Piano Pieces. Photography Assignment #1 : Variations

This is somewhat of a rare view in Grand Teton National Park. Normally, there just isn't much of a view when String Lake is concerned. This day, I was lucky enough to be blessed with a couple kayaking into my view. Lucky!
Here is why I like this image... I believe the three levels of "mountain" from left to right create a nice visual depth. The tree shadows in the foreground also contribute to that depth in a different plane. The kayaks' colors are complimentary to the scene and they just add a little "visual treat" or a human element or feeling of relaxation/pleasure to the scene. The distant shoreline has a sandy beach which creates a really nice visual delineation to the image.
Here is a vertical comp taken in the morning along String Lake there in the Grand Tetons National Park. The clouds streaming here are partially hiding the mountains, adding to the mysterious mood I think.
I really liked these tree roots stretching along the shore of the lake. As there was a slight breeze, the water was not a mirror out in the open area, so the BULB capture not only made the clouds look cool, but it smoothed out the water to a nice sheen reflecting the clouds and sky colors down into the surface of the lake.

A great place to catch the sunrise on Mount Moran is near the trailhead for the String Lake Trail. On still mornings, you get a nice reflection of the mountain in the lake as the first rays of like strike it and Rockchuck Peak sloping down in the foreground.
Finnaly I am free from the boss out of hell..... I had a new job, but it was the worst job of my life. The boss thought that I was a puppet that could work such long days, that I've had a breakdown a few weeks ago. Now a I am free again and looking for a another job. A cool job, with nice people.
I am not someones puppet on a string.

First thought I had, when I reading the new theme, was "duh!" - I had absolutely no idea...
Then what happened was that I had the song playing in my head the whole weekend.
One of the reasons I admire the song -apart from excellent songwriting- is that it made me fall in love with 12-strings.
So I dedicate this weeks entry to the sound of 12-string guitars!
Photography using a DSLR Camera portraying the string theory that we are all connected by strings of energy that transfer emotion and feeling between each and every person on Earth. These strings create an aura and atmosphere in a room as the emotion is being transferred between all the people so they all subconsciously feel the same thing.
Piano strings on a 1931 Steinway M grand piano. The oldest record of wire being made for musical instruments is from Augsburg in 1351. Starting around 1800, the piano began to be built ever more ambitiously, with sturdier (eventually, iron) framing and greater string tension. This led to innovations in making tougher piano wire. In 1834, the Webster & Horsfal firm of Birmingham, United Kingdom brought out a form of piano wire made from cast steel; according to Dolge it was "so superior to the iron wire that the English firm soon had a monopoly." But a better steel wire was soon created in 1840 by the Viennese firm of Martin Miller, and a period of innovation and intense competition ensued, with rival brands of piano wire being tested against one another at international competitions, leading ultimately to the modern form of piano wire.
"Life is a train of moods like a string of beads; and as we pass through them they prove to be many colored lenses, which paint the world their own hue, and each shows us only what lies in its own focus."
(Ralph Waldo Emerson - American Poet and Essayist, 1803-1882)
This is the train which goes from Delhi to Varanasi (Benaras), I took this picture when it stopped at Moradabad for ten minutes.
This young man is a chai wallah selling tea from one coach to another.
The train was full and we had to handle the usual heat of the last days of May, so each stop became a moment of happiness where I could find cold drinks and fresh fruits and take a few pictures in order to free my mind.
I always enjoy using Indian Railways, it allows to meet amazing people, to find the time to share a few words with them and to learn many things.
I try to travel by train as much as I can, it is not only a way to reach a place but also to travel in time...I treasure so many memories of funny stories and touching moments spent in those trains even if I am also fighting a lot with some unbelievable noisy and rude people at night...;))
