Clouds

It's one of those days...

Three funerals, no weddings...

RIP Giorgos Tsounis senior. This one is for you. I will miss your witty smile...

sometimes a cloud is all you need.

This was shot in our backyard way back in July 2010. No matter how I processed them before, they didn't match up to the incredible scenes I had witnessed that day. So I had delayed posting them. But now, thanks to Nik HDR Efex Pro, Topaz Adjust and Photoshop, I've been able to salvage most of the magic I saw that day.

The above shot is part of the BREAKING CLOUDS series. See my flickr comment below for more

Smile at the sky

It’s so pretty

It sets me free

When I’m sad

I go outside

When I’m happy

I go outside

A smile emerges on my face

So far and wide

Just like the sky

The smiling sky whom I smile back to

Smile at the sky

Rough clouds

I'm ready for some cooler temps and fall colors. Took this last November back behind my Mom's house...

If you forget me

I want you to know

one thing.

You know how this is:

if I look

at the crystal moon, at the red branch

of the slow autumn at my window,

if I touch

near the fire

the impalpable ash

or the wrinkled body of the log,

everything carries me to you,

as if everything that exists,

aromas, light, metals,

were little boats

that sail

toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now,

if little by little you stop loving me

I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly

you forget me

do not look for me,

for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad,

the wind of banners

that passes through my life,

and you decide

to leave me at the shore

of the heart where I have roots,

remember

that on that day,

at that hour,

I shall lift my arms

and my roots will set off

to seek another land.

But

if each day,

each hour,

you feel that you are destined for me

with implacable sweetness,

if each day a flower

climbs up to your lips to seek me,

ah my love, ah my own,

in me all that fire is repeated,

in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,

my love feeds on your love, beloved,

and as long as you live it will be in your arms

without leaving mine.

This was a spectacular scene. The cloud at the bottom of the photo was casting a shadow all the way across the sky. It looked like the hand of God. I wish the photo could do justice to what I saw. Taken at sunset in my yard.
