Por alguna oculta razón, la belleza es frágil... y efímera.

 

Because, for some hidden law, beauty is fragile... and ephemeral.

Third sister

smaller than the rest

Blue thing

She's tears and all that's blessed

 

She's fears and all

loneliness

She's beauty from a kiss

and shining

all the time,

she's someone we don't know we'll miss

Until her

 

fragile beauty

her fragile beauty

is gone

 

She burns

brighter than Christmas trees

Beautiful!

Beautiful!

She cries

and I drown in water

from her eyes

Beautiful! She's so Beautiful!

 

From the mysteries of the ages

to the men we keep in cages

and the poetry and politics,

the science and arithmetic

Beautiful!

 

From the glaciers in the mountains

to the waters in the brooks,

all the ignorance and avarice

and knowledge in the books

from the dinosaurs

to astronauts

gentle rains

to hurricanes

bicycles and aeroplanes

ecstasy and searing pain,

 

Beautiful! She’s so beautiful!

 

She grows

wider than meadows

and dies quicker than flies

Taller than rain clouds

beneath a perforated sky

she lies

 

Beautiful, she’s so beautiful

 

from the motion in the ocean

and the creatures in the sea

the color spectrum everywhere

and everything we see

 

She's so beautiful

"I learned something this evening. I learned that you never leave your pinhole on a tripod in the wind without either weighing it down or keeping hold of it, lest the lovely wood box should fall right over and have chunks taken out of it. I suppose, however, that's a different story of a different camera and not really relevant to this discussion." -Rhett

Fragile sandstone formations in Fantasy Canyon in the Uinta Basin about 30 miles SE of Vernal, Utah in the middle of the Basin Natural Gas Fields. The land is managed by the BLM and Fantasy Canyon is a bit tricky to find and get to. Definitely a 4wd opportunity. Take lots of water -- it is seriously hot in this remote little canyon. But the formations -- unique in the world, are well worth the trek. To find the place get a map at the BLM field office in Vernal.

Fragility, detail, light and contrast where the 4 words in which I used to inspire and stimulate this drawing.

modeste hommage à Edward Hopper et sa maitrise du découpage et de la géométrie.

J'ai pris cette photo dans les jardins de la Fondation de l'Hermitage à Lausanne ou se tenait l'exposition Edward Hopper. Les caisses vertes d'emballage des tableaux de l'exposition s'entassaient dans une serre dont les vitres reflétaient le jardin. Ici aussi tout est coupé, dedans et dehors.

This photo has made me think about all the things that still frighten me. About the above mentioned fragility of life, living beings and this world´s balance. But also, about my own vulnerability, inescapable weakness linked to ageing, indifference and cruelty of those who don´t appreciate the uniqueness of life...

A beautiful seed head of one f the many dandelions in my garden.

The fragile white crystals, or frozen dew drops, created delicate branched patterns of ice crystals.

The sun destroyed the hoar frost and quickly melted the fragile ice crystals, but not before some beautiful pieces of winter cover were highlighted.

Ya termine el segundo número del fanzine Fragile, en esta ocasión viene dedicado al cartón, porque el cartón es vida.

“Civilization is hideously fragile and there's not much between us and the horrors underneath, just about a coat of varnish.”

Carrie P. Snow

"When we speak the word 'life' , it must be understood we are not refering to life as we know it from its surface on fact, but to that fragile, flucrating center which forms never reach"

Antonin Artaud

'(wo)man is harder than iron, stronger than stone and more fragile than a rose.'

~ turkish proverb

 

delicately etched metal with soft silk fibers, quartz and kyanite... all representing fragile strength... kyanite to enhance tranquility and calm... quartz for grounding...

je voulais faire une mosaïque, mais t'es mieux en grand :)

"You better not be takin' my picture!"

 

Yes, it's rude not to ask. But ask, and the whole chemistry changes--the magic is fragile. "Better to ask for forgiveness than to beg for permission", some say.

 

Covering news, returning without the assigned photo won't get you far. The editor won't publish a note from your Mom--"dear readers, please forgive my boy, but this photo assignment just didn't go his way. The people weren't co-operative."

 

There are so many wonderful assignments, but occasionally the awful ones must come your way. Situations where the public's right to know trumps the individual's right to privacy (so says the Boss!)

 

"Sorry, Lady--I'm just doing my job."

"Well, sorry yourself. Your job sucks."

 

Perp walks, to Paparazzi stake-outs, grieving victims, and deer-in-the-headlights corrupt politicians; the news photographer is not always everyone's favorite pal.

 

We chased around Tanya Harding, when her photo was the Holy Grail of photojournalism. A decade later, she thanked me, for showing up once again as she turned herself in for another jail stint. Fame crossed with notoriety can still get you work as a snarky commentor on VH-1.

 

The portrait photographer usually works to please the subject, The photojournalist works to please the reader (that is, the editor, in reality). I had some editors who'd reject any photo where the subject was aware of the camera--"Look--they're looking, Right Into the Camera!" Blow Up!

Monday = RED

Color My World Daily

Frágil, vidros quebrados.

Glass broken.

that is how 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

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

 

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

"Fragile

dal profondo del mio inferno canto

fragile

dai miei sbagli e da un dolore da difendere

finché l'ultimo respiro stanco mi sorprenderà

così fragile"

Mina

When the wind blows,

can you feel it caress all your little pores

as it moves through you?

Be still,

fragile one,

while I hold you betwixt my gentle grasp

and freeze an image of you forever.

 

LIGHT BOX!!
