When it was established sixty years ago, the Xingu Indigenous Park, larger than Israel, was surrounded only by rudimentary cattle raising, but now it is surrounded by intensive, pesticide-dependent farming.

When springtime comes we're bustin' out of this joint. For now we stay put and keep a low profile...
When you hear sweet syncopation
And the music softly moans
T'ain't no sin to take off your skin
And dance around in your bones
When it gets too hot for comfot
And you can't get an ice cream cone
T'ain't no sin to take off your skin
And dance around your bones
Just like those bamboo babies
Down in the South Sea tropic zone
T'ain't no sin to take off your skin
And dance around your bones
When the fog started to clear I headed down to the bay and soon realised that there wasn't going to be much of a sunset so it was out with the big stopper while there was still a little bit of light catching some of the famous rock ledges and then wait for dark..... to be continued
A frame from 2020, when ordinary life came to a halt. Eve and her dog Rada stand by the window, gazing at the unreachable outside. The suitcases behind the glass symbolize canceled journeys, missed encounters, and frozen plans. In their gaze lies a child’s longing for simple joys, reflecting what the whole world was going through. A photograph about silence, waiting, and hope.

Кадр из 2020 года, когда привычная жизнь остановилась. Ева и её собака Рада стоят у окна, всматриваясь в улицу, которая осталась недосягаемой. Чемоданы за стеклом - символ несбывшихся поездок, несостоявшихся встреч и замороженных планов. В этом взгляде на мир - детская тоска по простым радостям и отражение того, что переживал каждый. Фотография о тишине, ожидании и надежде.
Not until the creator of this exquisite doily (flickr friend and contact, Terry Sprague) explained the fact I had posted the "wrong" side (see below), was I even aware that this was crocheted . . . I couldn't rest until I posted both sides of the "same" masterpiece . . . I think I'm still partial to the backside . . . because I love the raised effects of the pointed zigzag stitched lines just inside the border!
Please click on more gorgeous works from this Maine artist extraordinaire . . . her skills are beyond description . . . from soup to nuts inside her kitchen, to the photographs she shares of her simple, humble, beautiful life on her beloved island.

Thanks again, Dear Terry, for all you share on line and via the trusty old USPS! SOME day I've just gotta meet your mail lady who delivers via boat . . . not to mention, taking the ferry over to finally meet you in person!
When we were in Meaford, Ontario in Nov 2010, we took a walk to the Marina and the Canadian Coast Guard have all their boats in Dry Dock for the Winter..............
When the weather is clear there are fine views from the Mirador del Rio. When it is not clear it is perhaps more interesting.
I have this image in my mind when I close my eyes.. this helps ease my stress, burdens and circumstances.
The diagrams of my little pig were published in The Fold: origamiusa.org/thefold/article/diagrams-yaras-pig
A sincere thanks to Patsy Wang-Iverson for publishing it, to Halle and Ramón Thomas for the beautiful diagrams and symbols, and to dear Rui Roda for the testfold.
Muito obrigada!

The Carriage House was built around 1831-1832 and, as a stage coach stop between Red Bank and western Monmouth county, it was the first building people would come to when arriving by coach. Inside the building, we have some examples of early carriages from the later 1800’s. The Gardner’s Cottage was attached at the back of the carriage house as the gardener also worked in the winter months with the transportation of goods to and from the village.

....out to walk our dog,i get an funny idea to see what he see.I get a little
stupid feeling when lay on my stomach in the middle of the snow,but this is the result!
Well you can not visit Rome and not shoot the icons. Not sure there are many ways to find originality with well known locations that have been photographed for 150 years or so! A bright day, so went for the stark, bleached out look.
When I first discovered this American White Pelican when I arrived at Iona it was hanging out in relatively shallow water with some Canada Geese. It was preening and sorting out its feathers. At different times it would stop and sort of nap with one eye open. Later when the tide came in more it did some paddling about mostly randomly at first. At one point it took to the air after most of its companions had moved on.
....When they are alone they want to be with others, and when they are with others they want to be alone....
Instruments being silent can take the ambiance right out of a room. Either a guitar, piano, flute, banjo or what have you, when played they warm a room up. That’s not to say the player needs be a professional. I think most people would be happy to be able to play for their own amusement. Playing for your own pleasure is most likely the reason a lot of us ever picked up an instrument in the first place. You may never be a rock star or concert pianist. That’s not a good enough reason not to pick up an instrument, play around and dream. Thanks for viewing my work. Gratitude and Kindness can pave the way for a happier journey.
May 09, 2016 - Theme for the week: "When I was a Child..."
In the 70's as a child I liked to get these cool stickers (at least they were cool back then), and stick them to my bedroom's closet door!
Most the stickers were from the "Odd Rods" and "Wacky Packages" series collections!
This is a capture taken on my new Huawei Mate 8 cell phone, of the actual bedroom door and stickers I put on it over forty years ago - YIKES !!!!!
All of them certainly didn't stand the test of time, but it sure brings back great memories from my past whenever I look at that door . . .
When I took the boat which advanced while breaking ice, I found this bird near. on that day because I had only 50mm, I approached a little more . When I pressed the shutter, my memory card was full.
On January 12, 2014 in Shakujii park.

氷を割りながら進んでいくボートを撮っていた時、ぼくは近くでこの鳥を見つけました。この日僕は50mmしか持っていなかったので、もう少し近づいてみました。 シャッターを切った時、僕のメモリーカードは満杯でした。
2014年1月12日、石神井公園にて。
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang
Sonnet 73 ~ William Shakespeare
When I was a teenager, I found out that the German word for 'goblin' is 'kobold'. I really like the sound of the word 'kobold', and when I saw that there was a plant with that name I has to have one in the garden. Fortunately it does OK, producing about six flowers. They are tall stems with lengthy flowerson; this is taken looking straight down at one of them.

Another of the falls near Pontneddfechan. These rocks are obviously sometimes covered with water - I had to tread very carefully to get to this point, they were very slippery!
While taking this shot, I was considering that the goal at the top of the wall might be weak. It should be something more compelling then a chocolate bar. While discussing this with my daughter I asked, "who would scale a wall for a chocolate?" She replied "Well, I definitely would" So chocolate it remained.

And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee; And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee. And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom. And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.
And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist. And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her. And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother. And when his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb. (Mark 6:21-29, KJV)
