This adorable rabbit was enjoying a salad of clover in my yard. When the sun broke through the clouds, the complex network of veins in the rabbit's long ears seemed to glow.

Elles ne durent que l’espace d’un moment et pourtant je vous
invite à regarder ces quelques gouttes de rosée qui fertilisent
la terre et apportent dans leur sillage la mémoire de la vie.
Au creux des feuilles telles des mains ouvertes, dans les herbes,
patiemment la nature les recueille. Selon l’ancienne légende
rapportée par Homère, se sont les larmes d'Aurore, la déesse
aux doigts de rose qui ouvre les portes du jour..
They last only a brief moment and yet, I invite you to look
more closely at these droplets that fertilize the earth and
convey the memory of life in their wake. Nature collects them
patiently on bent grass stalk and leaf’s welcoming hollow.
According to the legend recorded by Homer they were Aurora’s
tears, the goddess whose roseate fingers initiated the day..

The fire of a candle coloured through the colourful glass flowers and translucent beads.
O fogo de uma vela ganha cor através do colorido das flores de vidro e das missangas transparentes.
Branches, sheer translucent leaves—
You would die to get under them forever, if it were given you,
The park, on this, a day like any other day,
And not the knowledge of everyone ever met
Who will come upon you, sooner or later,
If only you stay here.

"I don't know what it is like to not have deep emotions. Even when I feel nothing, I feel it completely."

A weathered razor shell picks up the last rays of the sun on the wet beach.
Fresh razor-clam shells are shiny shades of brown in a pattern resembling oblong growth rings. In time contact with the sand abrades the brown coating away, revealing the natural, calcium-based shell below,

This little silverside (Menidia menidia) had trapped itself under a small rock in an almost completely drained tidepool. It was probably running from striped bass or bluefish at high tide, and opted for a rocky grave rather than be eaten. There were more of them around, head down between little rocks with no way to escape once there was no water. All that we found were dead, except this one, which my son released into the open water.
These are a beautiful little fish with very translucent flesh. It almost looks fake when you look at it closely, with its silvery internal lateral line and bright white gut and gills showing through. Distinct outlines on it's back define its scales and layers of blue, green and purple flash as light refracts off it's mirror-like cheeks.

Here, the jacket was sewn entirely in a blue cotton organdy (the color of hydrangeas) and therefore will be translucent and stiff. Pale golden machine embroidery will embellish this piece full of semi-transparency.
Thank you very much for your visiting!
The early morning sun shines through the back of a breaking wave at Nauset Beach in Orleans, MA, making it glow from within.
The Engineering Building (1959–1963) was the first major building by British architects James Stirling and James Gowan. This Grade II* listed building comprises workshops and laboratories at ground level, and a tower containing offices and lecture theatres.
The building is part of the Red Trilogy by James Stirling. Beginning in the late 1950s, the architect designed three university buildings featuring distinctly red materials: red bricks and red tiles. The Red Trilogy includes the Engineering Building, University of Leicester (1959–1963), the Faculty of History, University of Cambridge (1964–1967), and the Florey Building, The Queen's College, Oxford (1966–1971). James Stirling and James Gowan worked together on the design for the Engineering Building. The Trilogy's two later buildings were designed by Stirling, without Gowan.
The Engineering Building is a large and complex structure. Stirling and Gowan were tasked to design spaces for offices, laboratories, auditorium, and workshops with heavy machinery. The design also includes a water tank on top. The workshops are located in the low-rise section of the building, in a hall with a rectangular floor plan. Connected to the workshop hall is the tower, which houses auditorium, offices, and laboratories. The water tank sits on top of the tower. The tower section is notable for its chamfered edges and its prismatic geometry. The auditorium is located at the base of the tower. The auditoriums seating arrangement is designed typically stadium-like with staggered rows of seats. The angled auditorium floor results in a pronounced wedge-shape on the building's exterior. The tower's facades are clad in glass and red tiles, the workshop hall's facade is entirely made of frosted glass.
A unique feature of the workshop hall is its roof construction. The roof's geometry is rotated by 45 degrees in respect to the floor plan's orientation. This results in a unique jagged roof line and a diamond-pattern-like perimeter. The roof appears as a series of multiple translucent prisms. The translucent effect was achieved by lining the glass panes with fibre-glass. Other parts of the glass shell are completely opaque, in contrast. Here, the glass panes were coated with a thin layer of aluminium.
Stirling and Gowan were commissioned in 1957. The design is dated to 1959. Construction lasted from 1960 to 1963. The consulting structural engineer was Frank Newby.
