..."Emily tries but misunderstands
She's often inclined to borrow somebody's dreams
till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play"...
See Emily Play

whether you're in winter or summer
dry season or monsoon...
here's to life and light on this beautiful planet
and to light within
may it glow...
shine on you crazy diamond ✨
……An ‘Also-ran’ from Macro Monday’s theme yesterday - I was trying to get this Bauble to ‘flare’ a little more, but this crazy diamond wouldn’t shine as I wanted but I liked the shot anyway. The chosen shot is in the first comment box if you missed it. Alan:-)………

35/52 Weeks of Music and Blythe
Featuring La Mer and Billie Joe
Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!
...Pink Floyd
Contrasts...
Soft and friable graphite lead.
Hard and shiny diamond stone.
Two very dissimilar forms of carbon.
The picture depicts my wife's wedding ring, realized on the base of a drawing we made. Mine has the same calla flower but without the diamond.
This crazy picture is dedicated to the famous band Pink Floyd and their song »Shine On You Crazy Diamond« that was some hommage to co-founder Syd Barrett within the album »Wish you were here«. Syd Barrett was the person which created the name Pink Floyd.
To achieve this rather psychedlic view with the red light at the foreground I used the light pollution of the snow groomers that are very active when the night begins. Though there were only 2 which were rather far away the red light can well be seen illuminating the whole foreground.
The mountain landscape above has some crazy light too but this light was just natural.
This week Macro Mondays theme is : “Inspired by a Song”. I selected as the source of my inspiration a song from Pink Floyd titled “Shine on you Crazy Diamond”. As some of you may know, this song was a tribute to a former band member, Syd Barrett. It is also a song from one of my favorite bands. For my photo session, I used a diamond earring that has a significant meaning to me since it used to belong to my late beloved mother.
Here is a link to the song:

And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,
and sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!
This is a night shot taken with the Milvus 1,4/25 at the Nikon Z7. Here we have mainly natural light as the last shine of dusk was still there. Waxenstein in the center of the image is always very dominating from this viewpoint though it does not belong to the highest mountains there.

ma piuttosto, come legna, di una scintilla che l'accenda

The fickle photography gods were kind enough to place a little tree and a small whispy cloud along the edge of a cliff in the same general area where the sun was going down. I didn't even have to walk around too much to allign the tree above the sun and the cloud above the tree. I took a number of shots playing with exposures and composition as the sun set, but this might be my favoirite because for a very brief time the setting sun illuminated the tree at just the right angle to cast a shadow on the hazy cloud above. The only thing I could figure is that there was some weird reflecting light off the angles of the other side of the cliff. As Floyd said, "shine on you crazy diamond."
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Black bird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
all your life
you were only waiting for this moment to be free
Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird fly, Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise,oh
You were only waiting for this moment to arise, oh
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
My friend Larry launched a new group: "The Human Element"
Recently, we had a long discussion around the idea that 'some photos just wouldn't be the same without the unique visual characteristics of the human form.' Please join his group and add your 'human element' image. We'd love it if you shared with us!
Last week, I drove to the lake to catch a sunrise. It was a beautiful sunrise. When this gentleman strolled into my frame with his long shadow, it transformed the image for me. It was boring without the 'human element.' I was saving this for a future Fence Friday but decided that this would be my first entry for the new group. And of course, it is also Wednesday, so ...
Happy Bokeh Wednesday!

Happy Bokeh Wednesday everyone!!!
Definitely best on black / Définitivement meilleur sur fond noir .
It's a big day and nature is all ready for it. It has put on its pearl necklace! Look at it shine!
C'est un grand jour. La nature s'est parée de ces plus beaux atouts et a mis son beau collier de perles. Regardez comme elle brille.

Bearing in mind this was slightly (very!) underexposed, it hasn't turned out too badly...NO! Don't view large! I liked the abstract pattern, it was supposed to be a square crop but it looked awful on New Flickr, so back to the drawing board graphics tablet. I wonder if New Flickr shows crossing out. Only one way to find out......
