Meilleurs voeux 2012

J' ai choisi ce bateau
Pour naviguer sur les flots
Les flots de l' Amitié
En cette nouvelle année

Des photographies fantastiques
Dans nos filets magnifiques
Comme une étincelle
Notre route sera belle

Hallstatt, Austria

nobody@flickr.com (xiaomeisun ( I am back online ☺)) — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 00:24:42 -0700

xiaomeisun ( I am back online ☺) has added a photo to the pool:

Hallstatt is a small village in the Salzkammergut, Austria. It is an unbelievably spectacular place and possibly the most picturesque Austrian village.
For this shot, I had been waiting by the lake for long time until a small boat was passing by and generated a slightly distorted reflection of the church tower on the water. I thought it is very special and different from so many photos taken from this spot.

As always, thanks for stopping by and viewing, I appreciate your comments, visits and invitations.

Lynda Murtha~ has added a photo to the pool:

The Sumachs are really putting on a show this year. Indian Summer is painting magnificent colours along the lake and as I processed this image, an old poem by William Wilfred Campbell drifting into my mind.

Indian Summer

Along the line of smoky hills the crimson forest stands,
And all the day the blue-jay calls
Throughout the autumn lands.

Now by the brook the maple leans
With all his glory spread,
And all the sumachs on the hills
Have turned their green to red.

Now by great marshes wrapt in mist,
Or past some river's mouth,
Throughout the long, still autumn day
Wild birds are flying south

St. Peter Church in Tamandaré - Pernambuco - Brazil.
The construction dates XIX century.

Igreja de São Pedro.
Está localizada à beira mar, entre casas de veraneio, na Praia das Campas. Sua construção, com arquitetura barroca, data do século XIX. Possui uma torre sineira e uma escadaria frontal que leva direto às areias da praia. Quando a maré sobe o acesso só é possível pelos fundos da igreja, pois o mar invade suas escadas. Há poucos anos foi restaurada, mas as missas só acontecem em ocasiões especiais. É muito requisitada para casamentos, que quando realizados em noite de lua cheia costumam deixar os convidados encantados já na chegada à igreja.

Vem kan segla förutan vind?

Jag kan segla förutan vind,
jag kan ro utan åror,
men ej skiljas från vännen min
utan att fälla tårar.

Who can sail without the wind?
Who can row without an oar?
Who can leave behind a friend,
Without just one tear to pour?

I can sail without the wind,
I can row without an oar,
But I cannot leave a friend,
Without just one tear to pour.

I think this must be the classic shot everyone tries to get when in Venice ~ from the Rialto Bridge which spans the Grand Canal.

The first night in Venice I was so sleep deprived that I could hardly function, much less navigate settings on my camera or even set up my tripod. I had a small melt-down. . .

PaintedWorksByKB has added a photo to the pool:

It had rained that morning ~ there was a nice shine on the pavers. I caught this gentleman ahead of me walking towards the Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta which sits above the beach.

Camogli is a small, charming fishing village on the peninsula of Portofino in the province of Genoa.

Camogli means "house of wives". In the late Middle Ages it was a considerable seaport with a fleet of hundreds of ships, and was then called "the city of a thousand sails". Today, Camogli has a population of approximately 5,000.

It was a most fabulous trip, but it is good to be home. I am WAY behind in almost everything, but I will get around to you all very soon. . .

SALTEE ISLAND VISTA.

nobody@flickr.com (Edward Dullard Photography. Kilkenny, Ireland.) — Sun, 15 May 2011 16:30:13 -0700

Edward Dullard Photography. Kilkenny, Ireland. has added a photo to the pool:

The Saltee Islands, consisting of the Great and Little Saltee, St. Georges Channel are situated approximately 5 kilometres off the coast of Kilmore Quay Co.Wexford. The larger island Great Saltee is the most famous bird sanctuary in Ireland and is very popular with both day-trippers and birdwatchers. These Islands are privately owned and are one of the world's major bird sanctuaries.

The Saltees are a haven for sea birds, nurturing an impressive array of birds, from Gannets and Gulls to Puffins and Manx Shearwaters. They also lie on an important migratory route and a popular stopping-off place for spring and autumn migrants. The Great Saltee also has a breeding population of Grey Seals, one of the very few in eastern Ireland. Up to 120 animals are present in autumn and up to 20 pups are produced annually.

These Islands are among the ancient islands of Europe, based on Pre-Cambrian bedrock i.e. between 600 and 2000 million years old. There is archaeological evidence that Neolithic man settled there, and traces of religious settlements exist. There is also evidence of buccaneering and smuggling. A flourishing period in the history of the islands was from about 1500 - 1800 when they were a base for pirates, wreckers and smugglers. The gains of the wreckers and smugglers could very well be hidden in the many caves which have mysterious and romantic names - Lady Walker's Cave, Happy Hole, Otter's Cave and Hell Hole, enough for any Treasure Island. These and other caves can be clearly seen on The Great Saltee Map (Information Page).

The waters around the islands can be treacherous, hence the area is know as the "Graveyard of a Thousand Ships" and the islands their tombstones.

One of the most spectacular sights on the Saltees in mid-Summer are the sea birds colonies on the cliffs to the north-east of the Gannet headland. Vast numbers of Guillemots and Razorbills pack the ledges and create a frightful incessant din which only at night abates a little. The Fulmars too play their part in this splendour. Towards dusk the sight of the Puffins congregating in small groups near their nestling sites presents a marvellous sight.

If the Saltees had any other name before their present title, it has been long lost. As for the origin of the name there are two possible theories, Norse or of Old or Middle English derivation. However the name suggests a Norse origin (Salt ey - salt island) derived from the phenomenon of the salty spray which sweeps across the islands at times of high winds and waves, especially during the winter.

Since December 1943 the Saltees are privately owned by the Neale family. Prince Michael the First died in January 1998 and is buried in the family vault in Bannow Bay, Co.Wexford. He has been succeeded by his eldest son Michael the Second.

Permission for day visits to the Great Saltee, by courtesy of the Neale family, is not needed. Permission to visit the Little Saltee can not be granted due to the hazardous landing conditions. However we would like all visitors to respect these islands and in the words of the late Prince Michael the First.

"All people, young and old, are welcome to come, see and enjoy the Islands, and
leave them as they found them for the unborn generations to come, see and enjoy."

Michael the First

These sentiments expressed and carved in stone welcomes all visitors to these islands, erected above the landing steps on the Great Saltee.
