Two cool things arrived on my doorstep today: My first "real" turntable, an Audio-Technica AT-PL120, and The Polyphonic Spree's The Fragile Army on vinyl. Sweet!
Right now I've got the included cartridge installed, which sounds fine on it's own, but I ordered a Shure M97xE, primarily because it requires much less tracking force. I'm really happy with it, it's a huge jump from my Numark PT-01 portable turntable. Of course, I would have loved a Technics SL-1200, but that's way out of my budget, and not really necessary. The AT sounds great and I love the look of it. Tomorrow I'm going record shopping!
So now my modest (yet expensive to me) audio gear includes:
13" MacBook Laptop
Ipod Classic 80GB
Audio-Technica AT-PL120 Turntable
Numark PT-01 Turntable
Alesis M1Active 320USB powered studio monitors
Grado SR-80 headphones
As a side note, this is the first photo I've processed completely from scratch in awhile. No real reason, guess I was feeling less lazy than normal today.
When the wind blows,
can you feel it caress all your little pores
as it moves through you?
Be still,
fragile one,
while I hold you betwixt my gentle grasp
and freeze an image of you forever.
LIGHT BOX!!
I wanted to design a cake that was very delicate and had beautiful flavors.
I named it Fragile because this song by STING Is possibly the most beautiful song ever written.

after I finished with the previous theme,I just let myself free.When the movement begins,I have the sense that all of my feelings are slipping through every part of me.That's the moment I begin to feel fragile and exposed.
I always had the feeling that those type of captures,are full of emotions,they always left me with bittersweet thoughts.
I hope this one will be a chance to have a kind of thought like mine.
Enjoy
Donna
Ti mostri a me
Occhi che sanno di diamante,
per durezza e bellezza
Occhi che non perdonano.
Donna
Lo sai, e non devi fingere
Quello che ti circonda è
Servo della tua beltà.
Donna
Quando sei sola
Nessuno intorno, Solo i tuoi pensieri,
Penna e calamaio, Unica compagnia…
Donna
Dal cuore triste, l’ anima è fragile.
Fragile, nel profondo
Diamante che diventa tufo
e si scioglie tra le mani.
Ma, vederti cosi,
Nessuno avrà questo onore.

…so I look around and she keep silence ...
nothing else to say between us:
we are looking simply
the fragile little trumpets,
they stay in silence too
but they are listening
with their great gorgeous ears
…così mi guardo intorno e lei resta in silenzio …
null'altro da dire fra di noi:
noi stiamo semplicemente guardando
le piccole trombe delicate,
anche loro stanno in silenzio
ma ascoltano con le loro grandi
e splendide orecchie
The fragile white crystals, or frozen dew drops, created delicate branched patterns of ice crystals.

F is for Fragile: don't worry, I didn't raid a real nest, this is an Easter decoration with lifelike but very plastic eggs. However the nest is made from the tiniest twigs and it does have these very fluffy fragile cute little spotted feathers.
Film is fragile, according to the BFI’s new supercut of some iconic British films.
Highlighting the importance of the BFI’s restoration efforts, ‘Film is Fragile’ is a montage of some of the best-known scenes in cinema, depicting characters escaping from something just off the edge of the screen…
28 Days Later, A Clockwork Orange, and the Worlds End are just three of the films included in the short, which takes in all eras and genres, in black and white and in glorious colour.
As AdWeek says, ‘for movies that have been damaged or have begun to disintegrate, it's critical to act before the action they contain fades to black forever’.
Watch ‘Film is Fragile’ below and let us know what you think of it.
This piece arose from the discovery of several disconnected butterfly wings over a period of two days following my decision to create a piece for 'Trees for Life'*. In juxtaposing line and order with flow and movement, in showing the dissolution of apparent solidity, 'Fragile' evokes a sense of entropy, impermanence and transition - the return to source which all things must make, no matter how substantial we perceive them to be.
Where earth and world meet, eventually we discover that it is WE who are fragile, despite superficial appearances. Ephemeral and short-lived they may be, but Life has an endless supply of Butterflies. And if not butterflies - something else will arise. For Life is the ultimate creator; the supreme artist; the greatest recycling force in the universe.
We disrespect and misunderstand that power at our peril, or work with it to fulfill our true potential and discover our OWN true nature, which Nature is reflecting back to us constantly...
ORIGINAL ART by JAY TAYLOR. Copyright and all rights reserved. Acrylics and collaged objects on 6"x9" board.
*In 2011 I agreed to create an original artwork as a contribution to Trevor Jones’ Twitter-inspired charity exhibition for the Trees for Life campaign, which is raising funds to restore the Caledonian Forest in the Highlands of Scotland. 140 artists from all over the world, mostly recruited through Twitter and other social media, each produced and donated an original artwork or signed, limited edition photo print in 6”x9” format. The artworks were then offered for sale for £45 each, either online or during an exhibition held in Edinburgh in November 2011. I am really happy to have created and donated an artwork to this worthy cause. ‘Fragile’ sold almost immediately to a gallery owner in Edunburgh, and the money raised from its sale was soon planting trees! :o)

My 400th shot on Flickr ...... its been an awesome journey ...thank you all for being there......commenting ,visiting and viewing my photos....
Fragile
If blood will flow when fresh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetimes 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

Golden hour in my bathroom. Click me.
Surrounded by atmosphere
Encircled in oxygen
It's a new breath that fills my lungs
I am whole
I surrender my pride
I flee from independence
Let the King of Glory fight for me
in this battle against lies
Take the veil off your face
Come and rescue me
I'll let You in
I have no fear. I take comfort in knowing that Satan only attacks that which has great potential to glorify the Creator. So I'll stand strong on Christ's solid ground and laugh at he who has already lost the fight.

Bom, resolvi voltar com o flickr... esse já é o meu terceiro endereço! haha espero que dessa vez não desanime em postar. Cada dia que passa eu me apaixono ainda mais pela fotografia. :)
Went for my first walk of spring in our woods today.
One of my main reasons for my first walk of spring is to see how the Fragile Ferns are doing. They're a little slower coming up this year, probably because late winter got pretty chilly.
For such a tiny bug, it is a beauty. My wife and kids like the Citrine Forktail best from the three around KC and I cannot blame them. Fragile and Eastern just don't have the same star power to us.

This tiny snail was only 4 or 5 mm in diameter.
The image is stacked with "CombineZ" at f/5.6 from 3 shots (each with different focus, to get sufficient DOF while the background stays soft [clear?]) with my Sigma 150 mm macro lens.
I know you won't come back.... We just were not meant to be. But my heart will take life long time to accept this unbearable truth.
