so small. Even the dirt I'm sweeping up now is stardust. In fact, all of us are made from the stuff of stars."

“A witch is a woman who emerges from deep within herself. She is a woman who has honestly explored her light and learned to celebrate her darkness. She is a woman who is able to fall in love with the magnificent possibilities of her power. She is a woman who radiates mystery. She is magnetic. She is a witch.”

Shooting stars can be very colorful. While the human eye generally cannot discern many colors, cameras can do so more often. The colors of shooting stars usually come from ionized chemical elements released when the meteoroid disintegrates. Blue-green comes from magnesium, calcium radiates purple, and nickel glows green. Red, on the other hand, generally comes from ionized nitrogen and oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere.

For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.
“Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.”

It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
Now I just can't believe you're in my life
Heaven's smilin' down on me
As I look at you tonight
I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars
Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine
It takes my breath away
Just to look into your eyes
I know I don't deserve a treasure like you
There really are no words
To show my gratitude
I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars
It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew

When I slip into the JUMO Nova Dress, I feel like pure elegance personified. The radiant red fabric I chose from it's marvelous color & texture HUD hugs my curves perfectly, while the off-shoulder design adds just the right amount of allure. Those dramatic puff sleeves, sprinkled with delicate white beading (also customized from its HUD), makes me feel like I’m wearing stardust – it’s impossible not to stand out when I wear this masterpiece.
This dress isn’t just clothing; it’s a statement. Every step I take in it feels bold and unforgettable, whether I’m turning heads at a high-fashion event or simply indulging in the finer things Second Life has to offer.
To complete the look, I’ve paired it with a wide-brimmed red hat that’s as dramatic as the dress itself, wrapped with a soft silver ribbon for a touch of elegance.
The gold Heartsdale Jewellery [HJ] Jhol Topaz necklace with dazzling gemstones adds a hint of sparkle, while my long lace-patterned white gloves give the outfit a timeless, sophisticated finish.
My angular glasses add a modern edge, and this Jumo Beauty deep crimson lip color ties it all together, making me feel unstoppable.
The JUMO Nova Dress isn’t just fashion – it’s an experience. When I wear it, I’m not just dressed; I’m transformed. You deserve to feel this way, too. Find your Jumo Nova Dress at the January Swank Renew Yourself Event and step into a world of luxury.

An exceptional, almost magical event, and yet so easily overlooked, only lasting for seconds, and best observed through binoculars or the zoom lens of the camera:
A sun rise at 3 o’clock in the afternoon.
On the way back from a hike at Mount Edith Cavell I noticed the sun reappearing over the rim of the mountain. Wind blowing over the cliff edge raised fine snow dust and its backlit particles were glowing like sparkling stars on the sky, while the steam of a small cloud colorfully refracted the light, reminding me of the stardust of a far away galaxy.
Certainly something I have not seen before.

I think I can place this image in the “never before seen” category. The main subject here is a micrometeorite smaller than a grain of sand. On the sides, we see rough natural diamonds with impurities that cause them to fluoresce. The diamonds are bathed in ultraviolet light, causing them to emit visible light – the diamonds are the source of light for this photo. Light within diamonds illuminating stardust.
Taken with a Mitutoyo Plan APO 20x microscope objective, the full image required 575 frames to focus stack. The stacking was done with a continuous light source, so the best option here is to switch your camera to an electronic shutter. At these magnifications, the mechanical shutter shakes the camera enough to create blurry images when not using flash. The software used here is important: Helicon Focus. It’s by far the most efficient and powerful tool for extensive focus stacking, but more importantly: The company is based in Kharkiv, Ukraine. If you’re into macro photography and microscopy, check them out: www.heliconsoft.com/ - they have a 20% off sale right now.
The situation in Ukraine is optimistic and dire simultaneously, with constant bombardment from Russian missiles aimed at civilian infrastructure. Putin’s Russia is attempting to destroy the electricity grid which would keep Ukrainians in the dark, and without heat. Such an act on its own could be considered a genocide by the Geneva Conventions, on top of the other genocidal war crimes already committed in 2022… and earlier. The true spirit of Ukraine was seen over the holidays, when those without power helped others in their community, uniting strangers for essential aid but also festive cheer.
The world continues to send aid to Ukraine. The first US “Patriot” missile defense system is reported to be en route to Ukraine. A month ago, the Bulgarian government formally announced that they are sending military equipment and weapons to support Ukraine. Weapons manufacturers around the world are making ammunition as quickly as possible to replenish stockpiles from those that have given the Ukrainian military everything they could. The “war machine” around the planet is in motion.
It feels like the world is watching from the sidelines, with the goal of destroying Russia while simultaneously being weary of China. The goal should be for Ukraine to win, but to offer too much support too quickly would possibly cause Russia to back away with a massive military still intact… or use the unthinkably devastating weapons. The goal seems to be wearing down the Russian forces until there is nothing left, while cruise missiles impact on homes and hotels. Innocent lives are lost in the process.
Sanctions appear to be working, but Russian weapons are still being built. Cruise missiles recently launched at Ukrainian civilian targets can be traced to manufacturing dates in September 2022. Drones continue to arrive from Iran, though thankfully they have been largely ineffective on the battlefield and are shot out of the sky. Rumours of weapons shipments from North Korea are gaining credibility. Weapons alone cannot win a war, and Russia is running very low on its most important asset: trained soldiers.
The losses continue in huge numbers, with over 700 Russian soldiers killed in action every day. Many of these men have almost no training, and are being sent to areas such as Bakhmut where the Ukrainian forces decimate wave after wave of frontal attacks, losing no ground in the process.
Soon, the fields will be frozen. New territory will be liberated by the Ukrainian people. I sincerely hope that when the front line is broken once again, the Russian efforts will dissolve along with their current government. Some sources suggest that Putin has a plan to escape to Venezuela if his government collapses, although such things are impossible to verify. This winter will be the most important phase of this global conflict.
Do you sit back and watch? Most of us do. This is a reminder that you can do something to help. Write to your politicians and say that you’d rather Ukraine win swiftly at this point, since Russia is no longer a threat to the West. You can create artwork, you can donate money, and you can vote with your wallet. Personally, I now avoid buying anything from a company that still operates in Russia. You can find that list here: www.dontfundwar.com/directory . There are companies in Ukraine you can support as well – I previously mentioned HeliconSoft, but I’ve purchased some delicious spices from this store: www.ebay.com/str/ethnofoods . I’m certain there are countless other things that can be sourced from Ukraine (I’m a big fan of cast iron cookware made in Ukraine from BIOL and Maysternya).
Stay safe out there, folks. To my friends and family in Ukraine, I think about you every day. Слава Україні!
[FR] Sous l’immensité étoilée, un arbre solitaire se dresse comme un veilleur silencieux, semblant rêver des mystères du cosmos. La Voie Lactée éclaire la scène de sa lumière douce et infinie, tandis que l’horizon estompe la frontière entre ciel et mer. Niché au sommet d’une colline paisible, cet arbre courbé par le temps semble converser avec les étoiles, m’invitant à m’évader dans la profondeur du ciel nocturne et à me perdre dans l’infini des rêves.
[EN] Under the starry immensity, a solitary tree stands like a silent guardian, seemingly dreaming of the mysteries of the cosmos. The Milky Way illuminates the scene with its soft and infinite light, while the horizon blurs the boundary between sky and sea. Perched atop a peaceful hill, this time-worn tree appears to converse with the stars, inviting me to escape into the depths of the night sky and lose myself in the infinity of dreams.
