I particularly liked this dignified bird.

That enlightenment "cannot be attained by one who has lost his strength" makes sense. There are also prophecies of Asita and Dipankra that I have never heard of.

Enlightenment comes at the business end of a pistol, or found at the bottom of a bottle.
It seems like the Buddha might have agreed with you when he was fasting his way to nirvana."The Enlightenment, the Age of Reason, is seen as the beginning of modern depravity."- Umberto Eco

I prefer this reading of Buddha´s fasting. I believe it comes more close to the original intention.

Beautiful northern sunset/sunrise.
Thanks. It was taken a few moments after this:
Uau.This first moment is still more beautiful!

At sunset, then. The softer and more subtle colours are the best.
Beneduck Cumberbooch peers from a window in Stockholm:

Obsessed with facial symmetry.
This shows very well the birch trees by the shore and the darker pine trees behind, both reflected in both the water and in the sky. Nice black and white picture...
I love it when there are new pics on this thread.
My welcome to Mr. Cumberbooch (after discreetly looking him up on Wikipedia).
I like all your photos NS, but I prefer those in black and white. One notices details, one wouldn't in colour.
The interesting trait here: you can hardly distingish the reflection from the original.
Is there any kind of exposition that might make this difference more evident?
