After the sunset with a clear sky over the mountains and the purple hues tinge the clouds covering the lowlands to the right, this is my favourite panorama to date! This is the picture I have been holding back for! www.glensumnerphotography.com

In winter, the rice terraces are free from plants, so that the light often reflected in various colors of the sky. When we arrived at the viewpoint pulled fog over the rice fields, but towards the afternoon (as in the picture) the fog lifted .

I think it is a hard work to plant all this fields with rice. With machines may not be working there. The non- water-filled terraces are usually planted with potatoes .

 

Im Winter sind die Reisterrassen frei von Pflanzen, so dass sich das Licht oft in verschiedenen Farben des Himmels spiegelt. Als wir am Aussichtspunkt ankamen zog Nebel über die Reisfelder, der sich aber zum Nachmittag hin (wie auf dem Bild) lichtete.

Ich denke, es ist ein hartes Stück Arbeit, die vielen Felder mit Reis zu bepflanzen. Mit Maschinen geht dort überhaupt nichts. Die nicht mit Wasser gefüllten Terrassen werden meist mit Kartoffeln bepflanzt.

En estos dias de enclaustramiento hay que tirar de archivo, asi que hay os dejo una foto antigua.

 

Un poco de historia.

 

A lo largo de una carrera que abarcó casi siete décadas, Louise Bourgeois creó un corpus de obra rico y siempre innovador que se entrecruzó con algunos de los principales movimientos vanguardistas del siglo XX, como el Surrealismo, el Expresionismo Abstracto y el Posminimalismo, sin renunciar a su propia visión creativa. Aunque la obra de Bourgeois abarca la pintura, el dibujo, el grabado y la performance, la artista es más conocida por sus esculturas, ya sean íntimas o monumentales, en las que empleó diversos materiales, como la madera, el bronce, el látex, el mármol y el tejido. Su obra es muy personal, con frecuentes referencias a una dolorosa infancia marcada por un padre infiel y una madre cariñosa pero cómplice de la situación, y al mismo tiempo tiene un carácter universal, ya que encara el reto agridulce de ser un ser humano.

 

Mamá (Maman), de casi 9 metros de altura, es una de las esculturas más ambiciosas de Bourgeois y pertenece a una serie inspirada en la araña, motivo que apareció por primera vez en varios dibujos realizados por la artista en la década de 1940 y ocupó un lugar central en su obra durante la década de 1990. Las arañas, que Bourgeois presenta como un homenaje a su madre, que era tejedora, ponen de manifiesto la duplicidad de la naturaleza de la maternidad: la madre es protectora y depredadora al mismo tiempo. La araña utiliza la seda tanto para fabricar el capullo como para cazar a su presa, así que la maternidad encarna fortaleza y fragilidad. Estas ambigüedades se ven intensamente reflejadas en esta Mamá gigantesca, que se sostiene ominosamente sobre unas patas que semejan arcos góticos y que funcionan al mismo tiempo como jaula y como guarida protectora de una bolsa llena de huevos que se encuentran peligrosamente adheridos a su abdomen. La araña provoca pavor y miedo pero su gran altura, sorprendentemente equilibrada sobre unas ligeras patas, transmite una vulnerabilidad casi conmovedora.

ONE BIG THANK YOU FOR YOUR(YOURS) VISIT AS WELL AS FOR YOUR COMMENTS AND FAV

 

"Wonders Of Winter"

Would have liked the coot closer to the camera but also didn't want to lose the lovely pond surroundings & the reflections by focusing in too close so the coot had to stay distant:)

 

Enjoy a lovely weekend everyone & for those of you struggling with the heat, stay as cool as this coot!

A sculpture of 15 wild horses has crowned a barren Central Washington hillside for more nearly two decades, but the rusted sheets of steel still are an inspiring sight to travelers along busy I- 90.

The 200-foot line of life-size charging horses, the creation of David Govedare of Chewelah, Wash., captures a mystical spirit from a time when real wild horses roamed the steppes.

Titled "Grandfather Cuts Loose the Ponies," the scene symbolically re-creates the Great Spirit turning loose a herd of wild horses above the Columbia River's Wanapum Lake.

Belvédère depuis La Chambotte (Savoie).

Le lac du Bourget est un lac situé en France à l'ouest du département de la Savoie. Lac post-glaciaire du massif du Jura, le lac du Bourget a été formé à l'issue de la dernière glaciation de Würm, il y a environ 19 000 ans, par le retrait du grand glacier alpin du quaternaire.

 

Viewpoint from La Chambotte (Savoie).

Lac du Bourget is a lake located in France in the west of the Savoie department. A post-glacial lake in the Jura massif, Lac du Bourget was formed at the end of the last Würm glaciation, about 19,000 years ago, by the retreat of the great Alpine glacier of the Quaternary period.

Feliz martes de nubes para todos y todas.

Taken at Fifty Point Conservation Area. We waited for the sun to peek out from the clouds and shine on the groynes.

The Ponta da Piedade (Mercy Point) is possibly the most beautiful natural feature of the Algarve coastline.

 

The shoreline is formed of heavily weathered limestone cliffs that have been carved into rock pillars, natural tunnels and hidden grottoes. The sandstone cliffs of misshaped angles stand at stark contrast to the deep turquoises and greens of the calm seas.
