Grandpa's old compass

Don't know how many times I used one of these at school, or had one jabbed in my thumb :)

i was inspired from a banner in front of the aquarium Berlin, when i spent one hour to watch the yellyfishes + the water was not so clear, full of particles + so it looks like a starry sky + here i start with my new album: Jellyfish in space

In the long forgotten past before Sat-Nav (Satellite Navigation) and GPS (Global Positioning System) , we had to find out where we were and where to go using paper maps and strange little manual devices called…..Compasses!

For the group, ‘Crazy Tuesday’ and the theme of ‘Numbers’.

[lyrics]

고단한 하루가 끝나지 않는

이미 늦은 저녁

전화기 너머 들리는

네 웃음소리

난 다시 일어날 수 있어

아직 내겐

너라는 선물이 있으니까

아직 이 황량한 세상 속에

너는 내 곁에 있어주니까

아침마다 쏟아지는 햇살이

부담스러울 때

어느새 곁에 다가와 잠든

네 얼굴에

난 다시 일어날 수 있어

아직 내겐

너라는 선물이 있으니까

아직 이 황량한 세상 속에

너는 내 곁에 있어주니까

어지러웠던 하루하루가

먹구름처럼 내 앞을

가로막아도

너의 눈빛이

마치 꼭 나침반처럼

내 갈 길 일러주고 있으니

아직 내겐

너라는 선물이 있으니까

아직 이 황량한 세상 속에

너는 내 곁에 있어주니까

my compass is you aine♥♥♥

i like to draw dumb stuff on my arms

Lack of objects for today shooting.

Then I saw my compass on my backpack, idea came!!

I placed the compass on yellow paper for color contrast. Realized no magnets to create magnetic field to rotate the compass.

Found my beads magnet. Setup a LED light and smartphone shutter for 1sec. Moved a cluster of beads magnet to spin the

It worked and also leaving a trail of reflected lights from the beads, bonus!!

Hope you like it !!

One thing Tuomas Holopainen (the composer for 90% of all Nightwish songs and keyboarder) does so masterful is combining complex arrangements, surprising twists in the composition and beautiful lyrics, usually based on something like in this case a book. Tuomas accidentally combined two of my three favorite things: Music and Books. And I wonder, based on the lyrics and the little hint I left in the picture, can you guess which book this is based on? 😉

This is one of the songs all three singer performed. First was Tarja Turunen (the Queen of symphonic metal from Finland), then after she left until 2012 Anette Olzon, the Princess, performed this song with nightwish until finally Floor Jansen, the goddess from the Netherlands took it over and made it her own. I leave the links for the original and the live performance with Floor below since each of them are in their own way amazing.

This is me for forever

One of the lost ones

The one without a name

Without an honest heart as compass

This is me for forever

One without a name

These lines the last endeavor

To find the missing lifeline

Oh how I wish

For soothing rain

All I wish is to dream again

My loving heart

Lost in the dark

For hope I'd give my everything

My flower, withered between

The pages two and three

The once and forever bloom gone with my sins

Walk the dark path

Sleep with angels

Call the past for help

Touch me with your love

And reveal to me my true name

Oh how I wish

For soothing rain

All I wish is to dream again

My loving heart

Lost in the dark

For hope I'd give my everything

Oh how I wish

For soothing rain

All I wish is to dream again

Once and for all

And all for once

Nemo my name forevermore

Nemo sailing home

Nemo letting go

Oh how I wish

For soothing rain

All I wish is to dream again

My loving heart

Lost in the dark

For hope I'd give my everything

Oh how I wish

For soothing rain

All I wish is to dream again

Once and for all

And all for once

Nemo my name forevermore

Name for evermore

Compass (L), and Divider (R)

Dividers and compasses are drawing instruments that are

used to measure distances, transfer lengths from one drawing to another, and to draw circles.

A tighter view of a compass plant flower in its absolute prime in Thompson Prairie. Thompson Prairie sits on top of La Crosse Ridge and is surrounded by forested valleys and bluffs. That's why, even though it is a prairie, there are trees in the background of these images.

J'ai retrouvé ce Compas dans les affaires laissées par mon père. Je le garde précieusement et le range parmi mes objets de collection. #Macro #MacroMondays #Father

Wildflower, Compass Plant growing along the prairie trail in Hixon Forest, La Crosse, WI

A classic, almost prehistoric-looking prairie wildflower. The tallest one in the middle was around eight feet tall, or about 2.4 meters. Thompson Prairie, where this photo was taken, was filled with them, making for an interesting sight.

There was a time when instruments were simple and hand crafted, embedded in elaborate casings. This compass, hand engraved on what I think is Buffalo bone (not ivory) and completed with a tiny lode-stone mounted on a functioning compass needle was bought in Hanoi some 25 years ago as an antique. Maybe: maybe not: but hand made in a traditional ancient style. From (as they say) the collection of the photographer.
