Into the depths, where secrets reside,
A world of feelings, gently tied.
Dare to stare, don't fear the gaze,
Let empathy light your soul's maze.
Into the depths, where dreams take flight,
A universe of day and night.
Dare to see, beyond the shell,
Find the truth, the story to tell.
Into the depths, where love may bloom,
A silent language, without a room.
Dare to feel, the tender touch,
And know you're loved, oh so much.
This is for my dear friends, all good people everywhere, and for my recovery.
But...to all the lunatics out there, go to hell, I'm sick of nonsense people, and tired of receiving nonsensical and personal comments from persons who think themselves and their rude messages 'clever'. I've no place for you.
Derwent Water, Keswick, Lake District
I haven’t done any serious photography since the STS course in Skye way back last February. Coupled with the pandemic and all the lockdowns and restrictions, new images have been sparse on my stream.
I’d seen a few images of Borrowdale Mill on Flickr recently and thought I’d like to have a crack at that one day. Funnily enough, the location came up in conversation on one of our many WhatsApp groups between Muddy Boots UK and the Wigan Magician - Pete Rowbottom. So, I gate crashed the trip and invited myself along... well, why not, after all the motto of the STS is Who Dares Shoots!
First stop was Keswick, where we met up with new recruit and potential STS member Mike Tonge... a.k.a. "The Caddy". First location of the day... Derwent Water.

No electronic gadgets needed scanning the airwaves, I do it the true "hands on way".
Using a traditional Ouija board instead of an Ovilus can be a fascinating exploration into the realms of the supernatural, blending antiquity with mystery. The Ouija board, also known as a spirit board or talking board, has a rich history dating back to the late 19th century when spiritualism was at its peak. Its simple yet enigmatic design consists of letters, numbers, and other symbols arranged in a systematic layout, accompanied by a planchette, a heart-shaped piece typically made of wood or plastic, which serves as a conduit for spirit communication.
Engaging with a Ouija board often involves a group of individuals lightly placing their fingertips on the planchette, asking questions aloud, and awaiting its movement across the board to spell out answers. This process is believed to facilitate communication with spirits or entities from beyond, tapping into a realm inaccessible to our normal senses. The experience can be both thrilling and unsettling, as participants feel a tangible connection with the unknown.
Contrastingly, the Ovilus operates on a different principle, employing modern technology rather than the age-old mystique of the Ouija board. Developed in the early 2000s, the Ovilus is an electronic device that purportedly detects changes in environmental conditions, such as electromagnetic fields and temperature, and converts these fluctuations into audible speech. It's marketed as a tool for paranormal investigation, providing instant responses to questions asked by users.
While the Ovilus offers a more streamlined approach to spirit communication, some enthusiasts argue that it lacks the charm and authenticity of the traditional Ouija board. The tactile sensation of moving the planchette, the anticipation of its response, and the eerie atmosphere created during a Ouija session contribute to its enduring appeal. There's a sense of tradition and ritual associated with using the Ouija board, invoking a sense of mysticism that can't be replicated by a digital device.
Moreover, skeptics often question the reliability of the Ovilus, attributing its responses to random environmental fluctuations rather than genuine paranormal activity. In contrast, the subjective experience of using a Ouija board can be deeply personal and profound, fostering a sense of connection with the supernatural world.
Ultimately, whether one chooses to use a traditional Ouija board or a modern Ovilus depends on personal preference and belief systems. Both methods offer unique insights into the unknown, inviting participants to explore the mysteries of the spirit world in their own way. I dare you....remember to close the session with "goodbye".
