If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the color of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Least we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the color of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay

"I don't wanna fear with love when we're so fragile,
I could never be the one to tear apart,
Help me free these selfish lies and jaded alibies,
With tears in my eyes i'll carry on..."
September 2005, trekking in the Tiger Leaping Gorge, Yunnan China. Rainy days, clouds hanging deep in the valley. Another morning, first rays of sunshine, fragile flowers overlooking the Jinsha river, dreamland.
Update Jan 29: I am overwhelmed by the feedback I got for this picture. Thanks to everyone for sharing your thoughts and comments and inviting me to post the picture in your groups. I think, the next days I will be busy visiting your photostreams in return and reading and answering your encouraging mails ;-) ... but I hope to be back posting again soon ...
Update May 20: thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts. I very much appreciate your feedback. And, I wonder what criteria Flickr applies when rating for "interestingness": In my own photostream, it is rated as Nr. 31 "only" , despite some 200+ favs ... ;-)
ODC - Fragile
Flower Blossoms are always fragile. These are such a delicate pink and I can't wait for the fruit to develop. They are like little raspberries.
An example of not quite getting your settings right, but the moment provided an alternative perspective.
I had far too wide an aperture, slow shutter speed and long exposure for this one. But although focus is off, I just love the effect it has had on the bees wings.
Highlighting their fragility and yet they take this little bee far and wide in its search for pollen.
This is Apis mellifera, the western honey bee. Australia's European colonisers introduced these bees to ensure a good supply of honey. They are now wild throughout most of our southern States.
Honey bees do play an important role as pollinators of crops and wild flowers, but some wild flowers have suffered from their presence as these flowers can only be pollinated by our native bees. Some native bees use a special pollination technique required by certain flowers called buzz pollination. European honey bees do not use this technique and remove pollen without pollinating the flowers.
