Looking in and out at a folded paper unit for my next project. On the left we go deep, deep down inside and on the right a topview, while the unit is upside down.
Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone!

As I wrote about Michael Raedecker's work: ...again, where is everyone? There is no living soul to be seen in his paintings, while traces of human presence can be found everywhere. Here an anonymous bungalow is situated in an empty landscape.
Because of movies that almost no one can avoid these days, the bungalow - a typical American form of architecture - quickly evokes dramatic stories. What is about to happen is unclear, but Raedecker directs the emotions toward fearful suspicions with all-pervading colors and well-aimed details.
When such a lonely bungalow is swallowed up by the dark blue night, five stiff trees are enough to evoke a thriller. Why is the garage left wide open? Brightly lit and empty…

FR : Similitude frappante entre le personnage du tableau de Domenico Ghirlandaio ("portrait d'un vieillard et d'un jeune garçon") et un sympathique guide italien (moins vieux que le tableau) décrivant cette œuvre de la peinture italienne avec une gestuelle également très italienne !
Merci à lui pour cette photo "volée" (le guide a vu que je le photographiais, mais il était trop concentré sur sa chorégraphie pour avoir le temps de m'en faire reproche !)
EN : Striking similarity between Domenico Ghirlandaio’s painting ("Old man with a young boy") and a friendly (and younger) Italian guide, describing this masterpiece of Italian painting with a gesture also very Italian!
Thanks to him for this "stolen" photo (the guide detected I was shooting him, but he was too much focused on his own choreography to get time to blame me!)
Anytime in the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season if you can catch a neon sign that says NO WAIT, then I say you have "a stroke of luck"
PATIENCE
Steer the ship as you will, if the rocks are for you, find them you will. And when the sun shines brightest, into an ordinary day, the storm will come, and sweep you away.
No place to run, nowhere to hide, the ghost is in you. And the dream, the dream that you held, the one that kept you afloat, is dashed on the rocks. It leaks love and it's lemon drips drops.
Over and over, the cycle repeats, the same dream, themes, like a life of endless repeats. The message is clear, but falls on deaf ears. For the cage that was built, is lovely and sweet.
You have sailed, set forth, fought, but each time you die, you always survive. The clock ticks, but who notices time. What is this reason and rhyme.
Running, falling, climbing, basking in glory, failure or success, it's never enough. Love seeps under the door, I watch it go by. I know it's name, it's written in shame.
I am not what I love, I am tied to the chair. The room is filled with the empty of plenty, paid for with sweat, tears and the blood of my fears.
Then you walk in the door . . . . . . .

Yep, I'm posting and running. I don't expect to receive any invites/awards since I cannot reciprocate as much as normal. Just knowing that you are still "checking me out" is enough for me. I just wanted to share my flower of the day with you! I'm really proud of this one. No touch ups!
Off to babysit and work on project if given the opportunity!
Take care and have a fabulous Tuesday my friends.
Hugs.

Spring
First she wants out...and then she wants in...and then out...and then in. I am putting my foot down and saying "no"...no matter how loud she purrs. She is actually a super nice cat that has adopted my Mother in Law as her human. The cat has even trained her pretty well!

Riley has his own doggie door so he can come in or go out whenever he likes. He will push the door with his nose and make it swing back and forth. He hopes we will hear him playing with it and go and let him out, which happens a lot. If he sees a squirrel in the tree, he does not hesitate at all. He is through the door in a flash.
www.flickr.com/photos/186748575@N02/albums/72157713187109... This image tells a harsh and raw truth:
the young man is “in the bathroom,” a metaphor for a life still immersed in confusion, difficulties, and the “shit” of the society we live in.
It is a state of transition, of pain, but also of resistance.
The man outside the bathroom, instead, is an elderly person who symbolically is “out of the shit” — he has lived through life, approaching the end, the liberation from earthly suffering.
“In & Out” is the boundary between youth and old age, between chaos and calm, between struggle and surrender.
These shots were transformed and recomposed in 2020, during the lockdown caused by the pandemic of humility.I am republishing these images today as testimonies of a critical moment for humanity, where restrictions deeply impacted our relationships and revealed dynamics of control and manipulation.
The Covid pandemic was used as a pretext to limit freedom and divide people. This image is meant to recall both physical imprisonment and the need for awareness and inner rebellion.
