The elegant beauty of shapes and lines and shadows collect in a magical whisper to convey the spirit of what lies within. Timeless in beauty, the high key effect allows only the necessary essence to appear and tell its story. Light, shapes, patterns, motion and a bit of drama are the elements I always seek.

Ideally, I would like to have captured sun rays through the arch but November isn't the best time of the year to do that. The best time is in February (or so I've heard).

 

Though there weren't any sun rays, other interesting things were going on. The coolest, was when the wall of the arch lit up ... almost like it was on fire. Sadly, I didn't get any good shots of it. *heavy sigh*

 

So I pulled up this shot {SOOC in comments} as I liked the view through the arch after the sun had set. The color in the sky had potential. As you can see, I had to do an extravagant amount of sliding to pull out the detail in the rocks and the water.

 

Happy Sliders Sunday!!

It has been a while since I woke up and met the beauty of a new day. This image was shot on the rocky terrain of Valugan Boulder beach amid splashing waves that got me wet. My camera on the other hand was well protected with rain cover.

Often, for me, light is reason enough to click the shutter. Diagonal swooshes and patterns at play joined on the vertical plane draws my eye and makes me stop and consider. Textures and colors add substance for visibility, a louvered window adds insterest, an anchor and together with slight nuances of color, it is enough. Click.

A parked bike shows off its silhouetted echo in rain soaked concrete. Circles duplicate and a bold vertical line anchors. Blue and gold hued concrete serves as negative space. Lines scramble a bit adding visual pathways and interest.

A couple of weeks ago I took part in a B&W print workshop at The Photo Parlour in Nottingham. With tuition and guidance from master printer John Blakemore I was able to produce a couple of prints from my New55 negs. I had an amazing time 😄

Sunrise's are a dime a dozen! Just another cliched sunrise caught at "Sunrise Park!" Where else would you go to capture one? Maple leaves in silhouette just an added attraction!

 

Running off to the city to hang with Jackie for the day! I'll be checkin' in later this afternoon!

 

Happy Cliche Saturday!

Lofoten - 2019

Coming home

The little fisher boat is coming home from a long day, the house already in sight.

With this light it must have been absolutely magic.

Coming home

un delicato intreccio di gocce e steli sottili si trasforma in un'opera d'arte naturale, adornato da gocce di rugiada come perle preziose. Ogni punto racconta una storia di fragilità e perfezione, rivelando la magia nascosta nell'infinitamente piccolo.

Un invito a fermarsi e contemplare la bellezza che spesso sfugge allo sguardo distratto

Located near Widnes in North West of England, Fiddler’s Ferry power plant began generating enough electricity to power 2m homes in 1973. A slow and steady rise for better renewable energy and to the country hoping to become carbon-neutral led to it's inevitable demise and was officially closed on 31st March 2020. One of the last coal burning power stations in the UK.

When the museum architecture is as inspiring as this, what’s exhibited has to be grand. The Joslyn did not disappoint. Omaha, Nebraska. Sister is on 49/50 states before the 31st anniversary of her 29th birthday in June ‘26.

A crazy array of architectural wonder poses challenges for framing. Reflections play with reality while reality does it's own dance with shapes and angles that almost defy logic. Muted colors help sort things a bit. Horizontal plays with vertical and that plays with diagonals of every sort. Shapes repeat forming patterns that fold upon themselves throughout the image. It's an art institute - go figure.

primordial world lives in my imagination, draped in rainbow colors and swirling mists. Light reveals shapes that form ridges of repetition that invite exploration. Mood permeates the shot. Interpretation is up to each viewer. The universe holds many stories and realities.

I had a garage sale today, and I know it sounds so mundane to put that into words ... but that is how my story begins. I had a serious epiphany during the course of my boring and ordinary day. When I look back on my life, I find that most epiphanies occur just like that! Don't you agree?

 

There was this little boy.

 

He was sweet, gregarious and so full of life. He translated everything we said for this mother. He ran from item to item, holding them aloft in wonder. I'm talking about toys that were selling for .10¢ or .25¢. All of these toys belonged to my girls when they were little and though they carried a lot of sentimental value, they weren't worth much physically. Looking at them brought back so many wonderful, tearful and bittersweet memories.

 

To see another child enjoy them as much as my children did, was eye-opening, to say the least ... and the epiphany was realizing that the joy these items gave me, wasn't so much in the physical item itself, but rather the memory of it..

 

So I gave this sweet little boy a heaping bag of my 'memories.' And to see the light in his eyes, the joyous bounce in his walk ... well, lets just say it made my day, my week, my month! Heck, it just made my year!!

 

Letting go of the physical item does not mean letting go of the memory.

 

His words are still echoing in my head as I write this ... what he kept saying over and over again in a singsong voice:

 

"This is the best day ever!'

Light splashes a rolling hill leading to the summit of Mount Mansfield. Can you spot the early sign of fall color?

Making Time to Play

 

Inside the Broad Museum, art plays with light and reflection to create its own shapes and delight, that catch my eye. Framed within a frame, the selfie is born. Wonderful, curved spaces repeat over and over forming patterns that morph across surfaces changing contour and size. Brilliant warm colors add to the sense of play. Diagonal cants add drama and fun - it's a bit of a party - a celebration of art and appreciation - something happening.

I missed my Flickr Peeps and wanted to give you a little bit of a sunrise fence this morning. I know, the sunrise is a bit underwhelming *heavy sigh* but it finally did peek out a bit and give the sky some color! I'll be catching up to everyone tonight ... as today is a girl's day! *happy dance*

 

Happy Fence Friday!!
