“In photography there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality.” Quote - Alfred Stieglitz
"Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere."

Dream and Reality ..... two separate and different Worlds ....
united by an invisible thread,
on which only children and Dreamers
can run with their eyes closed .... without fear of falling ......
Sogno e Realtà .... due Mondi separati e diversi ...
uniti da un filo invisibile, su cui solo i bambini e i Sognatori,
sanno correre ad occhi chiusi ..... senza paura di cadere ….

MANY THANKS TO ALL OF YOU! :)
"Reality is what we take to be true. What we take to be true is what we believe. What we believe is based upon our perceptions. What we perceive depends upon what we look for. What we look for depends upon what we think. What we think depends upon what we perceive. What we perceive determines what we believe. What we believe determines what we take to be true. What we take to be true is our reality."
Quote - Gary Zukav
Sometime it is really hard to see what is real and what isn't……….
The fence and tree branches are tangled up with their own reflections. ;-))
Happy Fence Friday!!

♫♥♫The men and women jail event♫♥♫
Broken bottles and charred pieces of glass,
Wadded up newspapers tossed on the grass,
Pouring of concrete and tearing out trees.
This is the environment that surrounds me?
Poisons and insecticides sprayed on our food,
Oceans filling with thick oil crude.
All sea life destined to a slow, awful doom.
These are the things we are to consume?
Mills pumping out iron, expelling yellow fumes,
Airlines emitting caustic gases from fuels,
Weapons of destruction tested at desolate sites.
And this is the air that's to sustain life?
There has to be something that someone can do,
Like raise the awareness to those around you
That if we don't heed the problem at hand
It's your life that's at stake, the destruction of man.

"And all so-called civilized peoples
Have increasingly become crazy and self-destructive
Because, through excessive thinking
They have lost touch with reality
That's to say
We confuse signs
With the real world
This is the beginning of meditation
Most of us would have
Rather money than tangible wealth
And a great occasion is somehow spoiled for us unless photographed
And to read about it the next day in the newspaper
Is oddly more fun for us than the original event
This is a disaster
For as a result of confusing the real world of nature with mere signs
We are destroying nature
We are so tied up in our minds that we've lost our senses
Time to wake up
What is reality?
Obviously no one can say
Because it isn't words
It isn't material, that's just an idea"
So, this shot has been sitting on my hard drive since I took it back in January 2017, I loved the fractured reflection and the sort of dark, surreal alternate reality it conveyed with golden glitter and distorted classic architecture. It's as if the building is saying, "Look at me" but it's not real, it's a distortion of reality taken from the surrounding buildings. Take away the reflection and it's dark building that struggles to convey power and strength, a false power and strength but alluring all the same. So it's with this in mind that it never got posted.
I decided to post it today because of some factors that seem to have come together. One is the obvious end of a four year nightmare and one has to do with me just missing a good walk in the city due to COVID. I've been looking through my archive folders at city pics that never were posted and thinking now is the time. Along this line, I was conversing with Leon, a new contact here on Flickr and was a bit surprised to find that he hadn't seen any architectural shots in my photostream. The reason goes back to not being able to get to NYC or any city for that matter since COVID started so not much architectural or travel photography in quite some time.
With this in mind it seems the time is right to post this shot.

Back to reality after a great week in Florida. This was taken on my first day back to work. As I type this it's -18ºc with a windchill of -30º.

Open your mind to the pathway of truth
Let the colours of life help you fly
You can walk through this world, of dreams and fantasy
And you will find your own reality
