Formentera como Antidepresivo.

 

Es muy difícil para cualquier persona, mostrarse como es, y tan difícil para nosotros enseñarle como nos sentimos.

 

Hay lugar, por muy pequeños que sea, que te transmiten una paz que nadie puede darte, y aprendes que el silencio puede llegar a ser el ruido más fuerte.

 

La vida no debería ser un viaje hacia la tumba, con la intención de llegar a salvo con un cuerpo bonito, y bien conservado, más bien deberías llegar derrapando entre una nube de humo, y desgastado y destrozado, y proclamar en voz alta, " Uf; ¡Vaya viajecito!"

Super yacht Elixir, a 180 ft vessel built in 2016, near Lantern Point in Comino, Malta on October 10th, 2018.

Dans les allées animées du marché médiéval de Pontivy, un personnage énigmatique attire tous les regards.

 

Vêtu d'un pourpoint de cuir noir et d'une chemise de lin rougeâtre, il arbore une barbe fournie et des lunettes qui semblent venir d'un autre temps.

 

Sur sa tête, un chapeau haut-de-forme orné de symboles mystiques et de rouages brillants, témoignant de ses connaissances en mécaniques obscures et en potions magiques.

 

Derrière lui, des étagères croulent sous le poids de fioles et de bocaux contenant des élixirs aux couleurs chatoyantes.

 

Chaque flacon renferme un secret, une promesse de guérison, de force ou de sagesse.

 

Les villageois chuchotent à son passage, certains le craignant, d'autres le vénérant, mais tous savent que ses mixtures peuvent changer le cours d'une vie.

 

Avec un sourire énigmatique, il accueille les curieux et les désespérés, leur offrant des remèdes contre les maux du corps et de l'âme.

 

« Approchez, braves gens, approchez ! » dit-il d'une voix grave et envoûtante.

 

« Ici se trouvent les secrets des anciens, les potions des dieux et les remèdes des rois ! ».

This is an earthen-ware water container. Atop it is the steel container using which water is drawn out of the main container. Keeps water cool in summers. Found mostly in Indian rural areas.

Είναι πιο καταπληκτικό απ' ό,τι

βαρετά θα επαναληφθεί, αυτό

που συμβαίνει τώρα: μια στιγμή!

μη δακρύσω και χαθείς

κι εσύ, ακόμα δε γεννήθηκες...

Πάρε ό,τι θες. Έτσι κι αλλιώς

δεν μπορείς να μείνεις ακίνητη

μια στιγμή

να στηριχτώ επάνω μου.

Lust - Mors Et Amor(www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMyGnCBqmTo)

I found this interesting concept in a photography magazine that my wife bought me for Christmas.

The concept is about changing the shape of any bokeh.

It never occurred to me that this could be done so easily.

These examples are just one shot each.

No Photoshoping, just cropping and very basic edits.

 

Here is how I set it up following the example in the magazine.

'The ultimate Photography Masterclass vol 17'

 

My Camera on tripod, manual mode 50mm at f/1.4, 1/40th sec, 64 ISO (or slight variations of these settings)

Then .5 m in front of that is my bottle

Then 1 metre in front of the bottle are my Christmas lights.

The focus is on the bottle and the bokeh has the usual appearance at this aperture . i.e beautiful round orbs of out of focus lights.

Then as per instructions I, (my wife) had cut out a circle of thin black card to the Diameter of my lens (77mm)

I , (my wife) cut out a heart shape in the centre of the card.(make the shape about 1/3 to 1/4 the width of the lens.

I then placed this card on the front of my lens. It was a nice fit so I did not have to tape it to the lens.

This was set up in dark room during the day.

Turn on Christmas lights and snap away.

 

My Christmas lights are are a long strand of small round globes that are continuously changing colour.

The rest of the lights are laying on the floor covered up by a bath mat.

during a walk today, on one of this year`s finest spring days so far, I enjoyed the sun and realized once more again how periods of life are repeating. Nature is awakening: The birds are back and singing again, trees are bursting out, flowers are fragrant, a lot people love the outdoors...

Reflecting about this I saw this scene and thought that it fits very well: from left to the right grewing up trees and the elixir of life, water, without its existence no life could be possible on earth.

my experimentation with H2O continues, more comin up ( apologies if it gets(already has got ) too monotonous) :)

 

#420 as of july 6th! :)

Para la composición creativa de la fotografía se busco hacer una representación de sombras multicolores que se reflejan en la parte trasera de un vaso. Además, se utilizaron páginas de colores y con la ayuda del flash de un celular se buscó brindar una mejor iluminación.

 

La fotografía fue tomada verticalmente, junto a un balance de blancos "Nublado", velocidades de 1/4 seg y una apertura f/5.6. Por otra parte, se utilizó un ISO 100 y el flash integrado de la camára.

Head First Acrobats from Australia at the Underbelly Southbank

And a week flashes by - December always seems to come and go in sudden jolts, with the end of year approaching, the cold already here, and this year the Solstice wed to an early morning Lunar Eclipse (which I missed, as 3:00 a.m. found me happily wrapped in dreams). Let's pick up from where I left off ...

 

A couple of years back I ran across the Alpha Psi Ecdysia burlesque troupe, performing at the Slipper Room of a New Year's Eve. APE is the first school-sanctioned student burlesque company in America - well done, SUNY New Paltz.

 

The founding Producing Director of the company, Lucida Sans, suddenly finds herself graduating, which is one of those things that sometimes happens to people at college. While I know she'll be happy to be Out In The World, she's leaving a consuming project behind her, and so the company puts together a farewell show to wish her off in style.

 

Thus the nerdtastic Dungeons and Drag Queens (Rule 34 Burlesque) revue, which brings together the current members of A.P.E. and a few select alumni of the company. There are bits and references drawn from geekdom in all its glory, with appearances by Dobby the House Elf, by the Mario Brothers, by some sort of manga character that I didn't know who she was, by a buxom Indiana Jones, by J. Alfred Prufrock - different kind of geekery, perhaps, but hey - and many more. I make the trip up to New Paltz, where in addition to burlesque there is snow on the ground. Whee!

 

I last saw Miss Elixir doing a dance of whirling chains. Tonight, after feigning drunkenness at a party, she clambers up her silks and gives her newest aerial number a first whirl. It's a nimble, strong debut. I'm told she performs at The Box these days, in the City, and I'll have to make it over there some night to see.

We did a 7 hour round hike up and down the steepest cliffsides I've ever scrambled over to reach this fabulous waterfall - the three hour descent being in the full midday heat of the Arizona sun. Seriously thirsty work. Luckily we were able to top up our waterbottles at this fall, as it gushes down ice cold and pure. Laced with a few sprigs of wild mint picked near by - I have never tasted water quite so sweet and heavenly.
