It's the things we love the most that destroy us.

I wasn't going to post this version, but after reading my dear friend William's comment at my previous upload, I decided it would be interesting to see what my friends thoughts will be for this one, too ;))

I'm always fascinated how light catches the shapes and textures in the sand around sunset. I love processing these types of images in B&W, as it gives you so much creative freedom.....weather still pretty awful down here in Cornwall. Comments will be most appreciated.

"LA PENTE DE LA RÊVERIE" (V. HUGO) : Titre proposé par "napoleon-83400" ;-)

VICTOR HUGO

1802 - 1885 .

"La pente de la rêverie

Amis , ne creusez pas vos chères rêveries ;

Ne fouillez pas le sol de vos plaines fleuries ;

Et quand s' offre à vos yeux un océan qui dort ,

Nagez à la surface ou jouez sur le bord .

Car la pensée est sombre ! Une pente insensible

Va du monde réel à la sphère invisible ;

La spirale est profonde , et quand on y descend ,

Sans cesse se prolonge et va s'élargissant ,

Et pour avoir touché quelques énigmes fatales ,

De ce voyage obscur souvent on revient pâle !

...

Oh ! cette double mer du temps et de l' espace

Où le navire humain passe et repasse ,

je voulus la sonder , je voulus en toucher

Le sable , y regarder , y fouiller , y chercher ,

Pour vous en rapporter quelque richesse étrange ,

Et dire si son lit est de roche ou de fange .

Mon esprit plongea donc sous ce flot inconnu ,

Au profond de l' abîme il nagea seul et nu ,

Toujours de l'ineffable allant à l'invisible ...

Soudain il s' en revint avec un cri terrible ,

Ébloui , haletant , stupide , épouvanté ,

Car il avait au fond trouvé l' éternité ."

At this moment we have a lot of rain instant of snow, but I like waterdrops too ;-)) It gives a lovely abstract.

nope, you do not have to visit your optometrician ....! It's just a traditional house on a steeply inclined street in Bergen, Norway :)

As mentioned in a comment on a previous photo in the series, these are generally pictures taken straight down on a grey cement floor. Colors appear during post-processing that depend in part on processing choices and in part on the quality of interior and exterior light on the scene. It didn't look like this when I saw it.

Thanks very much to all for the positive comments!

Stones at the bottom of a brook.

Banners, one with eyes, reflecting in the surf and some soft wave crests topped by sand make for an abstract.

"There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality."

Quote - Pablo Picasso

For Macro Mondays 28DEC15: Redux 2015--My Favorite Theme of the Year. This is for the Abstract in Macro theme.

These bubbles formed after leaving cold water in a small flat bottle. As the water warmed to room temperature, nitrogen and oxygen slowly came out of solution, with tiny bubbles forming and coalescing at sites of microscopic imperfections on the glass (www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-do-bubbles-form-if-a/). I put white tissue paper about 6 inches behind the bottle and backlit with a flashlight. This was shot at 1:1 and slightly cropped.

Thanks for viewing and Happy Final Macro Monday of 2015!
