#art #Greece #ocean #flowers
Bright painting of a view over the ocean, seen from a terrace in a Greece coastal village. The ocean is coloured in rather shiny shades of blue, green, pink and purple, with an orange reflection from the sun in it. There are some purple hills on the horizon. On the terrace are many plant pots with purple, orange and red coloured flowers. The terrace has a low white stone wall, there are a lot of red flowers on that wall as well. There is a blue table on the terrace with a bottle and two glasses of wine, and green grapes. There are two orange chairs. On the left there are typical white Greece houses with blue roofs. The sky is coloured turquoise right above in the painting, with many clouds in various shades of soft purple and pink below it, and a bright yellow sun with an orange glow around it.

Wherever I look I can see news about a few very rich individuals being stranded on a submarine that was supposed to take them on a tour of the Titanic. The effort put in place to rescue them appears huge in scope.

Last week over six hundred people died in a #shripweck off the coasts of #Greece and nobody cared. Nobody even bothered to start a rescue operation until it was too late.

Stop pretending people are equal, I hate this hypocrisy.

When it's too hot for anything else, Russian planes save the day

It is too hot.

The temperature limit of Canadian firefighter hydroplanes is 38°C, and it was 45°C in #Greece where the #fire was nearing Athens. Only the #Russian BE-200 (with a 43°C limit) was able to work, and the crew risked safety flying little above the limit. Done more than 35 flights between 14:30 and 21:00, dropped more than 400 metric tonnes of water that day (a few days ago).
