Everything about my camera is manual; and in low light some times it just hard to get a sharp image, this is a good example.
"It's a very fragile world, she told us, so walk carefully everywhere you go & we promised to remember for as long as we could."
~Story People
“Up until a certain point in my life, I thought that bad things happened to other people’s families. My mum was in her forties and my father in his fifties when they passed away. That was difficult enough. Nothing really prepared me for my sister’s death. She was only twenty one, and had a little boy at the time. When she was born she had a hole in her heart. It was operated on, and a few months later she was gone.
A layer of people who I loved dearly were no longer there. For a long time afterwards I didn’t know who I was anymore; I had to redefine myself. Over the next few years, I began to rebuild my life and move forward. I learnt early on to appreciate the people I have around me. My friends, my remaining family and my wife’s family are all I have now, and I don’t take anything for granted. I know how fragile life can be.”

Taken in the graveyard of Old Christ Church on St. Simons Island, GA. Some of these graves date back to the early 1800s. The small cross dates from 1891-1894. You do the math. My first upload of the year. Kind of a personal reminder how fragile life can be and to be thankful for every second that's spent with the people I love. ...a little sappy, but hey...
Better if you see it LARGE on black. April 2009.

A piece called’Fragile’.I’ve went through a lot with my body over the years.I starved it and cut it during my teens due to my depression.I had it abused by my abuser cooperlock during the age of 16-18.Since then I’ve tried to come to terms with the fact my body is disabled and that that is ok.I’ve had to come to terms with how feminine it is as a non-binary person.My body is fragile like flowers but slowly I’m learning to see it as beautiful like flowers too.
Despite their legendary crudeness and fragility it seems there is now more love for older Summer castings than when they were new! A variety of vehicles often rarely modelled by other manufacturers, charming packaging artwork and endless variations make this brand an unlikely under dog hero loved by a good many collectors.
I have to admit to not ever seeing this particular Summer casting before until Mikaela very kindly sent me it recently as part of her usual charity shop escapades. Despite a body almost completely devoid of casting finesse, I would say its meant to represent an old Chevrolet C-10 based Ambulance, despite its Police livery, and has charm by the bucketload!
In extremely good condition considering the hard lives these cheapo models often led.
when she sleeps there is a fever dream
it brings the night terrors to harm this fragile bird
she speaks in tongues, the words they come undone
then with a wayward mind she struggles through the night
these cold nightmares they make her worse for wear
lost in the dark, she's got a heavy heart
and when she wakes in her fragile state
well, she calls my name hoping that i keep her safe
all that I can do, is hope she makes it through
all that I can do, is hope she makes it through the night
through the night
Handle with care...
Sometimes you don't realize how fragile until tagedy strikes... a dear friend of ours lost his wife this week... then my husband lost an uncle last night... kind of depressing.
I took this shot when I was on field trip for work. Small detail all around, just we have to see the hidden beauty here and there. This dragonfly was on this fragile stand for long time. Background is a muddy yellow river.
When I took this shot I felt that world is so beautiful. Then when I look at this photo again and also feel that way.

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
