Mother and Child May 11, 2015

路过南英伦一个地方看到这个雕塑,外形简单纯朴却感人。

马上令人联想到母爱的伟大。

motherchild

虽然英伦母亲节于三月中旬已经庆祝过,北美及一些南美、亚非同欧洲等国家昨天才是母亲节。
特别送上这张雕像图片。

希望每天都是母亲节。

Steve,

http://yoga.about.com/od/yogaposes/a/boat.htm



The bronze sculpture is entitled "Unfolding Love" by Janis Ridley.

In her statement, Ridley says, "Sculpture is a way of communicating complex emotions, feelings and ideas. Often they are revealed during the making process. I explore ideas of love, humour, power and trust, the human story.

"Nature, dance and certain myths and literature are sources of inspiration."

Yueyin,

I had to zoom in quite a bit; but I see two rock climbers: one in a light blue shirt along one of the crevices (on the right-side of the picture) about 1/3 way up to the top of the rock formation, another, shirtless, along the corner crevice where two sheer walls of rock cliffs meet perpendicularly, about 1/8 way up to the top.

And then there are two people at the base of the rock formation, looking up respectively at the two climbers.

Steve,

You are right. In the wild wild west of this country, rock climbing seems to be very popular.

That's pretty funny.

That reminded me of the title of an old documentary《条顿剑在行动》. I saw the film in Beijing, in the early 60s.

征服七姊妹岭 Conquering the Seven Sisters Cliffs May 15, 2015

上文提到 Eastbourne 义本,这个海边城镇在 Dover 多佛尔以东,约两小时车程的距离。

上文提到 Eastbourne 义本,这个海边城镇在 Dover 多佛尔以东,约两小时车程的距离。

著名的白崖连绵不绝,好像将南英伦的海边绣上一条白丝带子,悠然自得地漂浮于海涛白浪之上。

从 Beachy Head 比奇角再向东走不远,即到达著名的远足景点,七姊妹国家郊野公园。
http://www.sevensisters.org.uk

七姊妹 Seven Sisters 一词源自 16 世纪伦敦泰晤市河以北一个民居的七棵榆树。这些榆树围成一个大圆圈,中间长著一棵核桃树。

现在的 “七姊妹” 位于伦敦市中心以北在阿仙奴足球会 Arsenal 附近,坐地铁轻易可到。

在香港,除了有又一村、彩虹村,在北角的健康村就位于 “七姊妹道”。

但是,此七姊妹与彼七姊妹有很大不同。

原来英国的七姊妹国家郊野公园有七个高低不同的山头。每一个山头都有一个名字, 分別是 Haven Brow, Short Brow, Rough Brow, Brass Point , Flat Hill, Bailey’s Hill 和 Went Hill.

overview

我从 Went Hill 出发,特别走到海边从低角度、近距离仰头观望欣赏高高笔直的白崖,又是另一番风味。

beach_cliff

徒步攀越了七个山头之后,高高低低的地势,有时候是蛮吃力的。

沿途看到很多一群群的灰兔子,一看到人来,全部转头四散奔跑。蹦蹦跳跳的时候,只看到它们白色的臀部,在绿草黄花的山岭上,此起彼落,逃窜至他们挖掘好的地洞阵,煞是奇观!

令人联想到《爱丽斯梦游仙境》"Alice in the Wonderland" 里面会引路的兔子。

当到达最后一个山岭时,在 Haven Brow 居高临下,看到一个地理奇景 - 牛轭湖 Ox Bow Lake, 或叫河迹湖。
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxbow_lake

oxbow oxbow2

地理景致的变化,出奇不意,令人有柳暗花明又一村的感觉。

七姊妹,也想起峻拔的八仙岭。

尼泊尔自上月 25 日被 7.8 级大地震蹂躏,直至昨天仍不断受余震影响,乡间村落被夷平无数,死伤数以万计。
http://earthquaketrack.com/p/nepal/recent

此喜玛拉雅山国在 70 年代被嬉皮一族喻为世无争的香格里拉 Shangri-la,差点与桃花源齐名。

至今依然游人不绝,也是许多喜欢爬山远足爱好者梦寐以求之地。

其首都加德满都离开邻国印度的首都新德里只不过一个多小时飞机航程。一次有幸到此隐蔽山国公干,从机场到酒店途中,70 年代经典电影 The Lost Horizon 的悦耳主题曲萦绕于耳。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgRj8BEmQ1c 此片由《殉情记 Romeo and Juliet》主角英阿(根庭)混血清纯玉女奥莉花荷西 Olivia Hussey 主演。

到达酒店后,白雪皑皑世界第一高峰的喜玛拉雅山脉赫然出现在房间窗户面前,其气势之磅礡,实在令人心中为之一震。

马上上山的欲望,悠然而生。

另一个难忘的景点就是加德满都王宫广场 Kathmandu Durbar Square。

当地流行一个观光方式 - 坐在广场周围的屋顶咖啡座内,轻松欣赏联合国保护文物的壮观神庙。

此片拍摄到 7.8 级地震那一瞬间所造成的惊慌 (包括雀鸟)和震撼。

此链结由小型无人飞机拍摄到的广泛文物破坏。
http://www.theguardian.com/world/video/2015/apr/27/drone-footage-kathmandu-nepal-earthquake-video

救难工作刻不容缓。 默默祝福,希望尼泊尔人民能够早日渡过这个难关。
