" aveva tanta sete che la sua pelle avrebbe potuto prosciugare le nuvole
aveva camminato così tanto che il suo sudore avrebbe potuto irrigare un deserto
aveva parlato troppo, guardato troppo, scritto troppe parole e disegnato troppi pensieri nel cielo
aveva bruciato troppe volte la sua stessa gola vomitando la rabbia che qualcun'altro gli aveva iniettato come un virus subdolo nel cervello
si era perso in troppi abbracci impossibili, ed ogni volta era una goccia di emozione che evaporava nell'aria
ed ogni volta era un grammo d'amore che sublimava, un cristallo di gioia che andava in frantumi e diventava polvere
ed ora era disidratato
cercava l'acqua negli occhi distratti di chi gli stava intorno, che invece era occupato a trattenerla per sé, a non disperdere la sua
cercava l'acqua nelle parole non ricambiate, lungo strade sempre più straniere, polverose anche quando pioveva
cercava l'acqua nel vento di un inverno che sembrava non finire mai, e che non portava alcuna riposta se non un sibilo tagliente che gli seccava la pelle ancora di più. e che gli scorticava le mani e i pensieri
ed ora cominciava a detestare perfino la luce
quella luce che metteva in risalto superficie scabra del suo corpo, e la faceva bruciare
quella luce così fredda, così oggettiva, così distaccata.
quella luce che gli era stata amica, e ora graffiava la sua pelle e lasciava segni indelebili, ferite che gli sembravano incurabili
ed ora cominciava a cercare il buio, visto che di acqua non ce n'era più da nessuna parte e che la luce non gli era più amica
un buio tiepido, se esisteva, un buio da rubare alla notte di qualche innamorato, e da tenere con sé finché qualcuno non si fosse accorto della sua sete.
un buio in cui avvolgersi, in cui trovar posto , dove costruire un nido piccolo ed accogliente
un buio dove far riposare le gambe, gli occhi e il cuore
un buio dove poter tornare ogni volta che avrebbe avuto sete di luce amica, in futuro
un buio da chiamare casa "

Light Play
“Without the play of light, form is inert and space becomes static; I would like to think that when I design buildings light is one of my first considerations”, remarked leoh Ming Pei in a conversation with writer Gero von Boehm. (1).
The 101 year old Chinese-American modernist architect I. M. Pei, endured a roasting from critics before the giant glass structure opened in 1989, with up to 90 percent of Parisians said to be against the project at one point. « I received many angry glances in the streets of Paris," Pei later said, confessing that "after the Louvre I thought no project would be too difficult ».(2).
« By copying the 51-degree angle of the Great Pyramid at Giza, Pei reproduced a famous icon and symbolically reinforced the Grand Louvre’s pursuit of high culture. At the same time he modernized the antique symbol with transparent glass. Providing a counterpoint to the iconic main pyramid, Pei also added an inverse pyramid and surrounded them with grass and water, intensifying the Egyptian metaphors of life and death. However, from a functional point of view, Pei sought a solution in which he could create an optically minimal volume in the main courtyard for the new entrance, respecting the existing buildings. During the daytime, the sides of the central pyramid reflect the sky. The surrounding water creates a reflecting pool, underlining Pei’s desire to create a light atmosphere and to dematerialize the Egyptian symbol. Even from the underground entrance, visitors can enjoy the view to the surrounding historical Louvre facades. The filigree construction on the underside has turned the icon into a high-tech element, and at night the pyramid appears like an urban jewel in the city of Paris. » (1).
Interestingly, Pei was in the news earlier this week (17 October 2018) when he became the victim of a celebrity death hoax claiming that the 101 year old architect had passed away. Happily, this is not the case and Pei is still very much alive (3).
Happy Window Wednesday!

Taming Light #18
Many of you think that these light refraction patterns look like underwater creatures, particularly jellyfish - so I thought I'd try to create one in light. On the the other hand you could be forgiven for thinking it looks more like a three legged 'octopus' wearing a red hat. :)
New viewers; these are analogue images captured on film of light shining through transparent objects that I create in plastics. This is lensless photography - the object takes the place of the lens in the camera.

Light is the best painter. This was early morning on our way down from Moses Mountain (Sinai, Egypt). This what you can see was just waiting aside to be shot. Side hard light painted the surface so perfect.
Please have a look at Large On Black. Really :)
Well I can't seem to get enough of Vermi! When the sun hits him just right, he is like a burning torch!
Thank you everyone for your messages etc. about the problems I'm having with my arm. It's a lot better already... although there's a long way to go yet before I'll be able to play with the camera and/or photoshoppping etc... so I'm sticking to a few old SOOC shots for the moment.
I'm trying to keep up as much as I can... although I still can't comment as much as I'd like.
Hope you're all having a great weekend, wherever you are!!
NB: Questo non e' un particolare ritagliato della foto precedente , ma e' proprio tutto un altro scatto con tutt'altri simbolismi-emozioni-pensieri !!!

So I think I finally came up with a name for this guy. Æther. It's the name of the greek god of the upper air and light, as a supposed fifth element in classical alchemy. Also Ash (Æ) is one of my favorite letters!
This was such a rushed photo. I had forgot to charge my battery so I had to get everything before the 3% that was left on my battery ran out. But I guess I would have had to rush anyway to makesure I didn't lose the light.
We have a Magnolia tree in our garden. The sun sets behind it and I loved the way the light shows up the hairs on it.
Virginia - farmer's wooden shed totally engulfed by direct early-morning sunlight, and the ground fog stirred up by the light.......
Discovered this set at a studio shoot several weeks ago. Shot with the Sigma 50 1.4 Art on a Nikon D810 and lit by a Profoto D1 with Softlight Reflector White. Postprocessed into a more vintage look...
