Nestled outside of Copper Mountain in Colorado, this caught my attention fast as I was coming back home to Denver. It literally came out of no where, and thus I slammed on the breaks and made a B-line for the shoulder of the road. This was an utterly incredible scene, looking like it has never even been touched by man…..standing here looking at this, was nothing but absolute paradise….. / --John —-—-—-—-— See more on my website jdebordphoto.com

Yosemite Valley, California, taken in Northern California. / Canon Powershot SD200 Not just a great Valley… / but a shrine to human foresight, strength of granite, power of glaciers, the persistence of life, and the tranquility of the High Sierra. / Yosemite National Park, one of the first wilderness parks in the United States, is best known for its waterfalls, but within its nearly 1,200 square miles, you can find deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoias, a vast wilderness area, and much more. / / / /

A water droplet on the petals of a mum… the colors and reflections in the drop were amazing I couldn’t resist… : D

You know the grips in a water bottle… well that’s what this is. I took the aquafina label off, and put some colorful wrapping paper behind it. There was a few bubbles in the water, which looked cool with the texture of the bottle. It looks like a droplet continuously dropping into a puddle to me…haha. Enjoy! I used my 105mm macro lens for this.

For centuries the monastery was the spiritual and cultural centre of Upper Carinthia and with its possessions round the Millstätter See, in the valley of the Görtschitz, in Friuli and in Salzburg, was one of the largest in the province. It is presumed to have been founded in about 1070, but had definitely been established before 1122 and was run as a Benedictine abbey. In 1469 the buildings and assets were taken over by the Order of St. George, an Austrian order founded to combat the invading Turks. After its collapse in 1598 the premises passed to the Jesuits. The church is now the property of the parish, while all other buildings belong to the Austrian government and are used by the Austrian State Forestry Commission (Österreichische Bundesforste). Millstatt Millstatt is a village in Carithia that is situated near the northern shore of Lake Millstätter See near the Nockberge. If you have read my article on the National Parks of Austria, the Nockberge might sound familiar to you – it is them of the not-quite-a-national-park reserve, which offers good hiking opportunities. Millstatt itself benefits quite a bit from the vicinity to these mountains, however, it is best known as a formerly imperial spa town that managed to preserve much of its 19th century splendour. Millstatt’s oldest record dates back to Neolithic times, to approximately 2000 BC. Archaeological findings from that period were discovered on the Millstätter Berg hill near the hamlet of Lammersdorf. Around 500 BC, various Celtic tribes arrived in the area and populated much of today’s Carinthia until the Romans arrived in 15 BC. The Romans were the first people in Carinthia to convert to Christian faith and built a church near another hamlet of Millstatt, Laubendorf. When Slavonic tribes started to migrate into Carinthia in the 5th and 6th century, they destroyed this church. The principality of Karantania formed as the seed for today’s Carinthia. It went under Bavarian and later Franconian rule in the 8th century. Millstatt as a Scholastic Centre Around this time, the bishops of Salzburg accepted the task of re-Christianising the people south of the Alps. They sent missionaries to Karantania, Bavarian settlers followed. In 800, the first Slavonic-Bavarian church was built in today’s Millstatt. According to legend, a Slavonic duke called Domitian became a Christian and threw a thousand statues of pagan gods (Latin: “mille statue”) into the lake, which thereafter was called “lake of the mille statue” from which Millstätter See developed. The sad rationale of modern linguistics, however, teaches us to doubt such legends – in fact, the name refers to a place and developed only in the 11th century, a long time after all pagan statues had gone. In 1070, a Benedictine monastery was founded in Millstatt. This was done with the support of the Duke Aribo of Bavaria and the Archbishop of Salzburg. Soon the monastery became the scholastic centre of Carinthia. For more information on the Stift Millstatt and its colourful history, please see my article on the monasteries of Carinthia. The former monastic church still serves as a parish church to Millstatt. Millstatt turning into a Fancy Spa Town The following centuries saw the arrival of the Knights of St George, Jesuits, some attempted Turkish invasions and the Napoleonic Wars. Carinthia was under changing administrations and it is hard to keep an overview on the turbulent past of this province. A very important innovation was the towns opening towards tourism in the second half of the 19th century. The construction of a railroad accelerated this development, and soon the first lakeside promenade and public bath alongside with B&Bs and hotels were opened. The former monastery was transformed into a hotel in 1901. In 1921, Millstatt earned itself the status of an official “spa town” and emphasised that by hiring a spa orchestra of 25 musicians that performed nightly by the lakeside promenade during the main season. Some of Millstatt’s most significant buildings date back to the period between approximately 1880 and 1920. This is when many Viennese aristocrats had their countryside retreats built here for stays in summer. To accommodate modern sightseeing-needs, the tourism board of Millstatt publishes a guide to 20 particularly nice villas as a “Villenwanderweg” (“Villa Hiking Route”). Millstatt Museums & Nearby Attractions Furthermore, visitors can learn more about the history of Millstatt in the town museum, situated in the former monastery. The local dungeon prides itself for still having some 16th century graffiti. A separate collection shows an array of rosaries, which might delight individuals with very specific interests. The more recent past of Millstatt is shown in the “Heimat- und Fremdenverkehrsmuseum” in the former primary school of the town. This moderately interesting collection presents daily life in the past 150 years. If all that is not enough for you, reach out to other attractions of Carinthia. In the vicinity of Millstatt, these include Gmünd, Seeboden and Spittal; Villach, Velden, Ossiach and Maria Wörth.

You give me rainbow butterflies / Your hand touches mine and I feel / The wisdom of oak trees line up / And we walk that lane which shines / Both of our spirits on parade Your wings are vibrating those / Colors that catch the light / My eyes are green to emeralds delight / As you listen for my lead / The one I took from our Spirits creed We make a pack of lovers bliss / That all things are possible with / One soulful kiss / That all who know us or come / Our way / Are blessed with knowing / All things are possible / Today. Linaji 2009 All things are possible if we start right now to believe that here in this moment is our POINT OF ATTRACTION / That no matter for how long or what has been going on that does not seem to work can change in an instant if we understand that everything that can ever possibly happen can only happen at this point in time. NOW That everything changes when we start to see that life is suppose to be FUN and we can allow the infinite possibilities to formulate the best path for our desires to manifest. I have never seen this more true than my own life. As everyday I soften my thinking to better feeling thoughts I experience new vista’s to guide me towards that which I am becoming and that which I desire. Today has been such an easy day full of butterfly vibrations and lovely sounds and visions and YOU! xox

The old core of the village occupies a rocky peninsula. High up on the headland, surrounded on three sides by water, stands the Late Gothic parish church, a prominent landmark; note the fine Baroque interior, the Romanesque crypt and the 15th-16th C. high altar with a beautiful Late Gothic figure of the Virgin. In the churchyard there is a round charnel house of 1278. Close by stands the little 12th C. Rosenkranzkirche (Rosary Church) or Winter Church, with well preserved Romanesque frescos of the Apostles. The picturesque village of Maria Worth is situated on the south shore of Lake Wörthersee and is one of the most charming scenic pearls of Carinthian beauty
