There is (much) joy in discovering something or someone really good.
It's not that they were hiding of course...but they're just new to you.
This is a portrait of Rokia Traoré in concert at The Usher Hall in Edinburgh earlier this evening.
In my case, I "discovered" her while attending/photographing the WOMAD Festival last year.
When you hear her speak...her voice seems really fragile...very delicate...but when she sings...oh...what a voice!
Rokia is just superb...and very expressive (always a boon for photographers).
The first two songs (of the three I could shoot for) were lit at very low levels...but it perked up a bit for the third song...this was taken at a comfortable (?) ISO 6400...and was actually the last shot I took this evening.
Oh...and I've applied NO noise reduction to this shot...the Canon 5D Mark II is great in low light conditions. J'ai eu le courage de ne rien faire! :-)
You can see more shots of Rokia in my Rokia Traoré set.
You can hear some of her music here:
My thanks are due to Alex Hewitt from The Scotsman and Victoria Fuller from The Usher Hall for arranging my photo pass.
Beaverdams Pond
Fragile papershells from Beaverdams Pond. The largest one still had the deceased animal inside and almost certainly perished from exposure/freezing, it shell was damaged extracting it from the frozen mud. Of the three small ones, two are very fresh and one (middle one) is fairly fresh.
The sun made these tulips look like they're made out of glass, and seemingly fragile. It's one of my favorite pictures taken at the Keukenhof this year around.
Taken @ Keukenhof, Lisse 2015 (Netherlands).
While I was taking a walk in the sun today, this little leaf feel onto my shoe (yes, I walk that slow).

We, humans, are fragile beings. We are easily overwhelmed by strong emotions of anger, anxiety, depression and so on, and exit out of it seems too narrow. The fragility is often expressed in forms of violence. Such act only leaves scratches, dirts and dusts in, on, and around ourselves.

I am trying to make viewers feel uncomfortable.
During the 10 seconds of open shutter, hand was still for about 3 seconds, moved back and forth trembling the board for about 5 seconds, and came back to the original spot for the remaining time.
Brought out the textures of scratches and sawdusts as much as I could in PP.

While I love this long necklace, it breaks nearly every time I wear it. I’m not much of a crafter, so repairing it is a pain.
To keep this fragile necklace intact, I usually put it in my pocket for my commute and any activity more vigorous than a walk to the restroom. I managed to NOT break it on this wearing!

On July 25, 2011, ICESCAPE scientists packed up fragile lab equipment as the icebreaker ship steamed home after finishing collecting science data.
The ICESCAPE mission, or "Impacts of Climate on Ecosystems and Chemistry of the Arctic Pacific Environment," is NASA's two-year shipborne investigation to study how changing conditions in the Arctic affect the ocean's chemistry and ecosystems. The bulk of the research takes place in the Beaufort and Chukchi seas in summer 2010 and 2011.

“My own understanding is the sole treasure I possess, and the greatest. Though infinitely small and fragile in comparison with the powers of darkness, it is still a light, my only light.”
Don't ask me why i am pouting, it seems to be a new thing, a new model thing extra for my flickr friends :).
Texture as usual from les brumes
Whenever I open one of these old watches, I feel how fragile we and our creations are. One tiny bit of dust, a little spot of rust, some stress on the wrong spot and everything will stop working.
We are not much different than this watch.
We are fragile.
The earth, the animals, the birds, the fish, the people.
We are all fragile.
Let's take better care.

The image shows a still from a 3D laser scanning record from Zuñiga, a heritage area in Chile affected by an earthquake in 2010. 3d laser scanning is an accurate technology that can record the built environment as a point cloud in a short period of time with precision of millimetres. The image was composed using the scans from inside a traditional dwelling in that area that continues damaged after the mentioned seismic event, although inhabited. The scans were taken from both interior and exterior spaces. The transparency of the image allows seeing the interior space, giving a fragile aesthetics of buildings that are at are endangered by earthquakes
