~ Theia was the Titan goddess of shining and light, associated with all that glimmers. She endowed gold, silver, other metals, and gems with their radiance and intrinsic value. In fact, Pindar's odes described Theia as the goddess after whom people beheld gold as the most valuable shining object. ~

La Mezquita de Almonaster la Real fue construida entre los siglos IX y X y se encuentra en el interior de los restos amurallados del Castillo de Almonaster.
Fue levantada sobre los restos de una basílica visigoda del siglo VI, cuyos materiales se reutilizaron. Después de la reconquista fue convertida en una ermita. Es una construcción de planta trapezoidal, forma que probablemente fuera determinada por el declive del terreno. Se observa en la estructura del templo una organización clásica de los lugares de culto islámico. La fábrica del edificio es de ladrillo, sillares de granito y mampostería.
Se trata de un conjunto histórico y artístico de un valor excepcional, por ser la única mezquita andalusí que se ha conservado casi intacta en España en una zona rural. (Wikipedia)
The Almonaster la Real Mosque was built between the 9th and 10th centuries and is located inside the walled remains of the Almonaster Castle.It was built on the remains of a Visigothic basilica from the 6th century, the materials of which were reused. After the reconquest it was converted into a hermitage. It is a trapezoidal floor construction, a shape that was probably determined by the slope of the terrain. A classic organization of the places of Islamic worship is observed in the structure of the temple. The building's factory is made of brick, granite ashlars and masonry. It is an historical and artistic complex of exceptional value, as it is the only Andalusian mosque that has been preserved almost intact in Spain in a rural area.
La mosquée Almonaster la Real a été construite entre le 9e et le 10e siècle et est située à l'intérieur des vestiges fortifiés du château d'Almonaster.Il a été construit sur les vestiges d'une basilique wisigothique du VIe siècle, dont les matériaux ont été réutilisés. Après la reconquête, il a été transformé en ermitage. Il s'agit d'une construction de sol trapézoïdale, une forme qui a probablement été déterminée par la pente du terrain. Une organisation classique des lieux de culte islamique est observée dans la structure du temple. L'usine du bâtiment est faite de briques, de pierres de taille en granit et de maçonnerie. C'est un complexe historique et artistique d'une valeur exceptionnelle, car c'est la seule mosquée andalouse qui a été préservée presque intacte en Espagne dans une zone rurale.
Kojori Fortress was built atop Azeuli Mountain, at a height of 1,250 metres above sea level. According to historians, the fortress was constructed sometime during the 11th century. Built in multiple layers atop the cliffs, this fortress once protected the caravan road connecting Tbilisi to Armenia, and was of immense strategic importance during the Middle Ages.
Korjoli Fortress was built of crushed stone and brick, and was plastered with thick mortar. Today, only the ruins of the walls and two of its towers remain, but these ruins speak to numerous battles and sieges over the centuries. The ruins afford visitors a beautiful view of Kartli’s wide-open spaces.
The last battle to take place at Kojori Fortress took place in 1921, when the 11th Army of the Russian Red Army faced Georgian cadets. A memorial in honour of these fallen cadets stands there today.
In addition to its historical value, Kojori is also a spectacular place for relaxing in nature, having a picnic, and doing a little light hiking in the nearby forest. This region, once the summer residence of kings, is today open to the public to enjoy.
Die Scheich-Zayid-Moschee in Abu Dhabi ist die größte Moschee in den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten und die drittgrößte der Welt. Das Sakralbauwerk befindet sich auf einem rund 56 Hektar großen Grundstück und ist benannt nach Emir Zayid bin Sultan Al Nahyan, einem Mitgründer und erstem Präsidenten der Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate, dessen Grab sich auf dem Gelände befindet. Das Innere der Moschee ist mit einem 5627 Quadratmeter großen, handgeknüpften Teppich aus dem Iran ausgelegt. Die Moschee schmücken zudem sieben Kronleuchter, die aus Deutschland importiert wurden. Sie bestehen aus vergoldetem Messing und Edelstahl und sind blumenförmig mit tausenden verschiedenenfarbigen Swarovski-Kristallen besetzt. Der größte der Kronleuchter hat einen Durchmesser von zehn Metern und 15 Metern Höhe. (Wikipedia)
The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque is located in Abu Dhabi. The largest mosque in the country, it is the key place of worship for daily, Friday and Eid prayers. During Eid, it may be visited by more than 41,000 people. The Grand Mosque was launched by the late president of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who wanted to establish a structure that would unite the cultural diversity of the Islamic world with the historical and modern values of architecture and art. His final resting place is located on the grounds adjacent to the complex. The mosque has many special and unique elements: The carpet in the main prayer hall is considered to be the world's largest carpet, made in Iran. The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque has seven imported chandeliers from Germany that incorporate millions of Swarovski crystals. The largest chandelier has a 10 m (33 ft) diameter and a 15 m (49 ft) height. (Wikipedia)

In this photo I tried to make use of a yellow filter to enhance the sky values in a black and white image. So I added a Cokin filter holder and Cokin light yellow filter. The effect is not as pronounced as I would have expected. Maybe I will have to go red next time.

