I took this Lotus Blossom photo at the Aquatic Gardens in Washington, DC, in warmer times. Today wasn't too cold, but I am still looking forward to the warmer weather.
Bāng Chhun-hong (望春風) is a Taiwanese Hokkien song composed by Teng Yu-hsien, a Hakka Taiwanese musician, and written by Lee Lin-chiu. The song was one of their representative works. It was released by the Columbia Records in 1933, and originally sung by some female singers at that time, such as Sun-Sun (純純), Ai-Ai (愛愛) or Iam-Iam (艷艷). The title literally means "Longing for the Spring Breeze".
This song is commonly used as background music in Taiwanese films or teleplays. It is also a theme in the soundtrack of Singapore Dreaming, a 2006 released Singaporean film.

“The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most, are those that are absurd - The longing for impossible things, precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was; the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else; dissatisfaction with the world’s existence. All these half-tones of the soul’s consciousness create in us a painful landscape, an eternal sunset of what we are.”
― Fernando Pessoa

I wanted a little man in front, with my own parents in mind for this (my Momma passed 14 years ago)...but the little old lady and her finger won me over. I also wanted this a bit sharper, but I guess this adds to the dreaminess. ;)
Happy Monday Everyone!!

Winter is hard right now in Scandinavia. Minus 30 degrees Celsius in nightime. No wonder we long for springtime...

Active Assignment Weekly March 2 - 9: Double Exposure
WIT: Since my camera has the ability to do double exposure in-camera, I thought I would try it for this assignment. Took the picture of me first, then took a picture of a picture on my wall of Japanese handkerchiefs. There happened to be a vase of dried flowers nearby, so I took advantage of that too. The window is actually a reflection off the glass of the picture. In post, just a crop to 8 by 10, and a very slight tweaking of colour.
