What goes up!
I see this chap in and around Rochester on a regular basis. Today he was painting outside Rocket, and Nucleus Arts. So I stopped opposite and took several shots using my Leica X and using manual settings. Hope you all like for the weekend.
If I were a painter
I would paint my reverie
If that's the only way for you to be with me
We'd be there together
Just like we used to be
Undertneath the swirling skies for all to see
And I'm dreaming of a place
Where I could see your face
And I think my brush would take me there
But only...
If I were a painter
And could paint a memory
I'd climb inside the swirling skies to be with you
I'd climb inside the skies to be with you
Norah Jones
And it was at that age
poetry arrived in search
of me. I don't know where
it came from, from winter
or a river. I don't know how
or when, not voices, not words,
nor silence, but from a street
I was summoned, from
the branches of night,
abruptly from the others,
among violent fires
or returning alone,
there I was without a face
and it touched me.
I did not know what to say,
my mouth had no way
with names,
my eyes were blind,
and something started
in my soul, fever
or forgotten wings,
and I made my own way,
deciphering that fire,
and I wrote the first faint line,
faint, without substance, pure
nonsense, pure wisdom
of someone who knows nothing,
and suddenly I saw
the heavens
unfastened
and open,
planets, fire and flowers,
the winding night, the universe.
And I, infinitesimal being,
drunk with the great starry void,
image of mystery,
felt myself a pure part
of the abyss,
I wheeled with the stars,
my heart broke loose
on the wind.
--Pablo Neruda
From a distance, these California Poppies in this cliffside reminded me of dabs of orange paint on stone, so I experimented a little with the processing to strengthen that particular visual. View large on black.
