This sheet music is Chopin's Nocturne Op.32, No.1...Listen
I don't have any new images as the weather has been so FREEZING and uninspiring...so I've posted an old favourite with a beautiful piece of music to relax to :)

Explored on Nov 19!
Conceptual shot taken at Lake Lavon once more. My friend brought along a red frame, and I once again utilized the balloons I had purchased. I’m not sure exactly what my message is with this shot. I just wanted to make something that stood out.

OK's it's Songs and Bokeh week at 24/7 Bokeh Life! Think of a song, find a spot and shoot! It's that simple! Remember to stick it in our contest thread!
Taking a self portrait with a lensbaby is a challenge especially early in the morning. It's a manual focus lens. I also hate photos of myself so this one I will check off my 100x with a lensbaby and you likely won't see "me" again in the 100x rather you will see other things with the lensbabies or maybe you will. LOL
I used the Double Glass in the composer pro with the f2.8 aperture ring and the +4 macro filter on the optic. I tried to judge where I could put the camera to take a "not bad" image. This is the best of a few.
I don't always get to "thank you" or comment back on a comment that you may leave here on my image but, just know they are read and appreciated. So with that, thank you for your comments and faves that you may leave. They are not necessary but very much appreciated.

“Life is made up of small pleasures. Happiness is made up of those tiny successes. The big ones come too infrequently. And if you don't collect all these tiny successes, the big ones don't really mean anything.” - Norman Lear .
I am glad to see that quite a few of my recent uploads have made it to EXPLORE. Thanks a lot for supporting me all the times.

Beeeeeeeeee! Look, it's a beeeee! I decided to use my Lensbaby to take my pictures again today, but this time I also attached my macro filters. I was determined to get a good Lensbaby macro shot...and I think I pulled it off!
Ok, in all seriousness, this shot was a little terrifying to execute. I was taking pictures of cherry blossoms and I heard buzzing ALL around me in the tree above my head. That part didn't really bother me, since I know that bees don't really care about people as long as they are left alone. What scared me is when I got the idea to take a macro picture of a BEE, and ended up having my face mere inches from it. This lens is not at all like my Canon 100mm macro, where you can stand reaaaaally far away from your subject and still get a super close shot; oh noooo, I soon discovered that you have to get up close and personal with your subject to get a true macro shot.
SO I DID, and it was totally worth it. I had to focus my Lensbaby and track this little dude while he flitted about his business. with my camera trained on him, and I had to quickly manual focus each time.
I think I've pulled off something special with these two shots. Maybe not special in the photographic world, but a milestone for me nonetheless. *Proud*
At the weekend we had the opportunity to work with composer Mark Bowden on some portraits. As well as some location shots I'd also planned on some fairly standard shots by a window with light streaming through, and found a pub with some south facing windows. It turned out that wasn't such a great plan since the winter sun didn't get high enough to get over the houses on the other side of the road, but that didn't matter, because the Park Crescent pub was interesting enough that we didn't have to try hard to find other options. Thanks to the landlady for not minding while we took over the pub for a bit - thankfully we were in there early enough before any other customers!
How deeply plays your song,
each note a touch upon my heart,
so bittersweet for joy of love
and the mourning of its loss

Johannes Brahms (German: [joˈhanəs ˈbʁaːms]; 7 May 1833 – 3 April 1897) was a German composer, pianist, and conductor of the mid-Romantic period. Born in Hamburg into a Lutheran family, he spent much of his professional life in Vienna. He is sometimes grouped with Johann Sebastian Bach and Ludwig van Beethoven as one of the "Three Bs" of music, a comment originally made by the nineteenth-century conductor Hans von Bülow.
Brahms composed for symphony orchestra, chamber ensembles, piano, organ, voice, and chorus. A virtuoso pianist, he premiered many of his own works. He worked with leading performers of his time, including the pianist Clara Schumann and the violinist Joseph Joachim (the three were close friends). Many of his works have become staples of the modern concert repertoire.
Brahms has been considered both a traditionalist and an innovator, by his contemporaries and by later writers. His music is rooted in the structures and compositional techniques of the Classical masters. Embedded within those structures are deeply romantic motifs. While some contemporaries found his music to be overly academic, his contribution and craftsmanship were admired by subsequent figures as diverse as Arnold Schoenberg and Edward Elgar. The diligent, highly constructed nature of Brahms's works was a starting point and an inspiration for a generation of composers.

Originally created in Wombo Dream from a clip of the left guitar below, but I could not get Wombo to create an image of a woman/guitar, like it did for a man/guitar, so the source for the artwork above was ultimately a clip of the male version guitar.

mitri Shostakovich, the other major soviet composer of the 20th century and allegedly a bitter rival, once wrote Prokofiev some of the most generous lines that a fellow artist can write: ¨I wish you at least another hundred years to live and create. Listening to such works as your Seventh Symphony makes it much easier and more joyful to live.” It was a nice discovery to find the statue of Prokofiev wearing a hat in the heart of Moscow, standing proud and somewhat defiant to the surrounding tourist traps. He wrote a hymn to Stalin, so the appreciation of his music requires the effort of detaching it from his politics in the same way that appreciating a summer walk around Moscow in year 2023 requires the effort of detaching the city’s long and rich history from the terrible deeds of its current KGB overlord and thuggish Czar. It’s not an exercise of complicity by silence (or aloofness) that is required, but perhaps arriving to a basic realization: What keeps Putin’s kleptocracy alive is not really the acquiescence and support of (all) Russians, it’s mostly fear. Well financed and carefully manufactured terror.
