Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside dreams, who looks inside awakens.. - C. G. Jung

The wake behind my boat (I bought it on Craigslist and have been teaching myself for 4 years, slowly, to navigate the waters here safely and to fix things on the boat). Lots of metaphors come to mind - path, staying on track, where we came from (recent and eons ago), where we are going, etc. But, immediately, an illustration of Flatland came to mind. Those of you who may not know the curiosity of trying to think in fewer or more dimensions may not know about this multi-faceted, clever work from 1884 (click on the link for more info). It has both social and scientific thought implications and is quite interesting from both perspectives. Anyway, I thought about the surface of the water as a two dimensional plane strange it would appear to something that lived in two dimensions only to suddenly see the shape of the cross sections of a fish or seal suddenly pop up and spread out of seemingly nowhere. I guess that I was mesmerized by the wake, but I stayed on the right sides of the navigation buoys! The overcast day was perfect for boating.
Hope your weekend went well and have a great week ahead friends!
Woke up early this morning in time for a quick trip to Avoca to catch the sunrise. The sky changed colour so quickly as the sun came up over the horizon. I liked the more subtle tones of this one before the sun broke through.

"The awake gipsy" Wall painted in the Fokus festival in Görlitz. Inspired by the painting of Rousseau "The sleeping gypsy" where a lion admires an sleeping gypsy. In this case is the gypsy awake and intending to kill an almost sleeping panther. Through this wall i try to represent the treacherous nature of the human being. Dedicated to the one that almost killed the sleeping panther in me.
Shake dreams from your hair
My pretty child, my sweet one.
Choose the day and choose the sign of your day
The day's divinity
First thing you see.
A vast radiant beach in a cool jeweled moon
Couples naked race down by it's quiet side
And we laugh like soft, mad children
Smug in the wooly cotton brains of infancy
The music and voices are all around us.
Choose they croon the Ancient Ones
The time has come again
Choose now, they croon
Beneath the moon
Beside an ancient lake
Enter again the sweet forest
Enter the hot dream
Come with us
Everything is broken up and dances.

How fickle my heart and how woozy my eyes.
And now my heart stumbles on things I don't know.
In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die.
And where you invest your love, you invest your life.
This Camellia looks almost like it could be either sunlit or moonlit :-)))

Taken from the Berkeley Hills in California. As I already mentioned in other posts, June 19 and 20 were amazing, one of the best, sunsets I had chance to see in the Bay Area. I still have several exposures from that day.
It eventually 'woke up' and flew away, but only as far as the Lavender bush further down the backyard.
Of course I went to see if it would still let me take its photo :P
