Why, why can't this moment last forevermore?

Tonight, tonight eternity's an open door

No, don't ever stop doing the things you do

Don't go, in every breath I take I'm breathing you

 

Euphoria

Forever, 'till the end of time

From now on, only you and I

We're going up-up-up-up-up-up-up

Euphoria

An everlasting piece of art

A beating love within my heart

We're going up-up-up-up-up-up-up

 

We are here, we're all alone in our own Universe

We are free, where everything's allowed and love comes first

Forever and ever together, we sail into infinity

We're higher and higher and higher, we're reaching for divinity

 

Euphoria

Forever, 'till the end of time

From now on, only you and I

We're going up-up-up-up-up-up-up

Euphoria

An everlasting piece of art

A beating love within my heart

We're going up-up-up-up-up-up-up

 

Forever we sail into infinity

We're higher, we're reaching for divinity

 

Euphoria, euphoria

We're going up-up-up-up-up-up-up

Euphoria

An everlasting piece of art

A beating love within my heart

We're going up-up-up-up-up-up-up

Euphoria, euphoria

We're going up-up-up-up-up-up-up...

The simplest things can wake a creative mind. The most complicated things can destroy it. Open your mind to golden opportunities and remember so share with others the good you can.

“Public spaces have been essential to my work for many years, because they have this tremendous capacity to connect people not only with art, but also with the great architecture that surrounds it, and with one another,” said Jaume Plensa. “When Stephen Ross asked me to create a new, large-scale sculpture for the lobby of 30 Hudson Yards, I said yes immediately. The eleven spheres that make up Voices are composed of letters from eight different alphabets, to inspire people with the idea that while we come from many places and many cultures, we are here as one community.”

They very rarely breed their and

you'd be very very lucky to see one., neither of us ever have

 

But If we did it'd most likely be in the winter., thus the name... Ice Bird

 

How lucky we are here in the UK

Saying that for all the obvious reasons we've not exactly had a 'sack-full' of photo's this year!

   

Heritage Days in September are an opportunity to discover or rediscover interesting places steeped in history.

For myself, I revisited the downtown of Mâcon. We are here in front of the Montrevel hotel, built in the 18th century. The building became the city hall of Mâcon during the French Revolution.

Les Journées du Patrimoine courant septembre sont l'occasion de découvrir ou de redécouvrir des lieux intéressants chargés d'histoire.

J'ai pour ma part revisité le centre-ville de Mâcon. Nous sommes ici devant l'hôtel Montrevel, bâti au 18ème siècle. L'édifice est devenu la mairie de Mâcon pendant la Révolution française.

A silent faulty feeling

A silent fault

A silent faulty feeling

A silent fault

 

I sigh and fall to the ceiling

I sigh and run to the kneeling

Asylums for the feeling

 

Ran out of all the meaning

I ran out of

It's hard to fall believing

It's hard to fall

 

So many men are losing

While out there doing the proving

It's no surprise he is dooming

 

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Oh, don't suck it up, no

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Oh, don't suck it up, no

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Oh, don't suck it up, no

 

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Oh, don't suck it up, no

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Oh, don't suck it up, no

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Bring your friends, bring it all on

Oh, don't suck it up, no

  

We seem to need another

We need you all

While finding our own cover

We cover it all

 

I find my own completeness

The darkness and the weakness

The light, the fight, the quietness

 

We are here for you

We are here for you

Don't suffer alone

Tell us

 

We are here for you

We are here for you

Don't suffer alone

Tell us

View from the Zugspitze. The b/w conversion reminded me that these mountains are here for 1.000s of years... aeons... and they will be still here when humanity is long gone... Good for our planet but still great we are here and able to capture the beauty of nature and enjoy it as long we can :)

A slight change of position, crop and exposure time to a previous shot from the same trip. I love how you can slow down time in photography and smudge moments.

 

The title is a line from this poem:

 

Dover Beach

BY MATTHEW ARNOLD

The sea is calm tonight.

The tide is full, the moon lies fair

Upon the straits; on the French coast the light

Gleams and is gone; the cliffs of England stand,

Glimmering and vast, out in the tranquil bay.

Come to the window, sweet is the night-air!

Only, from the long line of spray

Where the sea meets the moon-blanched land,

Listen! you hear the grating roar

Of pebbles which the waves draw back, and fling,

At their return, up the high strand,

Begin, and cease, and then again begin,

With tremulous cadence slow, and bring

The eternal note of sadness in.

 

Sophocles long ago

Heard it on the Ægean, and it brought

Into his mind the turbid ebb and flow

Of human misery; we

Find also in the sound a thought,

Hearing it by this distant northern sea.

 

The Sea of Faith

Was once, too, at the full, and round earth’s shore

Lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled.

But now I only hear

Its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar,

Retreating, to the breath

Of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear

And naked shingles of the world.

 

Ah, love, let us be true

To one another! for the world, which seems

To lie before us like a land of dreams,

So various, so beautiful, so new,

Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,

Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;

And we are here as on a darkling plain

Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,

Where ignorant armies clash by night.

"We are here

to laugh at the odds

and live our lives

so well

that death will tremble

to take us."

 

Charles Bukowski

have a nice Sunday and a good start in the new week!

Lonely Looking

 

Lonely looking sky

And bein' lonely

Makes you wonder why

Lonely looking sky

Lonely looking night, lonely night,

Lonely looking night

And bein' lonely

Never made it right

Never made it right

Lonely looking night

Sleep, we sleep

For we may dream

While we may

Dream we dream

For we may wake

One more day, one more day......................

So we are here today at a secret jungle location near the Mary Booth Reserve at Kirribilli - but actually beneath the reserve right on the harbour where the giant Port Jackson figtrees cling to the rocks, along with photographers who also have to cling to rocks.

 

It's a new frontier. Viewing Sydney through the jungle-like branches and leaves of the giant figtrees here at Kirribilli.

 

And so here is Donald Fagen with 'New Frontier' from his album 'The Nightfly':

Are you also snowed in, as we are here in Bavaria?

We are here in the haunted house "la Villa des Tilleuls". Many owners have come and gone, without ever living in this house. We would hear the night of the noises of chaines, coming from the basement. We can see cabalistic signs engraved in the entrance and the outer wall of the property has the shape of a coffin !! The village elders dont want to enter it. Before going there, I did'nt know this "legend" (?), off course !!

Rise. A friend of mine has given me sage advice to keep moving forward, not backward. To just be me. I owe only myself, and I will continue to give to that girl.

 

Loved playing with a darker image to get my face lit. Afterall we all have energy and light inside!

  

Though we've not reached the end

We should take some time apart

Leave here with no regrets

Knowing we gave our all

Oh, I cannot pretend

That this won't break our hearts

But we will meet again

I know the order's tall

But we could be so much more

Out of the embers, we'll rise from the ashes

Write in the stars with our names

That we are here, we are bruised, we are damaged

But the joy was worth the pain

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, love's a beautiful game

Oh, what a state we're in

But the war is far from won

Yeah, we did everything

Anyone could have done

We'll pick the pieces up

Put it together, we pray and hope it works

They say it's in the blood

And I know the order's tall

But we could be so much more

out of the embers, we'll rise from the ashes

And write in the stars with our names

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh) that we are here, we are bruised, we are damaged

But the joy was worth the pain

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, love's a beautiful game

a beautiful game

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh) a beautiful game (it's just a beautiful game)

a beautiful game

Out of the embers, we'll rise from the ashes

And write in the stars with our names

That we are here, we are bruised, we are damaged

But the joy was worth the pain

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, love's a beautiful game

 

Life doesn't come with guarantees and one day we are here another one we are gone. Just know that smiling will brighten your face, laughter will brighten your day, and good people will make your life great... and be safe!

Two of my outdoor kittens who 'adopted' me and my backyard. This photo was taken through the door window. They are semi-wild and do not stay around when I open the door for me to take better pictures of them.

Now you have seen what it looked like above and below the fog when I was hiking near Děčín in Bohemian Switzerland a few days ago.

Now the only question is, what does it look like in the fog? To find out, I followed my instincts and followed a path up the edge of the valley, which led me into a magical and fascinating world.

Where the fog has roamed the forests throughout the frosty night, it has covered all the trees and bushes with a thin layer of ice, giving the forest an almost unreal appearance. My first thought when I saw this was of a negative of a photo.

We are here at the lower limit of this area. The higher I got, the further I penetrated into the fog, the more intense this effect became. What you will also see in the following pictures.

 

Jetzt habt Ihr gesehen, wie es oberhalb und unterhalb des Nebel ausgesehen hat, als ich vor wenigen Tagen in der Nähe von Děčín in der böhmischen Schweiz unterwegs war.

Nun stellt sich nur noch die Frage, wie sieht es dann im Nebel aus ? Um dies herauszufinden bin ich, meinem Gefühl folgend, am Rande des Tals einem Pfad nach oben gefolgt, der mich in eine magische und faszinierende Welt geführt hat.

Dort, wo der Nebel die ganze frostige Nacht die Wälder durchstreift hat, hat er alle Bäume und Sträucher mit einer dünnen Eisschicht überzogen, was dem Wald ein fast unwirkliches Aussehen verliehen hat. Mein erster Gedanke, als ich das gesehen habe war der an das Negativ eines Fotos.

Wir befinden uns hier an der unteren Grenze von diesem Bereich. Je höher ich kam, je weiter ich in den Nebel vordrang, um so intensiver wurde dieser Effekt. Was Ihr in den noch folgenden Bildern auch sehen werdet.

I do have a carol in my heart for all my Flickr friends! We are here for each other as inspiration and support! Thank you for the past years and looking into the new one! Peace my dear friends and joy in 2015.

i've come to know and share with this community many events and happenings

i've come to cherish, enjoy and learn from all of you as well

i know that we all intersect in time space and event

i know that though we all are different and from many lands

we share one common bond.

we all live on planet earth.

enjoy the colors, the sunrise and sunsets and all that it offers

enjoy your life for tomorrow we may never meet again

know that while we may not agree or want to agree

we can agree on one thing. today we are here.

tomorrow is only promised to the living.

In the words of Baba Ram Dass, Be Here Now.

except to feed my daughter's cats.

She is in Glasgow in the pouring rain and we are here in the pouring rain.

But two years ago August looked like this.

Just don’t expect me

To come back from this

In one piece

It’s alright for you

To suggest I live and let live

But how do I know I will survive it

Sounds more like a devil’s bargain

I could be trapped forever

In your unrelenting grip

Condemned to wander up and down

This stretch of road

Cheated on a whim

For eternal life

But now all alone

Left with just a view

And a bitter wit

To see how far I can spit

My angry words

Into the frigid air without a care

In a display of petulance

Like a dare

This third work in the Landsong Series as I now read it again expresses those anxieties that I was anticipating at that time of the covid pandemic; how do we survive it? How do we carry on?

 

And now we are here post covid, how do we interact with each other?

 

The world has raced on in a sort of panic, desperate to restore sanity.

 

I would venture there has not been enough time to recover. People need to take some time to be a human being again, one that is allowed to explore those mix of emotions that have put us in survival mode. We need to rediscover those connections that mean so much to us, and those elements that make us similar and those that make us different. We need to understand what and who we are, and how we want to go forward, and not be forced into it.

 

Time is priceless. You cannot get it back.

 

U2’s track “Bad” from the album “The Unforgettable Fire” was the only choice that really stood out to be paired with this work. There is a desperate beauty to it, that fitted so well with what I was trying to say, to give voice to the visions I was having where we all lost our humanity. This track is a live version, from the 1984 concert at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham in the UK, and Bono’s voice just tears at your soul.

This work along with the rest of the series [and those yet to be added], are also available on my website with a new introduction and a viewing experience that is closer to the designed pages I print out for my own personal collection. If you wish, follow this link for a look:

Past from few days i have been thinking about life a lot n i realized one fact that to be alone gives you a lot of peace n gives you a lot of space to think about ur self. i think its the stage of my life where i can stand alone, but still be happy.

attachment was what spoiling my peace all the time.now i have slowly started to be on my own n not to be attached to any one...n i shud say i am really happy guys :)

 

so i want to dedicate this picture to all those who are standing alone to achieve some thing, to be one with the self n to realize there own self.

 

And guys please dont comment on my pictures for the heck of commenting [don worry i would still comment on ur picture :)....]

and don comment if u don mean it and plzzzzz don use ur templates to comment on my pictures.i feel we are here to share our thoughts through our pictures n not to make others to comment on our pictures. any comments and critiques are much appreciated

i am still a beginner so please feel free to express ur Thoughts.

 

Have a wonderful week ahead!!!

 

Thank you all !

True belonging is not passive. It's not the belonging that comes with just joining a group. It's not fitting in or pretending or selling out because it's safer. It's a practice that requires us to be vulnerable, get uncomfortable, and learn how to be present with people without sacrificing who we are.

Dr. Brené Brown

 

Belongingness entails an unwavering commitment to not simply tolerating and respecting difference, but to ensuring that all people are welcome and feel that they belong.

John A. Powell

 

Today, if we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.

Mother Theresa, Saint Teresa of Calcutta

 

The most important thing in all human relationships is conversation, but people don't talk anymore, they don't sit down to talk and listen. They go to the cinema, watch television, listen to the radio, read books, update their status on the internet, but they almost never talk. If we want to change the world, we have to go back to a time when warriors would gather around a fire and tell stories

Paulo Coelho

 

We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It's easy to say, ‘It's not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.’ Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes.

Fred Rogers

 

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

Winston Churchill

 

When we choose to wonder about people we don’t know, when we imagine their lives and listen for their stories, we begin to expand the circle of those we see as part of us.

Valarie Kaur

 

We must remain hopeful that a universal ethic of courage, caring, sharing, respect, radical compassion, and love will make a difference. We can never be too generous or too kind.

Marc Bekoff

 

I believe that we are here for each other, not against each other. Everything comes from an understanding that you are a gift in my life — whoever you are, whatever our differences.

John Denver

 

With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, and stay safe! ❤️❤️❤️
