Christmas Eve, is a perfect time to find your Smile reflected in a Bauble........
A Time of Celebration, with family and friends may it be filled with Joy and Peace......Happy Christmas.
It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart. Talking isn't doing. It is a kind of good deed to say well; and yet words are not deeds. The most important things are the hardest things to say.......
In 1717, the ship Squirrel brought Samuel Shute, the royal governor of Massachusetts, to Arrowsic Island on the Kennebec River to renew a peace treaty with the local Indians. The ship ran aground but was later refloated, and the incident was memorialized in the name given to the location: Squirrel Point. The Squirrel Point Light was erected in 1898, and several other buildings were added later. The light was automated in the early 1980s, but before that there were many lighthouse keepers and their families who lived in a house nearby. We saw the lighthouse during a very fun and informative lighthouse cruise in Maine.

Sint Nicholaskerk is the most seen and at the same time overlooked church in Amsterdam as well as being one its most recent constructions, no one can miss this iconic structure upon arrival to the city walking from Centraal Station your eye is immediately drawn to it at 58 m in height it towers over the city skyline.
This Roman Catholic Church was designed by Architect Adrianus Bleijs and is a nod to the past combining elements of neo-Baroque and neo-Renaissance styles, completed in 1887 it was made a minor Basilica in 2012.
The church is dedicated to the 4th century charitable patron saint of children that became our Santa Claus as well as the patron saint of sailors and prostitutes, another winning combination.
In the Netherlands Santa Claus is known as Sinterklaas and a feast has been celebrated for over 700 years in his name and adopted in the early part of 20th century the tradition of leaving small gifts in children’s shoes was practiced on Dec 6th which has evolved now to become a Dec 5th evening tradition of gathering of family and friends to exchange gifts and laughter.
While Dutch Sinterklaas celebrations are mainly for the children its adult component is an annual grievance poem written to the recipient that must rhyme and be read out loud by the subject at the evening party all in good fun but beware you may get as good as you give.
I took this on Sept 10th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 58mm 15 sec f/16 ISO100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO
Disclaimer: My style is a study of romantic realism as well as a work in progress

Once upon a time I would visit my grandmother twice a week, every week for a couple of hours. When I would get up to leave she would say to me "You didn't stay very long, come back when you can stay longer." Well, that is how I feel about some of these butterflies.
The Palamedes is one that I will actually chase about the yard. They visit on occasion and they don't stay long enough if you ask me. This one was playing hide and seek. He would sip some nectar then fly over the fence to the neighbors yard and circle back to a different location in the yard. I would find him, try and get a shot or two and off he would go again.
Little bugger, kept his eye on me the whole time and stayed pretty much out of reach of the camera. Like the Tiger, I have never had the opportunity to raise any of these beauties. Perhaps one day that will change. For now, I shall just enjoy the visits and play the games. Well, I won't always play the games, sometimes the visits will have to be enjoyed in my head. Just knowing they are out there is a good feeling.
Have a terrific Tuesday and happy snapping.
Isaiah 28:13 “But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.”
“May the light of the morning sun, shine upon you. May the deepest and sweetest love always find you.” - Dr. Debasish Mridha (American physician, philosopher, poet-seer, and author).
The theme for “Looking Close on Friday” for the 25th of February is “monochromatic bubble bokeh”. The day the theme was announced, it was a beautiful sunny morning, and I had the French doors open onto my garden. All I had to do to meet the theme for this week was to take a few steps out onto my back terrace and there was the perfect shot: some new growth on one of the James Stirling Pittosporums bathed in the morning light. The gentle light was perfect to make lots of bubble bokeh in my background as it filtered through the leaves of the trees. The shot was very green in colour, so I originally made the monochrome green, but found the sepia gave it a warmer feel. I hope you like my choice of the theme this week, and that it makes you smile.

All is occupied, but feel free to come and visit the public part :)
"Luanes World - Live the Dream", is the newest addition to the Luanes World sims. But as a difference to "Luanes World" @Slice of Heaven and "Luanes Magical World" @ Morning Glow, who are public sims, "Luanes World - Live the Dream" @ Tabara is a residential sim.
The rentals consist of 7 different houses, all with water view.
The rest of the sim is free for all to use, and enjoy.
Note this sim is moderate, so keep everything naughty inside of your house:)
Please respect the privacy of the other tenants - do not contact anybody else, when they are in the privacy of their own home. If you meet them in the public areas, you can of course say hi :)
Price:
Each rental, no matter which house you choose, is 799/week, with a 2 week minimum pay the first time.
After the first payment you can pay between 1-4 weeks at a time.
Prims:
You get 250 prims to decorate the house, and the nearest surrounding with. Please keep within the prim limit, as we all have to share the prims available.
If you need additional prims, you can buy extra prims - in units of 25 prims for 75 linden/week. Write me a notecard if you want your prim limit changed.
Privacy:
Each rental has it's own security orb, and the parcel setting is set to private, so you will be invisible to people from outside the parcel.
You can add people to the security orb, once I have set it up for you.
Music and parcel name and description:
If you want the parcel to have a specific name and/or description, write it in a notecard, and I will add that for you.
Also if you would like a specific music stream, you can put that in a notecard as well, and I will change that for you.
Luanes Residential World Group:
"Luanes World - Live the Dream" @ Tabara has its own group where only tenants will be able to join (as well as subtenants). Only members of this group will be able to rezz on the sim, but the public parts are open for everybody.
Upon renting a house, send me a notecard, and I will invite you to the group, so you can start decorating your new home. Any subtenants you need adding, you put in the notecard as well. Note that this is only needed, if they need to be able to rezz as well.
If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact me. If I am not online, please send a notecard, as my IM's get capped.
Sincerely LuaneMeo.
Cole River
Swansea, Massachusetts
Heavy clouds to the south of the Cole River part enough to allow for some deep B&W IR photography on a warm summer morning. Having grown up on the southern, tidal end of the river where it meets Mount Hope Bay, I was unaware this lazy body of water miles away is part of it. The large rock left of center is a favorite perch of aquatic and wading birds; lately its been occupied by a double-crested cormorant—in years past, a great blue heron.
To my American friends, have a happy and safe 4th of July!
Filters: 590 nm IR (camera conversion by LifePixel)
I actually had to go across the road for this one ;) The sun as you can see was obscured by the cloud. It has been really cloudy and very hot here of late. On Saturday it was apparently 41 degrees and that was the hottest in November this town has seen since 1956. The "talk" is we are due for a cyclone, which may form in the next 2 weeks because of the weather...we shall see.....
Happy days everyone : ) Car
Quleh ruins, Central Israel. In 1948, Quleh was completely destroyed due to the Israel Independence War. The Arab inhabitants fled and what remains now is the ruins and trees and grass growing inside them. The landscape looks fantastic as any little hill in the forest may suddenly turn out to be a destroyed building covered by grass and bushes. The accidental sun reflexes added to the atmosphere of the place.
Day after day, day after day,
We stuck, nor breath nor motion;
As idle as a painted ship
Upon a painted ocean.
- Samuel Taylor Coleridge, The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner
