Immagine tratta dal Racconto Reportage ”Vite Vissute, ……Vite Abbandonate”
.
"Un racconto reportage che è stato effettuato presso alcune case di cura dove queste persone spesso vengono lasciati e dimenticati, presso le loro abitazioni, negli ospedali (questa nell'Ospedale Psichiatrico di via Pindemonte a Palermo-Sicilia- "quando ancora era operativo"), in alcune comunità che accolgono questi anziani in quanto dimenticati dai figli e parenti e soprattutto per strada."

Per questa immagine ho scritto:
.
Il viale delle foglie che cantano
.
Fra la fitta nebbia e l’albeggiar
d’una fredda mattina autunnale
nelle inquiete penombre
di un viale d’alberi secolari
s’ode un fil di voce lamentare e
lunghi pianti singhiozzare.
A piedi nudi e passo incerto
coperta da un lercio
e fiorito abitino…
vaga, quasi danzando,
da sola una minuta bambina
fra le fredde lastre del viale.
Non lontan da lei
c’è un “angelo custode”
che,…fra le umide panchine e
le cadute foglie rinsecchite,
acquattato, fa capolino a vegliar
l’incerto volteggiar
e solitario vagar
di quell’anima solitaria.
Tutt’un tratto si ferma e
immobile rimane,
abbandonate e dritte
le sue esili braccia al corpicino
col capo chino a guardar
dei suoi piedini scalzi
le dita giocherellare fra
le foglie secche scricchiolare.
Pian pianino mi avvicino e…
fermo li rimane,
quell”angelo custode”
mi scruta ma mi lascia passare.
Rivolgo a lei la parola ma…
sorridente e con voce soffusa
mi dice: SSsss….le senti?, parlano con me,
cantano le foglie del viale
sono le mie foglie incantate.
Rimango intontito e mi commuovo
impaurito mi giro verso….
un forte fruscio di foglie dal vento spazzate
in cerca di qualcuno, di un parente
di una madre che mi possa spiegare.
Ma ad un tratto il silenzio diventa tombale
non c’è più nessuno, tuto è svanito,
anche quell”angelo custode” è volato
rimango solo io in quel freddo e lugubre viale.

The avenue of singing leaves
.
Between the thick fog and the dawn
of a cold autumn morning
in the restless shadows
of an avenue of centuries-old trees
you can hear a thread of a voice lamenting
and long sobbing cries.
Barefoot and with an uncertain step
covered by a dirty
and flowery dress…
a tiny little girl wanders, almost dancing,
alone
among the cold flagstones of the avenue.
Not far from her
there is a “guardian angel”
who,…between the damp benches and
the fallen dried leaves,
crouching, peeps out to watch
over the uncertain whirling
and solitary wandering
of that solitary soul.
Suddenly she stops and
remains still,
her slender arms stretched out and straight
her head bowed to watch
her bare feet
her fingers playing among
the dry leaves crackling.
I slowly approach her and...
she remains still there,
that "guardian angel"
scrutinizes me but lets me pass.
I address her but...
smiling and with a soft voice
she says to me: SSsss....can you hear them?, they are talking to me,
the leaves of the avenue are singing
they are my enchanted leaves.
I remain stunned and moved
frightened I turn towards...
a loud rustling of leaves swept by the wind
looking for someone, a relative
a mother who can explain to me.
But suddenly the silence becomes deathly
there is no one left, everything has vanished,
even that “guardian angel” has flown
I am the only one left in that cold and gloomy avenue.
……………………………………….……..Luigi Mirto..

Tratto da una situazione reale verificatosi mentre ero in giro per effettuare delle foto per questa esposizione. Ripresa presso l'EX Ospedale Psichiatrico di Palermo di via Gaetano La Loggia in una cupa mattina autunnale.
.
Vincitrice di diversi concorsi in Italia ed all'estero fa parte del reportage “Vite vissute,…vite abbandonate” realizzato qualche anno fa e presentato in diverse esposizione fra cui all”International Museum Art Gallery of Photography New York 2013” aggiudicandosi il 2° Premio e al “Gallery Marchandise Museun Art of Photography Chicago 2012” ottenendo una Menzione d’Onore. Ho presentato anche alcune immagini singole a diversi concorsi ottenendo molti riconoscimenti e premi

Taken from a real situation that occurred while I was out taking photos for this exhibition. Taken at the EX Psychiatric Hospital of Palermo in via Gaetano La Loggia on a dark autumn morning.
.
Winner of several competitions in Italy and abroad, it is part of the reportage “Vite vissute, …vite abbandono” made a few years ago and presented in several exhibitions including the “International Museum Art Gallery of Photography New York 2013” winning 2nd Prize and the “Gallery Marchandise Museun Art of Photography Chicago 2012” obtaining an Honorable Mention. I have also presented some single images to several competitions obtaining many awards and prizes.
.
It is only mid-June and in going over photos already taken this month I am overwhelmed by the volume and the task of deciding which I might upload. This happens every spring, perhaps explained by this image....a simple look at a feature of a type found throughout the woodlands. Every walk or venture out on the lake yields endless photo ops and by the time I get back, I find I have inevitably taken between 50-100 shots. I probably have many years of accumulation which I have never properly looked at because the next day adds to the volume.
This is the time of year when the green is stunning in its perfection. Even using the magnifier, which I encourage, I challenge you to wander the woods and try to spot even a touch of brown on any of the fresh and perfect growth. And with blue skies peeking through the canopy, all one can do is breathe deep and be grateful.

As an aside, I was happy to see Flickr reactivated the note function lost for no apparent reason in all the changes a few years ago. While I never abused it, it could be useful in a number of ways.

Decorating The Tree......
Thanksgiving is out of the way and the snow is falling. what better day to put up the Christmas tree. for a photographer this is the opportunity to take photos of all the decorations. this is a shot of a golden glass ball. then made it black and white for fun.
Thank you for visiting for marking my photo as a favourite and for the kind comments,

Dance fly - Empis tessellata.
I was scanning the philadelphus aureus through my magnifier on the back of the screen hoping to find some pleasing contrast when this chap landed right where I was pointed, I quickly took a shot in case he disappeared which is just as well because he did, just there for an instant - luckily it was in decent focus and the sun at a nice angle, bright and from my right making all the pollen on him sparkle enough to give sleepless nights. Chuckle.
Unless my wife finds them for me this is the only way I ever catch flies and other insects, they are either there already on the flower when I go to it, or they land when I am in the process. Bees and buzzers are a bit different as I can sort of track them with my ears
Curculio fraudator (also called C. simulator) —one of the snappiest dressers on Sydney’s notoriously snooty weevil scene. —————————————— Single outdoor handheld shot, with an Olympus em5 mkii, 60mm M.Zuiko lens, Raynox DCR-250 magnifier. F11, ISO 200, shutter 1/200. Meike MK320, DIY Diffuser. RAW-LR6-Topaz Apps

Shot for Our Daily Challenge :“Microscopic”
Pittosporum Japonica Gold Star
Tiny, beautifully scented little flowers with a perfume which seems to get stronger when the sun has gone down. I guess in its native environment these shrubs would grow into small trees, but here they are not natively hardy and have to be over wintered with care. This is a small shrub in a pot and the flowers are so small and tucked away my wife has to locate them for me, and even then through my 20x magnifier I still can't find them so she had to keep her finger right next to this one!
Taken at almost max magnification, then in apsc mode for another 50%, and with a crop.
The sky was darkening and I wanted to take a photo of the mountains under the lowering cloud. I was trying to locate them through my 20x magnifier on the back of the LCD screen when the sun popped its head out and dramatically lit up this cloud, so I decided to photograph that instead. I had no idea I had caught the tops of the mountains at all and even wehn I uploaded to the big screen at home it was quite some time before I realised. Chuckle. Rather glad I did though for as you can see there are plenty of tiny sheep happily grazing over there.....
For the ~ Abstract ~ challenge over at The Award Tree.
Three photos captured during my wanderings in 2019, of which I will be revisiting in a week's time.
Detailed viewing with the magnifier is soopa cool.

Da Ascoltare leggendo le parole

.
prima del tempo
.
ho tanto sofferto
li, dove nasce ogni mio gesto
ogni mio pensiero
la mia voce.
Non provo più dolore
e….son passati giorni,
infiniti anni.
Nella cupa notte
tornano le cattive ombre,
oscure tenebre mi avvolgono
gelidi si fanno i miei pensieri.
Silenziosi e angoscianti
sono i pianti,
lacrime amare
che….sanno di fiele,
dove il nulla regna
nell'immensità della vita.
Sulle orme del mio sentiero
la morte arriverà prima del tempo
e quella goccia di rugiada che
scivola fra i solchi dal mio viso,
inesorabilmente si dissolverà.
…………………………..Luigi Mirto
.
.
before its time
.
I have suffered so much
there, where every gesture of mine is born
every thought of mine
my voice.
I feel no more pain
and... days have passed,
infinite years.
In the dark night
the evil shadows return,
dark darkness envelops me
my thoughts grow cold.
Silent and anguished
are the cries,
bitter tears
that...taste of gall,
where nothingness reigns
in the immensity of life.
In the footsteps of my path,
death will come before its time
and that drop of dew that
slips between the furrows from my face
will inexorably dissolve.
…………………………..Luigi Mirto

hanging from the wall of the devil's lair
are the robes of many a good intentioned priest
who thought that half truths told today
could become full truths come what may
forward thinking built on shifting sands
pointing to other lands
words with good meanings
in a world of half truths
end up half lies sitting in the roust.
which half do you want
which part makes you desire
your heart is on fire, your brain a magnifier
turning heat into flames
welcoming you to the world of darkness.
When i was grovelling in the woods over a week ago for my first Bluebell shot of the season I have to admit age and some limitations didn't help but I do love vintage bokeh though was finding it extra difficult.. Jonathan bought this lens for my birthday which incidentally is today, because I had looked at many reviews and thought the auto focus might help in this new lens, length 135mm f/1.8.. It was ordered one day and delivered the next and in time for me to test that is was fine. So the other day when i went the first of two short walks. I was able with the Sony A7RM3 to auto focus on the flower I wished, I then had the facility to override the auto focus using manual focus DMF in the camera settings and also bought up the focus magnifier to tweak where I wanted it sharp. It definitely is not vintage but I personally still loved the painterly bokeh I was able to get but with a little help initially from the auto focus ability of the lens. The new lens is a Samyang 135mm f1.8 and I will hopefully get some portrait shots too which is one of its main strengths but I don’t use any lens conventionally tbh….
Built 1860 on Sainte Catherine in Montreal. This is my favourite church in Montreal. It takes my breath away every time I see it.<3 View it large and use the magnifier, see every gargoyle and every stone.
There’s a story behind this one so I decided to put it up.
For almost 4 years now old Magoo has been trying to capture one of the red kite birds that leisurely circle over our house on a regular basis and he’s failed miserably! Hundreds and hundreds of attempts and not a single one deserving of putting up. Four years. Sigh. Chuckle.
These fighter jets on the other hand, occasionally pass over and nothing about them is leisurely, you hear them coming at a terrific rate of knots , they are on you with a roar and then whoosh - gone. I’ve never had a camera with me when they do - or not with the right lens anyhow. But on this day I did have and was in a good place in the garden.
I heard it coming, no time to lift my 20x magnifier, no time to think or check aperture or exposure, I just turned towards the noise and then it was on me, unseen but without thinking I guessed at height and direction and spun around to get ahead of it, paused an instant and then hit the shutter button - one shot. No time to see if I had been unbelievably lucky for there was another one coming. I quickly turned towards it, made the same guess, spun ahead, paused and fired! Again, one shot.
I lifted up my 20x magnifier to take a look and see what if anything I had - the shots were taken so I knew I had clouds but I was beyond flabbergasted to discover I had caught the very fast moving jet not once, but twice. Honestly, I stood there stunned, it seemed….insane. It still does. Of course I didn’t know if they were sharp or blurred I can never tell even with the 20x but as you can see it was sharp, they both were.
Two shots, two hits on the lightening fast jet I think earns Magoo the title of ‘Topgun’ on this occasion at least, whilst my attempts at the slow moving kites earn me an empty water pistol award. Hopefully, I’ll be successful one day but until then these two photos give me cause for optimism and still raise a bemused and amazed smile and quite a bit of head scratching:^)
My dad was an ophthalmology professor and was the director of the optics course for the eye surgeons in training at Washington, DC. He always wanted to teach me about the practical applications of optics; this meant cameras, microscopes, telescopes, harnessing the Sun with magnifying glasses - on and on. One of our favorites was the Arthur Seibert Emoscop. He had ordered one for both of us and we played together with these for hours on end. He was not much for playing catch or soccer, but we had a lot of quality time examining the unseen world. He often carried a Minox subminiature spy camera with him so many of my childhood photos were on microfilm 😂.
The Emoscop came in very handy for reviewing these Minox negatives!
Seibert Emoscop made in Wetzlar, Germany 1950s - 60s
"The three parts are combined to give a telescope of 2.5x, magnifications of 5x, 10x,15x and a microscope of 25x and 30x.
The top and middle pieces (see photograph above) are combined to give an adjustable 2.5x telescope.
The middle piece is a 5x magnifier.
The bottom piece (far right) is a 10x magnifier.
Middle and bottom combine to give 15x magnification.
All three combine to give 25x microscope. By pulling the ocular out of the objective tube magnifications between 25x and 30x can be obtained. The ocular is itself a x5 magnifier when viewed through the tube.
When used as a microscope the working distance is 24mm from the object."
Les objectifs à très grandes ouvertures, souvent appelés les “bokeh masters”, font rêver. Ultra lumineux, ils permettent de travailler en basse lumière, créer une profondeur de champ très réduite et magnifier un sujet en développant un flou en avant/arrière très prononcé.
°°°°°°°°°°°
Very wide aperture lenses, often called “bokeh masters”, are the stuff of dreams. Ultra-bright, they allow you to work in low light, create a very shallow depth of field and magnify a subject by developing a very pronounced front-to-back blur.

I made use of another feather, thank you Mr Seagull.
I used a water sprayer to put a fine mist onto the feather and used the crop 1.6 setting on the R5 which acts just like an APSC sensor. Went out for sunrise in the mist this morning oh was it good pics to come in due course .

Employed here is Klaus Opdenkelder's patented 'Swing-the-camera-on-the-tripod-to-my-Lou-my-darling' method. If interested, another example of this highly sought after technique can be found in the first comment box below.
Detailed viewing with the magnifier is kinda cool, if that's your sorta thing.
Every May, just outside my kitchen window where I sometimes sit at my laptop, there appear a colony of these giant red poppies that flower for perhaps 5 or 6 weeks. They are enormous and their vibrant reds dominate their less extravagant neighbours. Those bright reds tug at me incessantly, until I inevitably succumb to their charms and pick up my camera to spend some time with them. How many pictures I've taken of them this year I do not know. Lots. Most shots are deleted within 5 minutes of being taken but one or two demand to be seen by a wider audience. This one definitely fits that bill!

Umm... this is getting a little weird. First, I want to say that, Richard and I have not pre-alerted each other to any forthKcoming images or King Crimson song seleKctions, with the exception of the third set and in that partiKcular case, even though he forewarned me that he was going to use Schizoid Man, I had already decided I would use In The Court... from the same album. However, in wanting to somewhat match his song selection, I moved my fourth image up to third, consequently moving this one to fourth. I have been putting the link to his entries last in the narrative but, it might be appropriate for me to stick it here:
Here is a link to Richard's corresponding fourth entry:
The King Crimson Series: Fracture
Both images with a PANO-Vision sabotaged building... not so unusual for him, of course but, nothing I had come close to in the three previous entries. Gets stranger though... song choice from the young lad - Fracture from the Starless and Bible Black album! I have been putting the link to my musiKcal choice a little later in the narrative but, it might be appropriate for me to stick it here:
My song for this was already picked from the construKction of light album. Okay, so maybe not earthshatteringly strange or eerie but, a rather quirky sort of synergy going on that makes one wonder, I would think. S'pose though, that's if one goes in to wondering about these type of things at all, otherwise it's probably just a coincidence and leave it at that. Hmm... maybe? Still one more entry to go.

I don’t suppose the old Helios lens that I used to shoot this with was aimed particularly at the macro photographer but with a magnifying lens attached to the front of it it ain’t half bad. It manages to retain that legendary bokeh that the Helios 44 lenses are famous for while still doing a passable job in the sharpness department.

This was actually not a shot that I thought I'd be keeping as I was only shooting these little flowers as a test shot to see how a vintage lens I was trying out was rendering on my Sony digital camera. But the more I looked at it the more I personally liked it.
