Me regalabas colores

que yo agradecido miraba

en el reflejo del agua.

Qué sutil es disfrutar

de la luz cuando penetra

en el agua y encuentra en ella

los colores que el otoño

nos deja para cantar

que la vida cuando acaba

allí todo has de dejar.

Deja siempre tus colores

y hazte luego a la mar,

donde llegan los reflejos

que tú dejaste al marchar.

  

Música instrumental de otoño.

This shot is from my good friend and photographer Brian Klepper. I took him out with me on one of my shoots to a remote and secret location.

 

When I am shooting the Great Salt Lake, I am in the water 97% of the time. I spend a lot of time standing and waiting for the light.

 

The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the photo.

Will you hold the line?

When every one of them is giving up or giving in,

Tell me in this house of mine?

Nothing ever comes without a consequence or cost,

Tell me will the stars align?

Will heaven step in? Will it save us from our sin? Will it?

'Cause this house of mine stands strong

 

That's the price you pay

Leave behind your heartache, cast away

Just another product of today

Rather be the hunter than the prey

And you're standing on the edge, face up 'cause you're a

 

Natural

A beating heart of stone

You gotta be so cold

To make it in this world

Yeah, you're a natural

Living your life cutthroat

You gotta be so cold

Yeah, you're a natural

 

Deep inside me, I'm fading to black, I'm fading

Took an oath by the blood of my hand, won't break it

I can taste it, the end is upon us, I swear

Gonna make it

I'm gonna make it

 

Lyrics from "Natural" by Imagine Dragons

  

I have the honour to invite you to the exhibition called "Feelings" curated by my dear friend Dido Haas at the amazing Nitroglobus Roof Gallery. This exhibit will stay for this month.

I tried to show on my works that an avatar is very natural and can show feelings as in Real Life.

Hope you enjoy it ❤ hugsss

  

TAXI: Nitroglobus Roof Gallery

If you decide to travel along this highway into the bowels of the Universe, carry enough fuel to cover the billions of light years ahead of you. You won't find a place to refuel. When you have travelled this distance without finding anything, not even a little bit of intelligent life and you reach the far reaches of the Universe... don't be scared... there's nothing there, either. Only the "nothing". Or since everything is cyclical, perhaps you have returned to the place where you started, full of wisdom from your long trip. It's probably better to look for intelligent life on Earth, but it's also very likely that you'll have a hard time finding it. Don't worry about not understanding the Universe or the reason for its existence... you're not Einstein, but one day you'll understand that... The Universe is wounded, but it still has infinity ahead of it. It still has you and me. Merry Christmas to all and to the infinite Universe that is within you.

 

Gregory Alan Isakov - The Universe

 

Y el Universo está susurrando tan suavemente que puedo oírlo todo... el zumbido de los insectos, todos los taxis, todo el cambio gastado de los vagabundos, todos los chicos jugando a la pelota en los callejones. Son sólo pliegues en su vestido. El Universo, está herido, pero aún tiene el infinito por delante. Todavía nos tiene a ti y a mí. Y todos dicen que es hermoso. Y todos dicen...

Image dédiée à Pat. Joyeux Noël. Bisou, jolie.

Music for your trip to the Universe:

 

David Bowie - Space Oddity

Ground Control to Major Tom. Ground Control to Major Tom. Take your protein pills and put your helmet on. Ground Control to Major Tom (ten, nine, eight, seven, six)... Commencing countdown, engines on (five, four, three)... Check ignition and may God's love be with you (two, one, liftoff...)

 

Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts VI–IX

"Shine On You Crazy Diamond", was written as a tribute to Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd. He was also known as "The Crazy Diamond Syd". Barrett was a very creative musician and is considered one of the rock icons, with a strong influence on many artists, very especially to David Bowie. Syd Barrett is a key piece to understand the evolution of rock in the 70s.. Excessive drug use, especially LSD, caused him serious mental health problems. Syd Barrett died in 2006 at the age of 60. Always shine diamond.

 

Blur - The Universal

The Universal is a science fiction song written as a tribute to two films by film director Stanley Kubrick. In the video, the Blur members wear outfits similar to Alex and his gang of thugs, the protagonists of the movie "A Clockwork Orange." The image used for the cover of the single alluded to what is possibly Kubrick's best film: "2001: To Space Odyssey."

Also Sprach Zarathustra by Richard Strauss (Op. 30) / The Dawn of Man scene, 2001: A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick, 1969

We haven't changed that much in 300,000 years of evolution.

Incubus - Stellar

Stevie Wonder - Rocket Love

Moby - We Are All Made of Stars

PS: Electronic - Can't Find My Way Home Just a recommendation. It is important to learn the road signs of the Universe... happy return.

 

PS: Ground Control to Major Tom. Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong. Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you...

"Here am I floating 'round my tin can, far above the moon. Planet Earth is blue. And there's nothing I can do" (Major Tom)

 

PS: Merry Christmas to all Flick(e)r users... and to the Universe full of crazy diamonds that shine... And Major Tom

We're talking away

I don't know what I'm to say, I'll say it anyway

Today's another day to find you shying away

I'll be coming for your love, okay?