Standing tall in divine grace, this is the magnificent bronze statue of Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy, at Kek Lok Si Temple in Penang, Malaysia. Rising over 30 meters high, she represents compassion, kindness, and love—values deeply cherished in Buddhist culture.
Kek Lok Si, Southeast Asia's largest Buddhist temple, has been a beacon of spirituality and cultural pride since the late 19th century. This awe-inspiring pavilion, completed in 2009, shelters the goddess with its intricately carved pillars and vibrant roof, symbolizing both strength and serenity.
A visit to Kek Lok Si is not only a spiritual journey but also a visual delight—where history, architecture, and faith come together in perfect harmony.
Tip for Visitors: The temple's hilltop location offers a stunning panoramic view of Penang, especially at sunset. Don’t miss this sacred masterpiece!
Experts believe that the modern-day hippo evolved in Africa around 8 million years ago. While they bear a resemblance to horses and pigs, these semi-aquatic mammals are in fact most closely related to whales, dolphins and porpoises – no wonder they’re so good at holding their breath underwater! These days there are only two types, the bog-standard hippopotamus and the smaller pygmy hippopotamus, but a few other now extinct species could be found across Europe and in Madagascar as little as 1,000 years ago. Hippos are now most common in countries such as Zambia and Tanzania.
In Africa hippo numbers are sadly declining. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) listed them as a vulnerable species in 2006 after establishing that the hippo population had declined by as much as 20% within the previous two decades. Drought has led to habitat loss, and the hunting and poaching of hippos, both for their meat and ivory teeth, is also a major threat.
Hippo Day reminds us to celebrate and value these mud-loving mammals, in the hope that they’ll be around for many more years to come.

The low winter sun highlights the dramatic Jurassic strata that form the cliffs at Dunraven bay, south Wales.
This area of coastline is a Site of Special Scientific Interest for its geological and biological value.
It also forms part of the larger 'Glamorgan Heritage coast', which is a 23km length of the coastline, of which Dunraven bay is near the western end.
Photomontage of Husum, Schleswig, on a summer's day in 2017. The basic named colours red, orange, yellow, yellow-green, green, cyan, blue, purple and magenta, each split in to two saturation levels and three darkness levels, making six shades in all of each named hue - plus three of grey and one each of white and black - you can only have one white and black. A saturation/darkness experiment, or saturation/value as in HSV. Some software says HSB, but brightness is really something different.
Wandiligong is a town in north-eastern Victoria in the alpine region around 330 kilometres from Melbourne. Established in the 1850s as part of the Victorian Gold Rush, Wandiligong became a hub for many gold miners, including a large Chinese community. At its peak, the town was home to over two thousand inhabitants and boasted shops, churches, a public library, halls and even an hotel. Much has changed since those heady days of the gold rush, and the picturesque town nestled in a valley and built around the Morses Creek, is now a sleepy little town full of picturesque houses which are often let to visitors to the area. The whole town is registered with the National Trust of Australia for its historic landscape and buildings of historic value.

Excerpt from uwaterloo.ca:
Description of the District
St. Clair Boulevard Heritage Conservation District runs along St. Clair Boulevard between Delaware Avenue and Cumberland Avenue. The district consists of 38 residential properties.
Cultural Heritage Value of the District
The Heritage Conservation District Planning Background Study and Plan discuss the value of the district:
“The St. Clair Park survey, registered in 1911, was one of a number of residential surveys laid out in Hamilton’s east end just after the turn of the century, a boom period for residential construction throughout the City. The St. Clair Park Survey formed part of a middle to upper class residential area comprising a number of surveys, which extended from King Street East to the foot of the escarpment and from Wentworth Street South to Gage Park.
As was common practice in Hamilton at the time, the St. Clair Park Survey has building restrictions in the form of restrictive covenants registered on deed to the lots. Restrictions on the cost, construction and setback of the house account to a large extent for the cohesive character of St. Clair Boulevard’s urban streetscape.
While the restrictive covenants associated with the St. Clair Park Survey has building restrictions on its social make-up, the social composition of St. Clair Boulevard was nevertheless very homogenous, comprising middle to upper-middle income families of Anglo-Saxon origins. In the course of its history the boulevard has attracted some of Hamilton’s most prominent citizens; notably, he well-known and highly-respected judge, William F Schwenger and the successful construction company manager, Ralph W. Cooper. The Boulevard is also noteworthy for its social stability, owning to the long-term residence of most of the homeowners and
continuous use of the houses as single-family dwellings”.
Designation of the District
The designation of St. Clair Boulevard was initiated by local residents following the designation of the adjacent St. Clair Avenue district. According to the Background Study and Plan, “a petition requesting designation of the area...signed by all 37 homeowners, was presented to LACAC at its December meeting
and was supported by this committee”.
The St. Clair Boulevard Heritage Conservation District is protected by By-law 92-140, passed in 1992.
The Isle of Skye is one of my favourite places in the world but prices for accommodation there have more than doubled even for the old, shabby hotels, without any increase in quality or value, sheer profiteering.
I cant afford to go there anymore so I am dredging through all my old shots.
The chances of good weather are very slim, most of my visits had really wet and windy weather which makes the high booking costs even harder to bear. Also, when the weather is fine you will be eaten alive by midges so invest in one of those wide-brimmed hats with the protective net hanging down.

