From elegy written in a country church yard - Grey

I selected these irises because of their link to opera, and they are in my opera corner.

 

Beverly Sills (Born, Belle Miriam Silverman) (May 25, 1929 – July 2, 2007) was an American operatic soprano known for her coloratura roles in opera.

I love listening to her, and especially to her duets with the Swedish tenor, Nicolai Gedda (1925-2017).

Their voices blend perfectly.

An excerpt from the opera “Manon”:

And Nicolai Gedda singing “Ah fuyez douces images” from the opera “Manon”. In my opinion it is the best ever performance of this aria.

Unseen Photo Fair in Amsterdam was a wonderful experience for me. The world of photography has been more extensive than I expected. Emerging talents from all over the world amazed me by their imagination, creativity and craftsmanship; on the other hand, I felt that what photography has achieved was sometimes neglected. In other words, they don't need the realities in front of them now… Anyway, participating in Unseen made me think about what I actually want to do. It's getting more and more difficult and interesting to take/make pictures…

Einaudi wrote his piece, “Elegy for the Arctic,” as a call to action. The goal was to raise awareness of the need to protect the rapidly changing Arctic.

 

“The ice is constantly moving and creating. Every hour there is a different landscape. Walls of ice fall down into the water and they create big waves.”

 

As ice from the melting glacier crashes down behind Einaudi, his performance mournfully reminds us of the impacts of global warming.

" Have you ever

Gone into my myopia

Think of a subtle way

To let it go

 

Think of your sanity (drip drip)

The drip with a frenzy (drip drip)

To rewrite the elegy (drip drip)

That would trigger your fury

 

Think of your sanity, I can't to let it go

 

Your god is some one

Who would glow when you go along

Through so many eyes

In the dark with someone

Will you go, will you go along?

Like fire runs

 

Have you ever

Been to my myopia.. "

As mentioned previously I am in Melbourne for at least another week, so these are a few photographs that I took earlier in the year. They come from a series I took at Greens Beach on a Saturday evening right at the outbreak of the COVID-19 scare.

 

This one is taken at twilight when a few souls were wandering the beach in the soft light. But very soon the sunset would take a dramatic turn (as you will see in subsequent photos this week). Because I spent more time focusing on the dramatic shots when I first processed these, this one stayed in the can.

 

Now it can be seen as an elegy to a world that seems to have gone forever.

Autumn leaves on the Oxbow Lake Loop trail, Washington

Taken September 5th, 2021

 

Colors burn where yesterday were none.

Days creep shorter, ever hastening the night.

Time grasps and clings to fleeting hours.

And summer tumbles to the fall.

 

I noticed some leaves were turning already on my hike in the Middlefork Snoqualmie area yesterday. I’m sure in a few weeks I will be embracing the colorful beauty and all the other wonderful things about autumn, but for now I find myself loath to surrender the summer just yet.

I could subtitle this shot, "An elegy after Giorgio de Chirico".

 

In this photograph I tried to create the somewhat nostalgic and claustrophobic feel of many of de Chirico's early surrealistic paintings. The old water tower and purification plant stands against the sky which represents a lost past (or is it the future?). On the right hand side the wall of the newer factory building (which is also about to be demolished) is leaning in and creating that claustrophobic sense I was looking for.

Gloomy dawn swallow,

radiant dawn butterfly:

How long can an instant last?

a moment of night in the day.

 

I, who knew how to ignore so many things,

now I know we'll never see each other

well, you left, grasping the oars,

in your boat covered in roses.

 

Now I know the truth of the earth,

that blooms even if no one tills it,

and the door of light that opens

if a shadow door closes.

 

Now I know that the night does not lie

when its dew ceases to fall:

It was a rose bush on the bank of a river,

and maybe the current dragged it...

 

And you left, crazy firefly

gloomy dawn swallow,

with the warm taste of your mouth

from your mouth that was never mine!

- Soy una humilde rama de una flor vulgar.

La vi por pura casualidad, cortada y tirada en el suelo, cuando volvía hacia el coche después de fotografiar el aterrizaje de los últimos globos aerostáticos en el European Balloon Festival de Igualada del año 2015.

Me llamó la atención esa flor de preciosa tonalidad azul y los brotes que se extendían por toda la longitud de la rama.

- ¡Qué pena!, hubiera sido hermosa en su mata con todos los brotes florecidos, pensé.

Pero ni se me pasó por la imaginación fotografiarla allí, en el suelo, al lado de piedras, tierra y rastrojos.

Sin embargo, cuando llegué al coche, o mejor durante el corto trayecto hacia el coche, se fue apoderando de mi el deseo irrefrenable de fotografiar esa simple rama con su única flor azul. Aunque no conseguía imaginar cómo podría retratarla con un fondo decente, volví a por ella, la recogí y regresé al coche.

Y puedo asegurar que fue ella quien me dió la solución. Al dejarla sobre el techo del coche para poner la mochila fotográfica en el maletero y volver después la vista hacia ella, la vi allí encima, sobre un perfecto fondo blanco automovilístico y me dije...

- No tengo ni idea de cómo hacerlo, pero quiero fotografiarla ahí mismo, donde está.

Cerré el diafragma a f/20, puse todo el zoom que tenía mi 70-300mm y vi que el bokeh no estaba mal (o sea, que no se distinguía absolutamente nada por detrás de la rama).

No me gustaba nada el aspecto metálico del techo del coche, pero estaba seguro de que podría arreglarlo en el laboratorio digital.

Enfoqué, hice dos disparos, me la llevé a casa, la edité lo mejor que supe sin oscurecer el fondo ni virar nada... y me enamoré de ella.
