Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Colour re-edit of a black and white image originally captured in January 2020. Just about to break into a smile here and I love it when I can make someone's day with a photograph. Enjoy!
A connection between a human being and Mother Nature can emerge suddenly or develop gradually - and it is such an amazing feeling... Of course it is most likely to happen in places of great natural beauty, like this one... as long as other people around keep quiet.

Where there's a music should be comin' out of every car
There is a silence all over downtown
Where community celebrations shall be aroused
I walk the sterile gardens, life is on pause, here it is
No can do this, no can do that
What the hell can you do, my friend?
In this place that you call your town
I guess you can't expect much from the hometown
Well I don't know if you can even call it your own
When they don't want you to get near excitement
And in protest of that you just stay home, here it is now
No can do this, no can do that
What the hell can you do, my friend?
In this place that you call your town
On intersection of all dimensions
Where I was stoppin' by just for a drink
I meet a brother from tribal connection
And together we began to sing
We gonna turn frustration into inspiration
Whatever demons are there, we gonna set them free
Such is the method of tribal connection
Of our fun loving restless breed
I wanna walk this Earth like it is mine
And so is everyone in our fun lovin' tribe
C'mon man, is that real so much to ask?
From all these goddamn Nazi-fuedals
But I'm gonna take it to community
'Cause I want everyone to see
There never was any conspiracy
And we are all here simply to sing
No can do this, no can do that
What the hell can you do, my friend?
In this place that you call your town
Where there's a music should be comin' out of every car
There is a silence all over downtown
Only the intersection semi-alive
Outskirts are sedated, me gone

A song from before the time of Covid, from a band that got it's start in my old stomping grounds, a place they called Alphabet Land, the east village of Manhattan.
My contribution to this weeks theme "connection" in the group Macro Mondays, grandma's pearl necklace.
This shows 2 'intended contacts' - the sd card into reader, then the usb contacted to the desktop.
HMM to everyone
Since two weeks I have no internet at home. My provider said that the cable in the street is the reason and it will take quite a while to fix it... :(
So for now I just have my limited phone connection to check mails and other news. Can you remember your life before internet became a normal thing?
Anyway, I'm at my parents place now for Easter holidays. So I have the chance for this upload. I hope everyone is fine. I hope to be back on Flickr as soon as possible.

this raindrop intrigued me. it held important reflections: reflections of crisscrossed, connected plants. interweaving that’s echoed in the blurred background. we’re all interconnected. our lives are intertwined in beautiful ways.
happy friday, flickr friends! i’m grateful our paths are connected. thanks for your inspiration, support, wisdom, and kindness.

Aster and Chrysanthemum flowers ...
If I had a single flower for every time I think about you,
I could walk forever in my garden.

“Life is about connection, not perfection.”

Thank God. That "perfection" thing escapes me.
During Krishna Janmashtami celebrations in India, young boys partake in a cherished tradition of adorning blue paint to emulate Lord Krishna, a revered deity in Hindu mythology. Lord Krishna, often depicted with blue skin, represents divinity, compassion, and playfulness. His birth anniversary, Janmashtami, is marked by various rituals and festivities, including reenactments of his life events.
Krishna's mythology is rich with tales of his divine exploits, teachings, and playful antics as a cowherd in Vrindavan. He is celebrated for his wisdom, compassion, and unwavering devotion to righteousness, as depicted in sacred texts like the Bhagavad Gita and the Bhagavata Purana. Through Janmashtami celebrations and practices like wearing blue paint, devotees reaffirm their connection to Lord Krishna and seek to embody his virtues of love, devotion, and righteousness in their own lives.
The Sapphire by the Gardens building project on Victoria Street/Exhibition Street opposite the Carlton Gardens soars above the venerable trees. The building comprises 2 towers (60 stories) connected by this golden bridging structure. One is a residential tower, the other a hotel (Shangri-la), along with 10 levels of shops etc. When finished it will dominate the gardens. Using my Lensbaby. The nearby street light was positioned in just the wrong place to get a clear close up shot. www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/sapphire-by-the-gardens-3.... www.sapphirebythegardens.com.au/

For the person who is celebrating life today..who loves bridges and light..whose immense talent of capturing such beauty i cannot replicate..but still I try because of his encouragement.. Happy Birthday 🎂 dear Lucian!
I found this ring at a goldsmith in Kenmare, Ireland. It's full of symbolism to me : My love and I - we are two individuals, forming something new and beautiful together, being one and two at a time, supporting eachother's "gold". All this on a free will and in different playful shapes, but equal in our "yes" to truth and loyalty.
These are not our wedding rings, but my private little mind-supporters. ;)
Have a HMM !
