The 5 basic elements

Blue and natural tones....simple basics reminding of the sky, the sea and the earth...representing three of my favorite elements - among the other two:

1. air

2. water

3. wood

 

Nature is wonderfully coloured by herself and even her simplest tones carrry a charm...

According to Chinese Philosophy ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wu_Xing ) there are five elements interacting in our world: air - water - wood - metal & fire....harmony lies in aquiring a perfect balance between them and my opinion is that this also refers to us as beings and personalities, expressed by our moods and emotions...one should know when to be more soft and when more hard....when to relax and enjoy and when to concentrate....when to be cool as fresh water and when to be passionate like fire...

 

1. Mystery, 2. Three chimneys up in the sky, 3. Spiders and a lock..., 4. Domestic goddess, 5. Dive into the blue..., 6. Golden 60's feel..., 7. Happy - simple - bench Monday!, 8. Seemingly uninhabited..., 9. Aqua dream
