There's a fragile tension,
That's keeping us going
It may not last forever,
But oh well it's blowing...
Depeche Mode
The overall appearance from her large celluloid injected bubble head down to her satin minuscule dainty feet that were like rabbit toes left an innocent and appealing yet strangely, almost aversive, response in its entirety. Because of her eye deformity, Fragility's vision was hazy and clouded. But if it didn't prevent her from dancing in her ballet sequence at local shows and birthday parties, it didn't matter at all. The audience swooned over her more than anyone else in the world and longed to be in a close relationship with this delicate “object”. But nothing of the sort was ever allowed according to the staff who were very overprotective in order to preserve Fragility's youth, purity and innocence. Fragility wasn’t even allowed to touch her feet to the ground without slippers made of China silk. She couldn't go out of sight from her protector for fear that she would be harmed. Fragility wished she had been born with an ugly face, normal eyes and an oddly proportioned body. The ones with homely demeanors, and certainly those with normal eyesight, seemed to have a better life altogether.
Beauty is a fragile gift.

Inspired by Inspired by: | Sting- Fragile
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
Lest we forget how fragile we are
There are moments when the body gives in before the spirit, when stillness becomes a language of its own. His eyes, sharp yet weary, hold a thousand untold stories—of resilience, of vulnerability, of the fragile pause between endurance and surrender. The floor cradles him, the world spins quietly above, and yet within those eyes burns an unyielding flame.
A fine art black and white child portrait that captures raw emotion through expressive eyes and soft tones. The photograph conveys both innocence and strength, inviting the viewer into a moment of stillness and reflection. This is a study in storytelling portrait photography, where light, detail, and emotion meet to create an intimate, human connection.
I aim for this image to speak beyond words – to spark curiosity, invite interpretation, and remind us of the depth within fleeting moments. Your thoughts and reflections are always valued.
It's been a trying week in the office, fragile is how I feel. TGIF...

I found this one just outside the Tate Modern. Bizarrely it's the only one I've seen after two walks around central London in the last week!
I've recently set up a Facebook page, so feel free to click on the link and like it :-)
Fragile Minds.
Why did I start this? I started this to express myself when words do not suffice. I've gotten lost in the business of life, in the desperation of being okay.
But sometimes I am not okay. A past still haunts me. I want to choose to let it shape me, not define me.
Fragile hearts lead to fragile minds.
This one is definitely fragile. A very thin, eggshell china cup brought back from China over 20 years ago.
It's lit with three small flashlights and off camera flash.
She has such a fragile form. She sat there hugging her knees, complaining that she was cold because I opened the veranda door. So I took the shot and sent her to finish getting ready for school.
For ODC "Knees"
This was a cool challenge as I love playing with light and form :D
Sorry I switched up the photos, so what was last in comments is now here and vice versa

Fragile - Sting & Stevie Wonder
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour 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
Lest 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
