Light-enchanted sunflower, thou Who gazest ever true and tender On the sun's revolving splendour.
Pedro Calderon de la Barca
True friends are like bright sunflowers that never fade away, even over distance and time.
Marie Williams Johnstone
Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. It's what sunflowers do.
Helen Keller
Eagle of flowers! I see thee stand, And on the sun's noon-glory gaze; With eye like his, thy lids expand, And fringe their disk with golden rays: Though fix'd on earth, in darkness rooted there, Light is thy element, thy dwelling air, Thy prospect heaven.
James Montgomery
Ah Sunflower
Ah, Sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun;
Seeking after that sweet golden clime,
Where the traveller's journal done;
Where the youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves, and aspire
Where my Sunflower wishes to go!
William Blake
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
Continuing with my Positive Flags of the Nations project. This is dedicated to the sun, the warmth it exudes, the bright colours it creates and it gives us the ability to see during the day and enjoy the outside.
Keep your face to the sun and you will never see the shadows.

What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.

"Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye."
Quote - Helen Keller
I saw these showcases during an exhibition and I got distracted by the light, the shadow and the reflection. I flipped this original picture btw and converted it to blue., As it is Sliders Sunday.
They were part of "Materialism" , which is an ongoing research project and series of installations by DRIFT, that confronts viewers with the raw materials needed to make everyday objects. You can see them hanging now at the ceiling. The work invites reflection on how we use the raw materials at our disposal and whether things can be done differently.
I have to go back and make more photos, this time of the real subject(s).
One more daffy pic construction from yesterday's photoplay session! Used this verse on a sympathy card . . .
"What we have once enjoyed we can never lose.
All that we LOVE deeply becomes a part of us."

Logic will get you from A to B.
Imagination will take you everywhere. - Albert Einstein
Laughter is timeless.
Imagination has no age.
Dreams are forever. - J.M. Barrie,

Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead. - Louisa May Alcott

Once I knew the depth where no hope was,
and darkness lay on the face of all things.
Then love came and set my soul free.
Once I knew only darkness and stillness.
Now I know hope and joy.
Once I fretted and beat myself
against the wall that shut me in.
Now I rejoice in the consciousness
that I can think, act and attain heaven...
by Helen Keller (1880 - 1968)
Love recognizes no barriers.
Maya Angelou
There is no charm equal to tenderness of heart.

Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.

I managed to stay at the exclusive Kovalam Guest House perched majestically on the top of a cliff and located at one end of the Kovalam beach. This forms the northern headland for the long stretch of Kovalam beach.
As elsewhere in the world, the beach is always a crowded area. The rock cliff of the property was a wonderful place to spend a lazy evening . It is a beautiful experience,
the crash and the roar of the Arabian Sea as it hammers the rock faces in its ceaseless rhythmic cycle of waves.
It was in school one learnt lessons in geography of how rains were made. This was one rare occasion where I got to see the black clouds gather in minutes and take an ominous shape of a violent storm seething with ominous intent. However, in minutes, the storm vanished.
The sun was out again. A commercial jet wound its way up in the skies.
The waves started thundering again.
Back to normal !!!
Sunflowers may remind us of Vincent van Gogh and vibrant yellow colors etc. But to Helen Keller, these mean much more...as expressed in her quote above...unfortunately this deafblind author couldn't see their shadows regardless.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.

Our uniqueness, our individuality, and our life experience molds us into fascinating beings. I hope we can embrace that.
