in order to visualize that translucent crop frame, RAW image was processed in DPP, cropping lines were adjusted there, and then the whole was captured using PrtScr on not too highly resolving monitor = hence the loss of sharpness (the original is OK, with plenty to spare, even if 40d has only 10 MPx sensor) ---

I'm not specialist on choir techniques, but I believe they were singing a single note, perhaps an "A-441", to synchronize their pitch, not sure about the role of their palms, though - all what I know is that the choirmaster wanted them to do it, and they were humming softly seemingly the same note (unfortunately, I do not have absolute ear, so can't tell what note exactly)

Jolies Filles

 

The prettiest girls

live on the other side of my street.

Rings all over their fingers,

promises of vague prattle.

 

Never affected, arms flapping,

they stay on the sidelines

to keep as quiet as possible…

Face and façade.

Nails varnished red

the colour of antique brick.

 

Ouhhhh, night has fallen.

Lalalala, night has fallen.

The women are stunning,

the shops are closed.

 

They pick up your gaze

like a track of forged iron,

they cut you short –

a cross-questioned ghost…

 

The girls in my street…

The walls of their houses

are as high as balconies.

The girls in my street…

 

You cast them a glance or two

when you see them passing…

 

Ouhhhh, night has fallen.

Lalalala, night has fallen.

The women are stunning,

the shops are closed.

Adieu

 

I have come to say goodbye

the others have gone on ahead and are waiting,

but your scent still lingers in the air.

 

I’ll take something with me nobody can say

since no one was as close as I feel you

as if you were here.

 

Do you remember when that evening came,

you lay in my arms so pale

you spoke very little and faded away

into the blue light.

 

I have come to say goodbye…

Everything you confided in me

as you lay in my arms,

all you said was ‘I want this night from you’.

 

I have come to say goodbye,

the others have gone on ahead and are waiting,

and now, seduced by you, I stay behind.

 

Take me with you, I’ll leave all this here,

you lead the way, I’ll follow you.

We’ll be back by nightfall.

 

So I did, as no one else can claim

as no one feels you inside them as I have done,

I touched myself.

 

Do you remember when the evening came…

Hubo un tiempo en el que por orden de l alcaldia se debia colocar una escultura a la entrada de los edificios nuevos, eso fracasó, seguramente porque el arte no puede ser un decreto. Estas esculturas están en la entrada del Hotel Punta Diamante en Ruitoque y no hacen parte de aquellas instaldas por ley.

Ifni

 

It’s so quiet as though she were alone,

she can’t fall asleep, she’s still wide awake.

Her pulse vibrates, she dreams her father is in

CHEZ SAID looking for something she doesn’t want.

 

Dalila, he says and looks at her,

loses his ground but pulls through.

You go to him, you need what he’ll give you.

He reaches for her hand:

 

IFNI, IFNI, touch her…

My smala expects me to do what

you’ll do to her tonight.

 

It is so quiet.

She’s counting time.

Her pulse vibrates,

she’s shivering with heat, can hardly see.

Is Sidi Ifni there?

 

Dalila, someone whispers to her from close to,

she can’t fall asleep, she’s losing her ground.

Mist is rising – night gradually comes to life,

her hands are still twitching,

she no longer knows what happened.

 

IFNI, IFNI, touch me…

how can we portray the main characteristic of a dancer, esp. when it is not a solo dance, but rather pairs, like here? After all what defines dancers, their personality, is to dance, their motion. And yet we need to have a good face as well. So when it is enough? Is this already a portrait??

 

Also, there still is that [rather dated] concept that a portraits need immobilized sitters, who "pose" - it is so very pervasive EVEN TODAY, and yet that prejudice originated in the first half of XIX c. just after introduction of the daguerreotype process (actually much earlier than this - in a painter's studio, where "sitting" was indeed the only option for an artist in the pre-impressionists era :) although, as many painters' sketchbooks amply bear witness, the best of them did capture motion and movement of their impressions of "sitters" to enliven their oils or pastels with a much more natural looking scenes, later-on... in a solitude of their studios ) ----

Absolutely Me

 

Clear the way boys

The lady has arrived

All you handsome fellas

Please wait for me to the right

 

Don't keep me waiting

Ooh, thank you for the drink

It's quarter past eleven

I'm not in the mood to think

 

Mr. band leader

Let's kick out the jam

Gimme something that'll light it up

And make my feet go bam bam bam!

 

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Are impossible you see

But when it gets to Friday

What'cha get is absolutely me

 

Sweeter than the candy

About to caress my lips

Imagine all the sugar

When I start to shake my hips

 

It's not an illusion

I'm as live as I can be

Instead of all your promises

Why don't you show all your charms to me

 

Mr. Band Leader

The arrangement has to change

Gimme something light it up

Won't'cha let the boogie start to play

 

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Are impossible you see

But when it gets to Friday

What'cha get is absolutely me

 

I said Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Are impossible you see

But when it gets to Friday

What'cha get is absolutely me

 

I don't want a serenade

To hear you say a thing

All I need is your attention

And a 10 karat diamond ring

 

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

Are impossible you see

But when it gets to Friday

What'cha get is absolutely me

Monterey Peninsula Country Club Shore Course

030/365

I have never hit a hole in one, although I have sank 3 from the fairway from over 150 yards, all three with the same club, my trusty 9-iron. 2 eagles and a birdie. Still waiting on the Ace though

Or: Two Kinds of Small-Scale Perfection.

A "hole-in one" is a perfect golf score--a ball struck just once at the tee ending up in the distant cup. Here, some creature has made an almost-perfect hole-in-one of another kind. (If you know the likely creator, please share.)

My eye (and maybe yours) goes back and forth between the perfection of the hole-in-one and the perfection of the tiny sprig of blossoms (Lily of the Valley = Muguet).

Location: Riehen BS Switzerland.

See-through Mirror

 

Beyond all facets

deep in all there is

the one engulfs all

And on the fertile bedrock

silence envelopes sound

 

And on the fertile bedrock

secrets are kept without words

and the divine spirit

permeates everything

All is one just seeming diverse

 

Just a see-through mirror

you and I

All that is left

You and I

 

And it is unknown

Only time will tell

whether your soul lit distances

You will always know your way back

You will always know your way back

You will always know that you'd be back

 

Just a see-through mirror…

you and I…

Christmas gift from my sweetie!

  

An artist friend (painter, musician and performer) Gustavo the fire juggler performing on the roof-top (golf) driving range at the "Hole in One", Ajijic, Mexico. I did tell him after the performance that he should not be doing this with his hair untied and flying in the wind - Gee - how dangerous !!!

This 5 wood is quickly becoming one of my favourite clubs. At the moment it can do no wrong - including posing for photos.
