We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun, where the hot springs flow
The hammer of the gods
W'ell drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde, and sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming!
Wishing you all a very happy Sunday!!!
When I saw this stairway with this golden light, the song "Stairway To Heaven" by Led Zeppelin came immediately across my mind.
"Stairway To Heaven"- lyrics:
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune,
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long,
And the forests will echo with laughter.
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.
Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

AU SOMMET DU GENTIL GÉANT *
Entre ciel et terre…
Le sommet du Gentil Géant.
Une étendue de silence glacée
Aucun signe de l’univers artificiel humain
Pas même de végétation
Si peu de rochers.
Une nature brute qui défie les repères humains,
Un monde de contes fantastiques,
De ceux qui habitent l’imaginaire des enfants,
Ces univers impossibles où l’on rêve pourtant de vivre.
Mais pour quelles raisons voudrait-on vivre ici?… Sinon pour passer un moment inoubliable avec soi-même? …Où tourner une suite au film du Magicien d’OZ?
Parce que, devant moi, dans cet amas nuageux, l’Univers vient à ma rencontre
Et il se moque pas mal de mes états d’âme…
J’entends mon esprit m’implorer de fuir!
Je cherche, en vain, les mots justes
Pour décrire l’intensité de ce monde féérique et tragique à la fois
Mais lentement, dans ma tête, un air familier fait son chemin…
Led Zeppelin chante Stairway to heaven.
Prémonitoire non? Je gravi lentement cet escalier…
…Et il est hors de question que je rate la suite!

Merci à Sylvain Tesson, écrivain et explorateur pour ses récits de vie incomparables, à ceux qui consacrent leurs talents à l’émerveillement des enfants (Le Magicien d’Oz…) ainsi qu’à Gentle Giant et Led Zeppelin, deux groupes rock légendaires qui, eux aussi, ont émerveillé une génération. Aucun d’entre eux n’aurait imaginé, un jour, partager une même scène avec les autres!- Patrice

ON THE GENTLE GIANT SUMMIT *
Between heaven and earth…
The summit of the Gentle Giant.
An expanse of frozen silence
No sign of the human artificial universe
Not even vegetation
So few rocks.
A raw nature that defies human landmarks.
A world of fantastic tales,
From those who inhabit the imagination of children.
These impossible universes in which we dream of living.
But for what reasons would one want to live here?… If not to spend an unforgettable moment with oneself? ... Where to shoot a sequel to the Wizard of OZ movie?
Because, in front of me, in this cloudy cluster, the Universe is coming to meet me
And he doesn't care about my moods ...
I hear my spirit begging me to run away!
I search in vain for the right words
To describe the intensity of this magical and tragic world at the same time
But slowly in my head a familiar tune makes its way
Led Zeppelin sings Stairway to heaven.
Premonitory, isn't it? I slowly climbed this staircase ...
… And there is no way I will miss the rest!

Someone told me there’s a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair

For 7 Days of Shooting, a macro that reflects a song, Hmm how about Led Zeppelin the Immigrant Song,
"We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun, where the hot springs flow
The hammer of the gods
W'ell drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde, and sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming!"

"handle with care" - Macro Mondays 26.09.2016. Zu sehen eine seltene Led Zeppelin Platte... da sollte man auf jeden fall vorsichtig sein...
The rock platform at Barangaroo, Sydney.
Near Millers Point and the Walsh Bay Wharf Precinct.
This is the view looking east to the bridge at sunset.
The rocks take on a red glow from the sun setting over Darling Harbour.
You can park the car on Merriman Street, where there is generally parking in the late afternoon. And by that time of the day the parking rangers have disappeared. So you can then walk down to the harbour via Barangaroo Reserve.
Avoid walking on the black coloured rocks (as I discovered) because then you can rock - and roll into the harbour, lol.
And so here's Led Zeppelin with the ever brilliant classic 'Rock And Roll' from Led Zeppelin 4.

Stairway to heaven.

Whew, what a relief! The last of my spoon series :) Just kidding, I really enjoyed doing it. Hope you enjoyed viewing them.
I'm sure many of you can figure out where the title of this image comes from. If not, well, here it is:
The spoon is sitting on a music sheet - Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven. Multi coloured fairy lights are in the background.
Shot with Oreston 50mm and 12mm Kenko extension tube.
#6 of spoon series.
Built for "Round 2" of Bio-Cup 2022.
Theme: Numerically!
Sub-Theme: 9
Took inspiration from the The Hermit tarot card, number IX (9) of the Major Arcana... and muse of the Led Zeppelin ZOSO album.
EDIT: Ah, what the heck. I'll go ahead and double-dip and enter it into the "Going Big" category of Summer Joust 2022 as well.
Some of you may remember this portrait of my Mum that I posted last year. It was suggested at the time by my Flickr friend Stu (Stumayhew) that it would be interesting at some point to do something with the squares. I was inspired recently by a friend’s collection of the Led Zeppelin album, ‘In Through The Out Door’ and how important music is in our lives, how it evokes memories and stimulates our imagination. There are 6 alternate covers which you wil see, designed by HIPGNOSIS.
Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti building that appeared on the cover of the album. In the same style of the album cover, for what I've could do. East Village, NY City 2013

Another shot of those whimsical parasols in the lobby of The Palazzo. I purposely underexposed this to bring out the color of the umbrellas. This is just an alternate view of the first umbrella shot I posted earier-- one of my favorite photos from our Las Vegas trip (below).
I took this photo of Robert Plant on June 10, 1977 at Madison Square Garden, NYC. Back then I was able to talk my way towards the stage and fire off a few shots with my trusty Minolta 35mm film camera.
"And as we wind on down the road our shadows taller than our soul. There walks a lady we all know who shines white light and wants to show how everything still turns to gold. And if you listen very hard the tune will come to you at last. When all are one and one is all to be a rock and not to roll. And she's buying a stairway to heaven." Led Zeppelin
When I saw these stairs, I knew what it had to be immediately.
I decided to do a series using spoons, so here is the first one. I tried using my spoons but they all had tiny scratches on them, so I went out and bought a spoon for this purpose.
Here, I've laid the spoon on a sheet of music (Led Zeppelin), but I don't remember what song it was. If you can guess from the three words on the image, you win! :) I darkened the letters somewhat so they were more readable.
Inside the spoon is a crystal, the same one I placed in front of my lens on my image, "Bewitched Floral Waltz."
I went for a high key look here, something I rarely do.
Shot with Jena Pancolar 50mm f1.8, and 20mm ext tube.
