Lots of great people watching at Golden Gardens Park on this beautiful weekend.

The last time I was here, it was cold and very, very empty. Instead, we found tons of people hanging out and enjoying the weekend sun.

Somehow the Statue of Liberty poking out of the cliff and Charlton Heston slamming his fist into the ground saying "damn you all to hell!" wouldn't be out of place here. However a scene from Mad Max was filmed here.

Pythagoras of Samos
This is a COLOUR photograph of Pythagoras’s bronze statue that is located on the waterfront of the town called Pythagoreion on Samos Island, Greece at sunset. The gigantic statue was created by the sculptor Nikolas IKARIS in New York and was unveiled in August 1989. On the statue’s base an inscription reads “the number 3 is the centre of the universe or the cosmos” (meaning: the number 3 is functionally significant for the universe). Pythagoras (c.580–496 B.C.) was a Greek philosopher, mathematician, and founder of the Pythagorean brotherhood and of the number theory; he was born in Samos. He formulated principles that influenced Plato’s and Aristotle’s thought and contributed to the development of mathematics and Western rational philosophy. He is credited with the discovery of the Pythagorean theorem for right triangles (the sum of the squares of the legs [a, b] of a right triangle is equal to the square on the hypotenuse [c]: a² + b² = c²).

Pythagorass Satue on Samos Isl. №4
This is a COLOUR photograph of Pythagoras’s bronze statue at sunset from the South, showing the hypotenuse of the gigantic triangle; the statue is located on the waterfront of the town called Pythagoreion on Samos Island, Greece. The gigantic statue was created by the sculptor Nikolas IKARIS in New York and was unveiled in August 1989. There were lots of Greek expats’ organisations abroad which collected donations for the statue to be created and their names have all been carved on the statue’s marble base (enhancing techniques were applied to the marble inscriptions during post-processing in order to make them more legible). Pythagoras (c.580-496 B.C.) was a Greek philosopher, mathematician, and founder of the Pythagorean brotherhood and of the number theory; he was born in Samos.

“Am I only a God nearby,” declares the Lord, “and not a God far away? Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?” declares the Lord. “Do not I fill heaven and earth?” declares the Lord. [Jeremiah 23:23-24 NIV] 5 MORE THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW: 1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT) 2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT) 3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT) 4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT) 5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT) Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!

Tropical Lagoon
While exploring the Big Island, we came across a black beached lagoon. It was possibly one of the most incredible places I have ever seen. If it weren't for a whole island to explore, I would have loved to have just stayed in this very spot for our whole visit. However, I said that about many of the places we stumbled upon around the island. This place was magical, simply magical. This image was taken in JPG using only the settings on my camera; there was no post-processing or editing.

Molten Memories
As an Iowan I have spent an inordinate amount of my life on the beach. I have never had a night like tonight where the ocean turned a color like this. I am very colorblind but I assume this is red. I had my drone up for nearly two hours taking an endless amount of photos. This is just the first of many I am sure to post in the next couple of days. I was a big fan of the movie Total Recall. If Arnold Schwarzenegger goes back to Mars this will be one of his implanted memories.fault

The great torii (shrine gate) is the main subject against the gorgeous colors and the contrast between light & shadow during sunset. What’s also fascinating is that the patchy pattern in the sand and in the clouds are very similar, as if they are mirroring each other. Let me know if you think that’s interesting too. Thanks

Newcastle - Newcastle Beach
Right at the heart of the action, this is one of our most popular beaches. With cafes, beach kiosks, Newcastle Mall and hotels close by, it’s easy to understand why. Newcastle Beach has a reputation for being one of the best surf locations in Australia and is a favoured spot for board riders wishing to catch that perfect wave off Newcastle Point. Lifeguard Services are provided seven days a week during swimming season. A stroll between Newcastle Beach and Nobbys Beach will take approximately 15 minutes along the scenic Bather’s Way, with iconic Newcastle Ocean Baths in between.