Take on me

(Take on me)

Take me on

(Take on me)

I'll be gone

In a day or two

So needless to say, I'm odds and ends

But I'll be stumbling away

Slowly learning that life is okay

Say after me, it's no better to be safe than sorry

Take on me

(Take on me)

Take me on

(Take on me)

I'll be gone

In a day or two

Oh, the things that you say

Is it life or just to play my worries away?

You're all the things I've got to remember

You're shying away, I'll be coming for you anyway

Take on me

(Take on me)

Take me on

(Take on me)

I'll be gone

In a day

(Take on me, take on me)

(Take me on, take on me)

I'll be gone

(Take on me)

In a day

(Take me on)

Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and favs ...it is always appreciated.

 

Happy Tuesday

"Look . . . at . . . me. . . ."

Quote ― J. K. Rowling

   

Stay with me, baby stay with me,

Tonight don't leave me alone.

Walk with me, come and walk with me,

To the edge of all we've ever known.

 

I can see you there with the city lights,

Fourteenth floor, pale blue eyes.

I can breathe you in.

Two shadows standing by the bedroom door,

No, I could not want you more than I did right then,

As our heads leaned in.

 

Well, I'm not sure what this is gonna be,

But with my eyes closed all I see

Is the skyline, through the window,

The moon above you and the streets below.

Hold my breath as you're moving in,

Taste your lips and feel your skin.

When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.

 

Stay with me, baby stay with me,

Tonight don't leave me alone.

She shows me everything she used to know,

Picture frames and country roads,

When the days were long and the world was small.

 

She stood by as it fell apart,

Separate rooms and broken hearts,

But I won't be the one to let you go.

 

Oh, I'm not sure what this is gonna be,

But with my eyes closed all I see

Is the skyline, through the window,

The moon above you and the streets below.

 

Hold my breath as you're moving in,

Taste your lips and feel your skin.

When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.

 

Don't run away...

And it's hard to love again,

When the only way it's been,

When the only love you knew,

Just walked away...

If it's something that you want,

Darling you don't have to run,

You don't have to go ...

 

Just stay with me, baby stay with me,

 

Well, I'm not sure what this is gonna be,

But with my eyes closed all I see

Is the skyline, through the window,

The moon above you and the streets below. (Don't let go)

Hold my breath as you're moving in,

Taste your lips and feel your skin.

When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.

 

Oh, I'm not sure where this is gonna go,

But in this moment all I know

Is the skyline, through the window,

The moon above you and the streets below. (Baby, don't let go)

Hold my breath as you're moving in,

Taste your lips and feel your skin.

When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.

Don't hate me

I'm not special like you

I'm tired and I'm so alone

Don't fight me

I know you'll never care

Can I call you on the telephone now and then?

   

Girls always should stick together ♥ I have your back, girl

Come away with me

And I will write you a song . . .

 

. . . And I want to walk with you

On a cloudy day

In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high

So won't you try to come

I heard a fox sparrow calling, but it took me quite a while to spot it. Although it's in the open here, it was between two large clumps of blackberries, so out of sight except from this one view. Fortunately, this view had a decent background!

I prefer to stay in calmness in the evening now.

The days are long enough.

My back seems to be 'ok' so far (I don't have big expectations at the momen) but I can't wait the friday afternoon....

Thank you for all your words and feedback.

I wish you a good evening and go back to silence.

Your love Hit me like 45

Against the world you’re my ride or die

When you need me boy I’m showing up

You deserve perfect and I know I’m not

Get that forever type of feeling when I look in your eyes

Them other couples couldn’t of made it through the things we survived

I’m your Bonnie, I’m your Clyde

Til the end, I’m by your side

Your love hit me like 45

And shot me alive

Return to me...

... my heart then entered a spin

Dear me,

I´m sorry that you tried so desperately to fix others, when your own hands are shaking. I´m sorry that I didn´t give you enough time to heal, that I let you seal the wounds of everyone else while your own where bleeding. I´m sorry that there were days when smilling hurt but you forced yourself to laugh so that no one had to worry about you.

I´m sorry that you gave all of your time and effort to people that didn´t give the same amount back.

I´m sorry that there were nights when you cried yourself to sleep and no one bothered to understand why.

And I am so sorry that I did not love you, like you deserved to be loved.

Just a little quick edit because of my new avi and a little self reflection.

Feel free to try this out for you too. You won´t regret it :3 Like those challanges here or something ^.^

 

Btw I will catch up all the comments and private messages over the weekend. I promise!

Remember Me:

To the living, I am gone.

To the sorrowful, I will never return.

To the angry, I was cheated,

But to the happy, I am at peace,

And to the faithful, I have never left.

I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.

So as you stand upon a shore, gazing at a beautiful sea - remember me.

As you look in awe at a mighty forest and its grand majesty - remember me.

As you look upon a flower and admire its simplicity - remember me.

Remember me in your heart, your thoughts, your memories of the times we loved,

the times we cried, the times we fought, the times we laughed.

For if you always think of me, I will never be gone.

Margaret Mead

  

This morning as I walked the Autumn woods I was reminded yes to grieve but to enjoy this life for more than ever it is so precious. ~Have a great week dear friends! ~Sam
