Sting
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star, like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are, how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star, like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are, how fragile we are
How fragile we are, how fragile we are
You know you've entered a weird phase in your life when your friend drives by with a praying mantis pod she thought your kid might like and you exchange it in the driveway like a drug deal.
These guys were insanely cool and F was thrilled to be a mom to hundreds of new fragile lives.
Shot during a mini meet-up with with a Flickr contact of mine DSLR_MANIA
There was a very heavy fog when I took this shot and I had to focus manually to get this one.
If you want to, take a look at downtownlalife magazine , I'm being featured right now
.
My New Year's resolutions:
1. Try to improve my photography.
2. Shoot more portraits - portraiture is my first love and I'm a big admirer of portraiture/model photographers like Richard Avedon and Irving Penn.
3. Shoot with film - I'm looking for a good med format film camera, maybe even a large format film.
4. Looking for a job with less responsibilities, less working hours and less stress and more time to shoot photos and spend quality time with my loved ones. That's what really matters.

Un giorno credi di essere giusto
e di essere un grande uomo
in un altro ti svegli
e devi cominciare da zero...
Situazioni che stancamente
si ripetono senza tempo
una musica per pochi amici
come tre anni fa...
A questo punto non devi lasciare
qui la lotta Γ¨ piΓΉ dura, ma tu
se le prendi di santa ragione
insisti di piΓΉ---
Sei testardo, questo Γ¨ sicuro
quindi ti puoi salvare ancora
metti tutta la forza che hai
nei tuoi fragili nervi...
Quando ti alzi e ti senti distrutto
fatti forza e vai incontro al tuo giorno
non tornar sui tuoi soliti passi
basterebbe un istante...
Mentre tu sei l'assurdo in persona
e ti vedi giΓ vecchio e cadende
raccontare a tutta la gente
del suo falso incidente...

absolutely gorgeous mom and baby, taken at the barthimee clinic in senegal, west africa. although impossible to tell from this photograph, this was one of the sickest children i cared for during my time in africa.
nine months old, this baby weighed only 4 kg (a bit over 8 pounds), suffering from typhoid, malaria, and chronic and severe malnutrition. small though they are, my hands were able to completely encircle his upper chest, finger tips overlapping on his back, my thumbs touching over his heart. he belonged in an intensive care unit, but besides none being available, his mother could not afford even overnight observation for him at an outlying hospital. we gave him all the medications we had and sent him home with his mother with further medications and instructions.
by absolutely nothing other than the grace of god, she returned with him to the clinic several days later, and he was much, much improved. hope is a fragile thing, but what an example of why we should have it. his mom was so kind to allow me to take this picture, and was very pleased to see it.
the grain and blur is unfortunate, but the power was out at the clinic at the time, and this was all i could squeeze out of my camera.

From space it is shockingly visible how fragile our eco- and climate systems are. Mesospheric clouds above Siberia.
Vom All aus ist schockierend deutlich zu sehen, wie zerbrechlich unser Klimasystem ist.

"In a fragile environment, we need to be aware of ourselves as members of a uniquely powerful species living among other species who are quite as interesting as we are but vulnerable to us because we are cleverer in more destructive ways."
Andrew Motion
Photographing, in other words catching some light, isn't that easy these days. Rain, hail, snow and big dark clouds keep us company here on the isle. I just keep working on my Fragility ledger ...no better way to use my time ... :-)

Metate Arch in Devil's Garden, Grand Staircase Escalante NM, Utah. Perspective snarfed from Fatali, the resulting image is quite different from his version.
Next installation of my recent series of B/W conversions. While learning how to properly convert colour landscape images to B/W (including identifying images which are suitable for such processing), I am realizing that achieving a good tonal range without creating annoying processing artifacts is challenging.
(Reload due to some glitches in the previous version.)
Nature seems to hold its breath, draped in a fragile layer of frost, as if bracing for the weight of the snow to come. Each branch carries the icy stillness of winter, waiting patiently for the sunβs warmth to bring it back to life. πΏ

Waldanemone - Anemone nemorosa
captured in my local wood
I would have liked to show some new work, but this year the fragile anemone nemorosa had already passed their best when I visited my local beech wood.
I specially like the almost invisible string of spider thread, top right, that seems to be holding the weed.
Happy Macro Monday, my friends! :)

From a cracked shell, life emerges.
Not as a miracle, but as a promise.
The egg, symbol of fragility and origin,
cradles the color of the sun in a simple flower.
Among what is broken, possibility blooms.
And the small, the forgotten, the humbleβ¦
becomes beauty when seen through a different lens.
