In the shade of the Tour Eiffel directly under the tower I saw this happy family and the play of light and shadow

We used today to dive into the history of the Danish West Coast visiting the Tirpitz Museum in Blavand as well as the open air museum of Nymindegab. I can highly recommend both locations for people who love to learn more about the life of our ancestors in previous centuries. Nymindegab, Jylland, Denmark

...Crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see... ("Dust in The Wind", Kansas)

--

The mighty Earls of Bogen had built this castle in the 12th century. Then the family died out and so the castle was given to the not less mighty family of Deggenberger... and they died out, too... and all what left of those proud Houses is this ruine... Sic transit gloria mundi.

--

Looking at the ruines like this I often remember a beautiful and sad poem by J.R.R.Tolkien "Lament For Eorl The Young":

Where now is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing?

Where is the helm and the hauberk, and the bright hair flowing?

Where is the hand on the harpstring, and the red fire glowing?

They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow;

The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.

Who shall gather the smoke of the deadwood burning,

Or behold the flowing years from the Sea returning?

 

In the movie, Eovin sings this lament during the funieral of Theodored's son.

We are approaching the Ende of the year 2020. Full steam ahead we are driving the finishing straight. I'm going to use this moment to thank all of You, for Your interest and for Your appreciative words during this year. But most of all I want to thank You for the time You did spend with my photographs. Time is the most valuable what we all own and I treasure any second You are giving to me. I wish all of You a good crossover to the next year and a healthy 2021.

 

Wir nähern uns dem Ende des Jahres 2020. Mit Volldampf geht es über die Zielgerade. Ich nutze diesen Moment um mich bei allen von Euch für euer Interesse und eure wertschätzenden Worte während dieses Jahres zu bedanken. Doch am meisten Danke ich Euch für die Zeit, die Ihr mit meinen Bilder verbracht habt. Zeit ist das wertvollste Gut, was wir alle besitzen und ich weiß jede Sekunde zu schätzen, die Ihr mir schenkt. Ich wünsche Euch allen einen guten Übergang ins nächste Jahr und ein gesundes 2021.

Originally titled "Wir schlafen nicht" (in German) this book by the author Kathrin Röggla wasn't very memorable for me. Still I can appreciate what she tried to do in her book and the title inspired me to create this image.

Inside dimension lies another sacrifice

Once out of reach, we never speak, we never compromise

Left in these passions I looked but never learned

There's hope, you've heard there's life in another world

Sometimes you'll find that truth is never kind..."

Locally, Telus is one of the largest telephone/communications companies. Their new building is the Telus Sky Tower and just opened for business. Their advertising stresses how unique they are and how very different each and every customer is treated. Somehow the side of their new building reflects a somewhat different perspective.

We are visiting Vietnam this week. For the Thanksgiving day, we took a day trip from Hanoi to Ninh Binh, where it is considered as Ha Long Bay on land. The weather was wet and miserable but we were able to climb the 500 steps to the mountain top of Hang Mua. The view from there was well worth our efforts. If you zoom in on the steps, you might be able to see a few other souls braving the rain and wind also.

And when I’m tired of feeling black spread the wings upon your back. Take us high above it all, stroke your feathers until we fall back down again.”>🎶 Audioslave🎶

Me…..: “You will not get any…”

We planted this very small bush in Spring after being advised by the local nursery that it would eventually flower and the bush would grow. It's ideally suited to heat and little water. We've waited all summer for the flowers to appear but the other day they eventually showed themselves. They're tiny. These flowers are about 1-2cm. They're not big show offs like other flowers but they have a very delicate beauty about them which I had to photograph and give them their 15 minutes in the sun! Unfortunately, I have no idea of their name

Australasian Grebe (Tachybaptus novaehollandiae)

 

I popped down to the Vic Uni Pond today to see what the Grebes were doing. When I arrived this one, possibly female (they both incubate the eggs) was rearranging the nest - covering the eggs while it went for a swim and had something to eat. It then returned and uncovered the eggs and settled down. We know they mated last Thursday - David www.flickr.com/photos/birdsaspoetry/ got a photo.

With an incubation period of 21-23 days we should see some chicks in two - three weeks.

We call this glitter. It's a nice way of saying freezing rain. A pretty name to soften the blow maybe? Who needs spring anyways!?

 

This is day two of glitter and I'm patiently waiting for the sun. Nothing is quite as wonderful as sun-shiny, sparkly ice. The wait continues....the sun has to come out eventually, right?

We can never give up

We could try one more time,

Telling yourself that the past doesn't count,

Can we free ourselves, just forget that we are there,

Freeze time, live in the present and enjoy just once

We could.
