Seashells, plus the lamp found in the garbage from the day before and some manipulation and double exposure work done here.
Each of these, in its own way is like a visual haiku to me.

GRAFFITI
Entendida como una de las expresiones de arte urbano más populares y características de la actualidad, el graffiti no es más que un dibujo o una obra de arte pictórica realizadas en las pares y muros de la calle. Así, el graffiti no se mueve o muestra dentro de círculos intelectuales o privados de arte sino que se caracteriza por ser expuesto de manera pública para que todos lo vean y disfruten día a día. El graffiti es por lo general anónimo y puede tener diferentes objetivos en lo que respecta a la razón de su realización: mientras algunos son meramente artísticos, otros son formulaciones políticas, otros de protesta y muchos otros son simples mensajes sin mayores pretensiones.
La palabra graffiti proviene del italiano y se relaciona con la idea de grafito o de expresión gráfica. Justamente, uno de los elementos más característicos del graffiti es que se realiza siempre de manera gráfica y visual. Por lo general, el graffiti no sigue reglas artísticas más que la misma libertad de expresión del autor, y es por eso que mientras algunos son realmente complejos y verdaderas obras de arte, otros son simples frases escritas con cierta violencia en las paredes o puertas de negocios.
Se estima que los graffitis son siempre realizados por las generaciones más jóvenes que se encuentran opuestas al mundo conservador e institucionalizado de los adultos. En este sentido, en muchos países el graffiti es un delito ya que es considerado suciedad o daño de la propiedad privada. Sin embargo, en diversos lugares el graffiti ya está integrado al tejido urbano y es considerado una verdadera e importante forma de expresión cultural y popular.
Hoy en día, los graffitis se han revigorizado en muchas ciudades ya que se utilizan stencils de gran complejidad e infinitos diseños para establecer ideas o puntos de vista. Algunos de ellos son graciosos, otros cuentan con una importante ironía, pero todos lo hacen desde un lado artístico que debe tenerse en cuenta más allá del hecho en sí del graffiti.
from the visual journal that I've been working on, started on '09 and now continued. Most of the images in the 2022 section come from a French children's book on zoology, "Pour les tout Petits,Lectures sur les Animaux."
With the weather turned grey and the spring flowers just starting to poke through, it is nice to view again some fall blooming flowers from a lovely front porch garden in Neskowin, Oregon.

The Australian Hasselblad representatives came to the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra on December 6 2016, bringing with them the two latest cameras in the Hasselblad family; the Hasselblad H6D-50c Medium Format DSLR camera (not shown), and this camera, the Hasselblad X1D-50c mirrorless medium format camera.
I am coming from the background of a Hasselblad 501CM camera body and CFV-50c digital back. This is the same Sony sensor that the X1D-50c uses, but the latter has far more digital information available to the back, I was interested to see how it would be managed and displayed.
I would have to study the raw file header to understand what information is available, but I was still able to see how some of this information would be displayed, and how the user would interact with it (i.e., yes, this is a touch screen). Non-articulating, which has upset some, but I find it to be reassuringly solid this way. For me, the large size of the text and the simplicity of the layout made it easy to see what was being communicated. Some displays leave me with the impression that I am trying to read what has been written on a grain of rice.
As for other overall design aspects, the body appears to have fewer rather than more buttons, an approach that avoids clutter and complexity. And finally, one other "feature" is that the camera is relatively flat across the top profile. The designers could have opted for the more conventional "viewfinder hump", but I find this to be a good choice - it is part of a design that reeks of Art Deco to me.
Overall, a beautiful, distinctive design.

Photography notes ...
The photograph was taken using the following hardware ...
- iPhone 7 Plus.
I acquired the photograph (4032 x 3024 pixels) handheld with an ISO of 80, exposure time of 1/5 seconds, and an aperture of f/1.8. The iPhone flash was not used.
Post-processing ...
- I downloaded the photographs from my iPhone 7 Plus to the MacBook Air 11" using a lightning/USB cable and the iExplorer app (Macroplant).
- Sometimes I download the images taken on a shoot over WiFi using PhotoSync (touchbyte GmbH). Notably, I have found that iExplorer does not handle properly the images that have been edited using the native Apple iPhone "Photos" app (i.e., it will only transfer the original image, not the edited image).
- Following download, I viewed and sorted the photographs that were taken using XnViewMP (Pierre-e-Gougelet) or Lightroom (Adobe Systems Incorporated).
Lightroom - Imported the image into Lightroom.
Lightroom - Used the Spot Removal Tool cover up the distracting visual effect of bits of fluff on the tablecloth.
Lightroom - Made various lighting and color adjustments to the image.
Lightroom - Cropped the image retaining the original 4:3 aspect ratio
(3624 x 2718 pixels).
Lightroom - Exported the image to JPEG format with maximum quality.
PhotoSync - Copied the JPEG file to my iPad Mini for any final processing, review, enjoyment, and posting to social media.

