A macro shot of an Amaryllis flower. Handshot with my D80 and the marvelous Nikkor 105mm. Haven't done any macros for quite some time, but while admiring the wonderful birthday flowers I got from my wife I had to take out the cam..

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
And the next set from doll meet is on our Amadeo, we wanted him to looks as fragile as he is, so he has a pink pantaloons and lots of pearl beads! ;)
Amadeo is Glorydoll Louis

One of my new year's resolutions is to start a blog. I never start on January 1st. Yesterday, I began. Have look, and please if you have any ideas, comments and/or suggestions - please tell me. Only one post so far, but it is a start. If anyone uses wordpress - can they give me some tips/tricks, please?
Photographic Punctuation - THANKS!
Will get to your streams later today - a million and one things to get done first.

Even if it sometimes seems that I'm updating my blog with a certain ease, my photography is not without problems and challenges. One thing I'm contemplating almost on a daily basis relates to my goals regarding this photography project. As I've already explained before, one goal of this project is to keep me active and regain my inspiration for my photography again (and to catalyze that inspiration to others as well). But there is also another goal. During this year I would love to come up with a portfolio that, in some ways, would define my own visual style and identity as a photographer. And I feel, that to be 'a more serious photographer' I should have my own visual style, subject of some other well defined thing that would separate me from other photographers out there and which would guide me from hereafter. Doing 'the dark frames' is part of that mission, but I feel I haven't quite yet succeeded in a way that I see them in my mind (and other things in life have kept me out of them recently).
When I look, for example, the work of different brand ambassadors (most often landscape or portrait photographers), they have usually mastered their own genre and a part of me feels this certain kind of pressure to do the same. And I'm asking myself if I'm doing something wrong as I haven't bought a pile of ND-filters, astro trackers or flying drones and I'm not searching for 'those pictures' that are so contemporary today (really a polite way to put it). To get to the point, here's the problem: I don't warm up for conventional genres because as soon as I start to work with some particular picture idea which I have already seen elsewhere (sometimes a hundred times), my motivation runs out. I enjoy too much diversity, small photography, unexpected pictures and doing images that I think some way exemplify my own photographic eye (whatever I think it is in my illusions). That's also a reason why I don't see myself working as a professional photographer, I would just lose my inspiration while molding clients wishes again and again into popular visual motifs (studio headshots, product photography, etc.).
To be honest, I think photography is a thing which I want to keep it just for myself (even if sharing my work online is important to me). I believe there is certain enchantment in a situation when we are capturing that unique light which the life is emitting and I don't want to derange it with other factors of life like work, livelihood or even 'art'. I understand that this is a fragile idea in a world where everything is made to serve some other purpose out there and because of that I don't mention it too often. Does this idea contradict with my need to find my own identity as a photographer and will I be losing something if I don't follow the path taken by professionals, brand ambassadors and other serious photographers, I don't know. All I know is that my visual taste is coming from my own heart and I'm following it, even if it comes with a certain fragile ideas.

Flower on my balcony (I am not sure anymore what it is, I think not one I planted, but it is pretty.)
Nice macro shot of a water drop, taken in my home-made light box.
I just love shooting this kind of photos :D :D

I wholeheartedly hope things will be okay.
everyone will get through this hard time without fear.
everyone will make it.
I now start counting down for the next 5 months to be back home.
People souls are like flowers...
Colourful, variable and beautiful in their own way.
In time they die but they grow again soon.
Above all they are delicate, fragile and if they are harmed the scars remain on their petals until they die no matter how much they try to heal them...

And there he was. Sitting shyly in a pot that was not even his own. Amongst the towering yews, the lauded roses and the rambunctious daisies.

Photography is expensive sometimes, isn't it?
Luckily after the first glass broke, the rest of the set wasn't worth anything with one missing, which allowed me to carry on shooting.
I thought the result looked kind of arty, something you might stare at in a cafe whilst trying to force down something pretentious made with asparagus, and using nothing but a cocktail stick because that's what everyone is expecting of you in there.
Nature seems to hold its breath, draped in a fragile layer of frost, as if bracing for the weight of the snow to come. Each branch carries the icy stillness of winter, waiting patiently for the sun’s warmth to bring it back to life. 🌿
