"There is a crack in everything.

That's how the light gets in." Leonard Cohen, Selected Poems, 1956-1968

---------------

I first saw Leonard Cohen perform live in 1970 and have seen him several times since (most recently 3 or 4 years ago). I read his book "Beautiful Losers" in '70 or '71 and produced an audio essay (on open reel tape!) for a university course analyzing the songs in his album "Songs from a Room" which was released in 1969. Cohen is a Canadian songwriter, poet, singer, musician, novelist and painter. In his works he has explored religion, politics, isolation, sexuality, and personal

relationships. Leonard Cohen has been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame and the American Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He is a Companion of the Order of Canada, our highest civilian honor. In 2011, he received a Princess of Asturias Awards for literature. In 1994 he retreated to the Mt. Baldy Zen Center, beginning 5 years of seclusion. In 1996, Cohen was ordained as a Rinzai Zen Buddhist monk. (Source and additional information:

Creating Paper Curls using gelled flashes and tweaking colours in photoshop

Zilker Botanical Garden - Austin, Texas

I'm doing a quick Redbubble calendar to give my parents for Christmas and decided to give this oldie the flypaper texture treatment for it.

 

For anyone interested, my previous rose photo is now on the Flypaper blog with a recipe and before after.

Paper Curls

 

Pieces of paper curled and placed on a sheet of glass. Gelled flashes underneath for light and colour and then an additional play in Photoshop to tweak the colours.

On the rocks south of Curl Curl beach - some HDR processing.

Silver glass curls on a caramel glass bead. This is another handmade lampwork glass bead, this time intended for a bracelet. It's quite small really, but I attached a 16mm extension tube to my usual 90mm macro lens to get closer. The base is part of a gift card.

Still busy at the exhibition, til Sunday evening. Also working at the Book Fair at my youngest son's school later today and baking for a fund raising event for my eldest son's school. We have visitors arriving tonight for the weekend. Oh, and my two teenage sons are playing in a basketball tournament too.

I'll catch up as soon as I find time to breathe!

HFF! xoxo

Dead leaves found at the park. This image was taken with the Lensbaby Composer Pro II with Sweet 35.

One of the last remaining leaves on this particular tree has curled up prior to falling off.