I had been 'playing' with this concept for a while in my head. I called it (instead of the Silence of the Lambs) the Silence of the Bird. When I had the final result, it came to me immediately: VISUAL SILENCE.
I don't often 'dive' into the digital 'magical' darkroom that photoshop can be, but for certain projects it is a great creative tool!
Here, in the case of visual silence, what is being absorbed is not sound but gaze.
If silence is the absence of noise, then this visual silence is defined as the gradual absence, the vanishing, of what surrounds it, where we burrow from the visible surface to the invisible core.
Our focus on the image involves a diminution of the optic field:
in this sense, visual silence is like a poem, its power arising from its sheer vulnerability.
The image cannot be penetrated even by the most powerful of gazes because it is already open, in full view... and yet the transparency of the image, one that does not attempt to hide anything, is still capable of mystery.
Visual silence arrests us because it is the interface between two realms of partial knowledge: between he who does not know he is being watched and those who do not know what they are watching.
Some images leave us speechless, we watch them in silent awe.
Ultimately the camera is merely an extension of the human eye, it only sees and cannot wholly know what it is seeing.
Each time I think... that's it, there's only so much you can do with flowers... and yet again and again, I'll see something new.
Being creative is not a choice... it is an urge in me.
May PEACE be with you and thanx for everything, M, (*_*)

El Cuerpo. Nuestros cuerpos,
enredados dándole al movimiento,
danzantes, danzan en caricias y besos, enredados el uno contra el otro.
Mientras nuestras lenguas hablando, hablantes, hablan el mismo lenguaje.
Para después entre besos besarse, gozarse.
Mezclando nuestras salivas y entre besos ellas dos gozando, gozan.
El Cuerpo, el cuerpo se agita,
se convulsiona va adoptando la forma amorosa de la pasión acelerada hasta
que llega la sudoración corporal y la paz invade los cuerpos, al final del alma.

I'm entering this in a call for visual journals by the Brooklyn Sketchbook Library to be put in a time capsule for 50 years (!). I've decided the theme will be birds, with the Emily Dickinson quote in mind, "I hope you love birds too. It's economical. It saves going to heaven."
Visual Magick made these adorable inflatable shark mods!!!! Look at that face! Those hand holds! I want to float away somewhere when I wear this mod! There is even a walker included with squeeky sounds! Comical! Rubber! Adorable! Check-ch-check-check-check-ch-check it out! What-wha-what-what-what’s it all about?!

I’m deliriously tired so that might have been a strange review lol.

I "Fjord Mystique: A Journey Through Nordic Majesty," we invite you to embark on a visual odyssey like no other. This extraordinary series of photographs transports you to the heart of a Scandinavian fjord, where the grandeur of nature takes center stage.
With each image, you will find yourself sailing through these deep, dark waters, surrounded by towering, barren mountains that rise dramatically from the fjord's edge. The unique perspective of each photograph immerses you in the rugged beauty of the landscape, and as you explore the series, you'll notice the absence of any man-made elements, offering an unspoiled view of the untamed wilderness.
The photographs capture the drama of the moment, with heavy clouds in the sky casting a sense of foreboding. Yet, the sun's rays pierce through the clouds, bathing the fjord and mountains in an otherworldly light. Each image is a testament to the majesty and isolation of this pristine environment.
Join us on this journey through Nordic mystique, where the pure essence of nature is laid bare, and the interplay of light and shadow creates a visual masterpiece worthy of the most prestigious publications.
As an aircraft approaches the transonic range, shock waves begin to build up at certain points on the aircraft. These shock waves cause distortion of light waves and a great example of this effect can be seen in this shot, which is a crop from the previous shot in my photostream.

Enjoy my photos and please feel free to comment. The only thing that I ask is no large, flashy graphics in the comments.
Y todo pasa.
Y todo permanece.
Como imágenes que pasan a cámara lenta y se mantienen en la memoria.
Persistencia retiniana.
De lo pasado, lo sufrido y lo olvidado sin olvidar.
Una marea, una ola, una onda que sin mas se acerca y te empapa.
Y esa humedad te cala.
Te enferma.
Todo pasa.
Pero todo permanece.

UM LINDO VISUAL...
- Este jogo de sombras e luz, que adoro, me faz lembrar de uma colega de trabalho... a Beatriz. Ela também adora fotos, mas não é muito fã de sair...
- No chão o que se encontra no céu...
A BEAUTIFUL LOOK...
- This play of shadows and light, which I love, reminds me of a coworker... Beatriz. She also loves photos, but she's not much of a fan...
- On the ground what is in the sky...