Tram moments
Winter
I think I forgot to post this tram moment of self reflection. In any event, I ran across it again today and it made me pause...there is value in that. Over the last year of continuouse shooting I have learned that when something gives me pause, I should take a good look. There you go. My wisdom for the day.

There's something inherently sad about household objects left out for the trash man. They are like castoffs; broken or no longer cherished, and left ignominiously out on the curb. This easy chair caught my eye the other day. Part of the forlorn quality of scenes like this is the object being ripped from its normal context. I wouldn't give the chair a second look in someone's living room. But it seemed horribly out of place on the edge of the state highway that bisects the village. That, and the sedentary nature of a recliner juxtaposed against passing traffic. Wonderful visual metaphors for the life cycle of things we purchase and the passage of time (and with it life). In the eerie stillness after the truck passed I contemplated the chair and the many other personal objects scattered about the lawn behind me. There's a village-wide trash haul this weekend, and little collections such as this are springing up all around. I have to admit a weird impulse to inspect them, and yearn to pull over when driving by. I can't help but think I will find something of value (I almost never do) but also that idle curiosity about seeing the remnants of someone else's life (remember I did preface this as weird). I'll be placing some of my own items out on the curb soon. I tend to wait until the night before, perhaps to avoid having others inspect them as I did this chair. Even when it's sheer junk, I feel an odd sentimental tug about letting go of things. And that spell lasts as long as the objects remain on my tree lawn before the pickup. Much like this chair, they are in the condemned phase, but still retrievable. I can simply go back out and reclaim them. That sentiment vanishes the moment the objects are tossed onto the truck. Maybe that's why I wait until the last minute to put them out. I just can't stand that in between time.

Please feel free to give some feedback by visiting the 'About' page on this site and leaving a testimonial. Your words are much valued by me and I'm open to hearing what YOU think.
Take a moment from time to time to remember that you are alive.
I know this sounds a trifle obvious, but it is amazing how little time
we take to remark upon this singular and gratifying fact.
By the most astounding stroke of luck an infinitesimal portion
of all the matter in the universe came together to create you
and for the tiniest moment in the great span of eternity
you have the incomparable privilege to exist ...

The very instant you collect your mail, see the automatic black ink stamp that says 'Postage Paid' .... cellophane window in which you see your name ........ you just know it is not from a girlfriend. Power rates, truck rego, Council Rates. You would at least think that the Council would pay us TGirls, not charge. After all, we are value added and embellish the diversity of the multi-cultural societies in which we live. Unfortunately, they will not listen to me nor take me seriously. I wonder why?
LA FIAMMELLA CHE SCALDA L'ANIMA.
Il voto religioso consiste in una promessa solennemente formulata, che si basa sul tenere un certo comportamento o meno a favore della divinità.
Una promessa permette l’instaurarsi di un rapporto intimo tra il fedele e la divinità. Accendere una luce in segno di questo legame è consuetudine oramai entrata nella pratica di moltissime professioni di fede.
Nella religione cristiana il voto è un atto di culto a Dio, è l’espressione della volontà umana di far ingresso nel mondo spirituale. Questo ingresso è generalmente accompagnato dall’accensione di una luce.
La candela utilizzata in campo ecclesiale ha una forte valenza simbolica, essa indica la fusione, il punto d’incontro tra la materia e lo spirito. Non è un caso che nella maggioranza delle chiese cristiane lumini e piccoli ceri, (oltre alle candele utilizzate sull’altare, di fronte al santissimo o nelle sacre celebrazioni, che appartengono alle espressioni ufficiali), facciano luce ai piedi delle statue dei santi o di fronte alle espressioni marmoree di Maria e Gesù. Accendere una candela di fronte ad un’ immagine sacra è un pò come dire “io ci sono”, “io ti sto parlando”, “io ti sono devoto”.
------------------------------------------
THE FLAME THAT WARM THE SOUL.
The religious vow consists of a solemnly formulated promise, which is based on having a certain behavior or not in favor of the divinity.
A promise allows the establishment of an intimate relationship between the faithful and the divinity. Turning on a light as a sign of this bond is now customary in the practice of many professions of faith.
In the Christian religion, the vow is an act of worship to God, it is the expression of the human will to enter the spiritual world. This entrance is generally accompanied by the switching on of a light.
The candle used in the ecclesial field has a strong symbolic value, it indicates the fusion, the meeting point between matter and spirit. It is no coincidence that in the majority of Christian churches, small candles and candles, (in addition to the candles used on the altar, in front of the most holy or in sacred celebrations, which belong to official expressions), shed light at the feet of the statues of the saints or of facing the marble expressions of Mary and Jesus. Lighting a candle in front of a sacred image is a bit like saying "I am here", "I am talking to you", "I am devoted to you".
