... through a glass door!

(off on holidays for a week, more landscape, less internet! ;))

 

HSS everybody!

Sowing the seeds of love!

~ Tears for Fears ~

 

Thank you so much for all your wonderful words, your friendship, your love and of course your invites and comments.

 

I know I missed a lot, but I try to keep up with all of you.

I only need time....

 

Hugs and kisses!

Les Brumes thank you!!

Her voice during the show was simply divine. She certainly does not look like the woman who is also part of the band Puscifer. :)

no fancy editing this week; just a quick b/w conversion and teeny tiny crop.

Shibuya Crossing, Tokyo, Japan

 

If you Google "Shibuya crossing" and click on images you will most certainly recognise only two viewpoints - the obvious is at street level and the other from an elevated point which I know of only two. One is from an hotel and restaurant which has now cottoned on and blocked access to photographers, especially those with tripods and the other is from Starbucks with a 1st floor gallery right opposite the crossing. Unfortunately, everybody else knows of this viewpoint and so the queue to get a front row seat is considerable. I've never seen so many people make a Frappuccino last so long but that's probably just the excitement in me to get my shot!

 

But patience is a virtue, or so I'm told and eventually we muscled our way to the front row. This was to be the scene of my first upload... a tripod shot, 2 to 3 seconds exposure with Mrs R stood in the middle of the crossing waving at me with the masses all blurred around her but the best laid plans of mice and men fell at the first hurdle.

Firstly - you can't set up a tripod in Starbucks but I was wise to this fact and so bought a gorilla pod specially for the job.

Secondly - the front row consists of high level tables between the pillars which is constantly on the bounce with people leaning and pushing against them so no stable platform for the pod.

Thirdly - the distance from said tables to the windows makes reflections impossible to avoid so shot one well and truly knackered!

 

The only thing to do is watch all the fun below whilst drinking your Matcha green tea latte (it's the future, try it sometime)... albeit slowly before getting out there and joining the masses.

 

I wanted to capture the chaos of the scene and couldn't think of a better way of conveying the randomness of the masses other than setting my camera to slow shutter speed, holding it above my head and crossing with everybody else when the lights go green. A bit random I agree, but I like the effect and it fits nicely with the accompanying track suggested by Mrs R.

Tears For Fears to wake up today

 

hearing this great song

everybody can kiss slowly the cup of coffee.

 

through the looking glass there's always a world better than this.

 

It was 17 years between albums, and I am not sure how many years passed since they last toured together, but the band sounded incredibly tight.

 

Pasaron 17 años entre discos, y no estoy seguro de cuántos años pasaron desde la última gira juntos, pero la banda sonaba increíblemente unida.

Hide my head

I want to drown my sorrow

No tomorrow

No tomorrow

"We haven't been playing with fire or rain... In a long, long, long time... For a long, long, long time... IT'S BEEN A LONG, LONG, LONG TIME..."

All around me are familiar faces

Worn out places

Worn out faces

Bright and early for the daily races

Going no where

Going no where

Mad World by Gary Jules.

 

Got lucky after 26262 successive shots, HEH. Thank this fella , for zipping above the reflections. I hope the mood and multiplied darkness give a foreboding sense in this picture. I hope you guys notice that there are two persons walking, and their footsteps are in tandem :)

Will we make this happen?

 

The experiment continues. The mad professor and team are forging ahead with more tracked in real-time experimental field psychology.

 

Things will become 'safer' but less free: someone will have to pick up the tab after all.

 

UK retail sales 'growth' will be digitally tracked and traced and will make for interesting reading for the last week of July / Quarter 3 / H2 / Phase 1.

 

The UK high street may rebound (even dead cats bounce don't you know). Or it may tank further. Consumers may shop online even more so thereby finally signing the high streets death warrant (Cause of death: this year's on trend disease).

 

Of course spending via credit card will probably increase further so smaller retailers if they survive will have even worse cashflow of a form of currency that is even more Fiat. On the 'plus side', shoppers will have more of their purchases digitized and like good birls and goys their credit history might improve.

 

Will the high street bounce or will we roll over to provide a bezzoss bonanza? This is an experiment we can all take part in and alter the outcome through our actions, in real time.

 

Hello there. Relevant comments welcome but please do NOT post any link(s).

I knew all of this was coming

Ain't that odd

Some things come out of nothing

As with God

Not my intention to amuse

Or confuse

All around me are familiar faces.

 

Worn out places, worn out faces.

 

Bright and early for the daily races.

 

Going nowhere, going nowhere.

 

Their tears are filling up their glasses.

 

No expression, no expression.

 

Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow.

 

No tomorrow, no tomorrow.

 

Mad world

Into that void of silence

Where we cry without sound

Where tears roll down

All around me are familiar faces,

worn out places, worn out faces,

bright and early for the daily races,

going nowhere, going nowhere.

"and anything is possible when you're

sowing the seeds of love

anything is possible

sowing the seeds of love"

"PLEASE BE HAPPY... 'Cause you know I cannot bear to see you... In this state of melancholy... Curled up in your chair..."

 

"The village of Matala on Crete's southern coast, was once a loose collection of houses scattered around a beach. Now it is a thriving resort, in some ways indistinguishable from others that dot the island's shores. But ITS UNIQUENESS LIVES ON, begininng with THE SOFT INVITING SOUND OF ITS NAME: MA-TA-LA.

No one was ever able to telle us what it meant, leaving it a cipher with space for our own imaginings, of longing and whispered promises, enchantment and spirituality, intimacy with a dash of exoticism, echoes of mandalas and Shangri La." (Jürgen BOSCH / "Matala")

What would it be like to stay here forever

Immortal with no fears

 

And would a flower that learns to love..

Be able to cry with real tears?

 

I ask these questions because you know why

Don't make me tell you I don't want to lie

 

The truth is that I love you

So much that I may die

 

You know who you are

If you make me tell, I am just gonna cry

 

Tears of fears.

Sometimes you have to take a moment to address the audience.

 

A veces hay que tomar un momento para dirigirse a los fanáticos.
