Had a mess with the rainbow blade tonight in conjunction with some camera rotation. Worked on a technique until satisfied then capped the lens and busted out a phisiogram over the top.
Happy days.
Trees lining the path close to the Chaplin Road entrance to Queens Park , Longton fade into the distance of a foggy winters day.
Not too many flowers grow by the seashore. It's pretty rough faring for something so delicate, but these lovely, Lantana blooms were planted outside the public restrooms and picnic area of the Ponce Inlet Park. When I saw them, I couldn't resist taking a pic, not so much because of the flowers, but the interesting star shaped growth on the right. I don't know if it has anything to do with them, but it was interesting, anyway. I tried to capture the insects that were flying around the flowers, which looked something like a cross between a brownish-grey moth and a butterfly, but they moved too quickly for me to focus on, and since light was fading and I had a lot more to see, I moved on!
This wasn't taken with my macro lens, which I'm sure would have given a much better result, but there just wasn't time. One of these days, I'll go earlier with the sole intent (yeah, right!) of doing a macro shoot. I think that would be best reserved for a garden area, but who knows? There are a lot of beautiful macro possibilities at the beach, although it's hard to take note of them when focusing on waves, lighthouses and lifeguard towers! Perhaps a cloudy, grey day that would be less tempting would do. :-)
This image was shot on location at Whitesheet Hill in Wiltshire. The mixture of the light and the passing clouds helped to create excellent conditions for landscape photography as the light and shadows battled for control and in doing so helping to reveal subjects within the background.
“Beauty's a doubtful good, a glass, a flower,
Lost, faded, broken, dead within an hour;
And beauty, blemish'd once, for ever's lost,
In spite of physic, painting, pain, and cost”
- William Shakespeare
"The flowers anew, returning seasons bring,
But faded beauty has no second spring”
- Ambrose Phillips

The light from the sun begins to fade in Byron Bay, as a loan surfer far off in the distance can be seen looking for that perfect wave.

There used to be two trees standing together here at Willow Lake - now there is one.
There used to be eagles who rested in this tree - now there are none.
There used to be many other things in my life - now they are gone.
But as I age, I prefer to keep the memories of what "used to be" - not dwelling on them - but looking forward to "what will be."

Another time it might have been so different
oh if only we could do it all again
but now it's just another fading memory
out of focus, though the outline still remains
Like the story that we wish was never ending
We know sometime we must reach the final page
still we carry on just pretending
that there'll always be one more day to go
Another chance hello, another goodbye
and so many things we'll never see again
days of life that seemed so unimportant
they seem to matter but to count much later on
Far away, away, fading distant lights
leaving us all behind, lost in a changing world
and you know that these are the days of our lives
remember
It had been three days. And I had been seeing many patients, using the alcohol handrub after most of the encounters.
Clearly it did something to the ink on my finger. It had flaked off and fading away even at the nails.
I doubt that the drama would have finished when the ink was gone. Ramadhan coming, but that won’t stop me from having some popcorns in the evenings ...
