Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh I'll never know what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away
Oh Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like a one half could
It's wanting more
That's gonna send me to my knees
Oh gravity, stay the hell away from me
And gravity has taken better men than me
Just keep me where the light is....!!!
Taken the day following the previous shot as the lighting setup was still rigged up. The main light was a daylight spotlight which was powerful enough to light up the whole area of my kitchen table. The blue colours are a row of old glass bottles bought in a job lot off ebay and the gold colour is the back of a pine kitchen chair. I shone a small LED torch across the top of the seed head which I had saved from the summer along with the fiigree pattern leaf i had found a year ago pressed into mud on walk around Colwick Woods...Won't win any prizes but I enjoyed being in the warm on a cold wet day...

I vulcani e le spinte geologiche plasmano il pianeta. Nuove isole sorgono dalle profondità del mare nel corso dei millenni. Lentamente si elevano verso cielo dove fanno condensare le nuvole. Queste creano pioggia, acqua che fluisce per gravità e crea cascate e fiumi di inestimabile bellezza.
Foto scatta all'isola di La Rèunion, ovviamente :)
Buona giornata

A set of three photos inspired by falling and gravity, using an old pose struck by an old friend, with a Minimal prop.
Thanks to VelvetTeacup for modelling – she was lovely and professional.
As always, the music provides the inspiration for the whole thing.
Raw photo as usual, taken in my studio, my own EEP yada yada.
Continuing our walk up the River Twiss we came to Pecca Falls. Not too much water flowing here due to the current dry spell but a lovely spot all the same.
Cone. rhymes with Stone. This week's theme Macro Mondays. Stone Rhyming Zone. It is a miniature (Japanese) rubber cone measuring less than 2") . HMM
The walk against gravity is over. The female Black-shouldered Kite begins her rapid yet silent descent toward prey.

"Too frequently we think we have to do spectacular things. Yet if we remember that the sea is actually made up of drops of water and each drop counts, each one of us can do our little bit where we are. Those little bits can come together and almost overwhelm the world. Each one of us can be an oasis of peace." Desmond Tutu
Recently - my most beloved song:
Is working against me
And gravity
Wants to bring me down
Whoa I'll never know
What makes this man
With all the love
That his heart can stand
Dream of ways
To throw it all away
Whoa Gravity
Is working against me
And gravity
Wants to bring me down
Oh twice as much
Ain’t twice as good
And can't sustain
Like one half could
It's wanting more
It's gonna send me to my knees
Oh twice as much
Ain’t twice as good
And can't sustain
Like one half could
It's wanting more
It's gonna send me to my knees
Oh gravity
Stay the hell away from me
Oh gravity
Has taken better men than me
Now how can that be?
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where keep me where the light is

Now Playing Defying Gravity
Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts, close my eyes, and leap...
It's time to try defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
I think I'll try defying gravity
You can't bring me down
I'm through accepting limits 'cause someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change, but 'til I try, I'll never know
Too long I've been afraid of losing love I guess I've lost
Well if that's love, it comes at much too high a cost
I'd sooner buy defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity
I think I'll try defying gravity
You can't bring me down
Unlimited, our future is unlimited
And I've just had a vision almost like a prophecy
I know it sounds truly crazy
And true, the vision's hazy
But I swear someday I'll be
Flying so high
Kiss me goodbye
So if you care to find me, look to the Western sky!
As someone told me lately, everyone deserves the chance to fly
And if I'm flying solo, at least I'm flying free
To those who ground me, take a message back from me!
Tell them how I am defying gravity
I'm flying high, defying gravity
And soon I'll match them in renown
And nobody in all of Oz
No Wizard that there is or was
Is ever gonna bring me down!
An Eastern Gray Squirrel pauses mid-climb, hanging upside down with ease.
Moments like this are a reminder of just how effortlessly wildlife adapts to its environment.

Last June we went to Vancouver Island to visit friends. In the morning before departing to Vancouver we went for a short hike at the Englishman River Regional Park. There is a neat waterfall that falls between two big rocks.
I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from a RAW exposure, blended them, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, desaturated the image, and added some vignetting. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
