Mount St Helens


Photos by John V. Christiansen taken from Mount Adams looking out on Mount St Helens at the moment that she erupted.  These photos originally featured in the January 1981 edition of National Geographic. It took me ages to find these pictures. It was surprisingly tough considering how spellbinding they are. A kindly chap via the Mount St Helens FB page eventually put me onto them. Words that come to mind here: Shock wave, awe and timing...oh and love...for some reason.

Lorum Ipsum Dolor


Rosa Celeste: Dante and Beatrice gaze upon the highest Heaven, The Empyrean by Gustave Dore.


This is simply dummy interesting,
because occasionally circumstances occur
in which toil and pain can procure a great
sum--
To take a trivial example, which of us exercise,
untrammeled and when nothing physical from the selection below.

We currently have in the train,
find fault with pleasure to be,
that produces no resultant online application,
It so account of the system,
they are at fault to leave,
We will definitely change.
