“Silver thread through the Rockies” the advertising agent wrote in the 1950’s for the California Zephyr. Now more than 70 years later the phrase still stands true. @amtrak Number 5, the California Zephyr is seen here going through the Rockies, not around them and shimmers in the beautiful winter morning light along the amazing Flatirons. .

This is the most beautiful bug I've ever seen. It is as big as the bigger dragonflies.

This was found on a field on top of a hill next to a large river. There were a couple of them on that area, but I had never seen these before.

Since then, I found this to be locally common on some areas of Alentejo and Algarve (hills or dunes).

An Ancient Chinese proverb says, “An invisible red thread connects those destined to meet, despite the time, the place, and despite the circumstances. The thread can be tightened or tangle, but will never be broken.”

This is my freestyle, actually for the past week, but could not upload due to finals!

Once I finish my exhibition I'm planning just too many new shoots, totally different styles (even wedding!) and in all that I hope I find some time to make some short films -mainly for practice!

And I love the idea of Project 104. I'm thinking, creating and at the same time allowing myself to work on other stuff too. Which is great.

Also, I have no idea what will I do for Uni. Will I continue, will I stop?

One thing for certain, I will be applying for scholarships. Anything related to art.

Actually my second choice for Macro Mondays "holes" theme. My first choice, also on my photostream, did not meet the criteria. The entire hole was not visible.

Digging into the archives a bit. This is from that haul of thread cones Mum brought in the spring.

I'm really liking puffy stitches. I'm pretty sure I've settled on the round flower with the border to make it square, but with multi-color centers.

It looked very similar to a stick insect.

I have always been facinated by colour, especially in a "multi-colour" sense, and have wanted to take this shot for ages, but JL have a strict "No Photo" policy, so this is SOOC & shot from the hip

The colours of these threads is so amazing. These are hand over-dyed Pearl Cotton Size 12.

A threaded fastener is a discrete piece of hardware that has internal or external screw threads. It falls into the overall fastener family. They are usually used for the assembly of multiple parts and facilitate disassembly.

This is the view from the place I stay when I am in Havana. As much as I am a fan of breakfast buffets (breakfast is my favorite meal) I am a bigger fan of being right where I want to be with a camera from the first moment I wake to the last moment I am awake.

  

To be clear I never crop an image. What you are looking at are two images mrged together so I can get the totlity of the view.

  

Yup I bit the bullet and modified a Z9 for infrared. I did a full spectrum conversion and then am using the bayonet filters from Kolarivision. Which means I can have my cake and eat it too. THe first element of the lens dictates everything that is going to happen from the quality of the light and resolution of thar light. So putting the IR filter at the end of the light path is far better than putting a filter in front of the lens. a full spectrum conversion allows me to bring my camera back to visible spectrum with a different filter as well as having every flavor of IR....coool....

  

There is a powerful advantage to a camera that can focus at the speed of life and that is more silent than a breath held expectant. You can truly create a place when the spirt of the subject can hide in your camera/

There is no camera system that has a better or more powerful one. This image was was shot using highlight center metering.

Shot with the AMAZING Z9. The Z9 is more camera than I am photographer.

From my mom's sewing kit

I inadvertently walked into this web, the spider began to repair it immediately.

ODC-Thread

 

I was totally stumped as to what to use since all my sewing things are packed, then I remembered I still had these little gems in my Spice rack. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saffron This is the worlds most costly spice by weight. That's why I have so little of it. I use it in rice mostly. It give the rice a yellowish tinge and a nice musty flavour.

Minimalism.

Inspired by a conversation with a friend about the things that enter our minds in order and come out randomly and the things that enter our minds randomly and come out in order.

Downtown LaGrange gets split in half as CSX 8444 leads train Q243 through town.

I AM the wind that wavers,

You are the certain land;

I am the shadow that passes

Over the sand.

 

I am the leaf that quivers, 5

You—the unshaken tree;

You are the stars that are steadfast,

I am the sea.

 

You are the light eternal,

Like a torch I shall die…. 10

You are the surge of deep music.

I—but a cry!

 

Zoë Akins, "I am the Wind". 1917.

This really showed a big difference between a piece of thread and its shadow. I tilted the paper away from the sun to get thicker, more interesting shadows.

Threads of Silence by Karise Eden.

 

Karise has a quality to her voice that is raw, emotional, powerful yet fragile.

 

if i gave you every inch of me

could you show me how

if i learn to be more brave

could you show me how

i take a deep breath

straighten up my back

stand tall and walk along

 

he said you could do anything

but anything is nothing when you need a bit of helpin' out

you could go anywhere but anywhere is nowhere

but when emptiness is where you stand
