Yes, there's a story here . . . which will hopefully be forthcoming!
While quickly searching in our garage for a *prop* to help me with a project I was assembling, I reached into a rectangular glass sandbox in which, over many years, I had saved odds and ends of broken artifacts. All of a sudden I literally screamed as I had not remembered putting this ceramic puppet's broken ear into the sand! So I've been spending time putting her back together, and she's almost ready for a show! Who said one can't make something new and creative from a sow's ear!?!
In preparation for an idea I have up my sleeve, I found the following quotations of interest! Enjoy!
"If anyone would have been paying serious attention to my puppet shows, I would have been sent to therapy very young."
~ Bob Balaban ~
"Everything in my career is my decision - every picture, every outfit. You get one chance at this, and I never saw myself as being a puppet."
~ Katherine Jenkins ~
"A puppet, for example, is just a piece of wood, a couple of rivets, but put them together, and if you know how to do it, and the audience's imagination joins in with this, then a miracle will come out of that machine. That is what we and the audience do in the theatre - we create miracles in that space."
~ Robert Lepage ~
"I usually hold a puppet and play with different voices until something happens and the right voice just hits me. Then, I'll pick a name that just seems to fit the character that naturally comes out.""
~ Darci Lynne Farmer ~
Michel Houellebecq :
La société érotique-publicitaire où nous vivons s'attache à organiser le désir, à développer le désir dans des proportions inouïes, tout en maintenant la satisfaction dans le domaine de la sphère privée. Pour que la société fonctionne, pour que la compétition continue, il faut que le désir croisse, s'étende et dévore la vie des hommes
The erotic-publicity minded society in which we live endeavours to organise and develop desire to unprecedented levels, while maintaining satisfaction within the sphere of private life. So that society may function and competition persist, desire must increase, spread out and devour the lives of men
La società erotico-pubblicitaria in cui viviamo si adopera a organizzare il desiderio, a sviluppare il desiderio in proporzioni inaudite, mantenendo la soddisfazione nella sfera della vita privata. Perché la società funzioni, perché la competizione continui, bisogna che il desiderio cresca, si estenda e divori la vita degli uomini
La sociedad erótico-publicitaria en la que vivimos se afana en organizar el deseo, en desarrollar el deseo hasta proporciones inauditas, mientras mantiene la satisfacción en la esfera privada. Para que la sociedad funcione, para que la competición continúe, es necesario que el deseo crezca, se extienda y devore la vida de los hombres
Die erotisch öffentlich eingestellte Gesellschaft in der wir leben befasst sich damit, das Verlangen zu organisieren und zu unerreichter Größe zu steigern und hält dabei die Befriedigung immer im privaten Bereich. Damit diese Gesellschaft funktioniert und der Wettbewerb weiter bestehen kann, muss das Verlangen wachsen, sich ausbreiten und das Leben der Menschen verschlingen
A sociedade erótico-publicitária em que vivemos desdobra-se para organizar o desejo, para desenvolver o desejo de modo exagerado, mantendo a satisfação na esfera privada. Para que a sociedade funcione, para que a competição continue, é preciso fazer com que o desejo aumente, até que devore a vida dos homens
After selecting the quotation by Tagore, these words came to me:
when our steps are suddenly broken
and our climb is thus impaired
may we embrace this time
to travel within
to pause, reflect and begin
a g a i n . . .
“Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
in the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever widening thought and action....
into that heaven of freedom, my father, let my country awake.”
~ Rabindranath Tagore ~
. . . a strange reality has united all humankind
in a new kind of protection, all over the world . . .
I looked at over 100 quotations on *protection* and only one came slightly close to my feelings . . . and it was based on Confidence . . .
"Confidence ...
thrives on honesty,
on honor,
on the sacredness of obligations,
on faithful protection
and on unselfish performance.
Without them it cannot live."
~Franklin D. Roosevelt ~
We need to have *confidence* that we will get through this pandemic. Prayers for all humankind . . .

No Quotation this time, but a story. Yesterday I read a very interesting article about street non-photography during night time.
I was intrigued to try it out and left my tripod, remote and lenses at home. I just picked my 50mm 1.4 lens and tried some night (non-)photography. While I was walking through the pedestrian zone of my hometown, I met Torsten, who was standing in the middle of the road.
He was accompanied by a big sports bag and a bottle of beer, selling his "revolutionary newspaper", a political science fiction romance.
In Torstens own words this novel contained suspence from the first to the last sentence and talked about aliens, religion, conspiracy, the UN and the WHO
......all on 5 handwritten pages.
He was selliing his literary debut for a discount price of 1 Euro.
I couldn't really force myself do buy a copy after reading the first sentence, but I gave him the Euro anyway and asked for his approval to take his picture instead.
So here it is, Torsten and his novel at 3200 iso on a monday evening in my first conscious non-photography shot. If you can read german and want to desperatly read torstens "book", give me a shout and I arrange contact with him.
Plants stay alive in any climate needing light rays, flourish within windy days, sparkling at sunlight, often wondering how artists get to draw such splendour.
The inscription which I have put on the glass jar reads:
If thou of fortune be bereft
And in thy store have but two loaves left,
Sell one and with the dole
Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul.
I came across a few funny and silly Quotations, and I want to share with you.I hope their make you laugh.
A fellow photographer taught me these principles. She didn't use these words; I just condensed her concepts.
It took me four months to learn the first one after I got a new camera. I'm still chasing the second one...
Quotation from In The Flesh - Pink Floyd (The Wall)
Love this kind of look that said: "What a hell?"
Have a great Thursday my friends :)
After a long while in the shadowed stream of life, as we live on for half a century or more into adulthood, we keep forgetting that we won't be around for much longer, and by no surprise we cannot get away no matter what happens!
If you truly love someone, let it be known, because very often broken hearts succumb to sadness because of unspoken words.
Just messing about with IPiccy :))))))
Please feel free to add any favourites you may have, my dear flickr friends :))),
Keep Smiling :)))))

This image was posted for the 1/30/15 challenge at Digitalmania (www.flickr.com/groups/digitalmania/pool/) to use an affirmative quotation about art in images.
Also posted for the Feb 2015 challenge at The Hypothetical Awards (www.flickr.com/groups/1179479@N25/discuss/), theme: Passion for Photography, Love of Art.
I used "Art is Life. Life is Art" as my quotation for this image. The quote has been attributed to both Kahlil Gibran and Deiter Rot (or Roth.) Yoko Ono also said, “Art is my life and my life is art.”
Regardless of who said it, it has always been one of my favorite art quotations.
I used trees as symbols of life and the up-side-down trees as roots that go deep, beyond what is seen with the naked eye. The circle is symbolic of the life cycle. The gradual change from black and white realistic photo to colorful abstract art represents how an artist views the world, not as what is, but what can be.
NOTE: I replaced the image with a different version on 2/7/15. I thought the text obliterated some of the more interesting parts of the background and it was bothering me for several days, so I finally changed and reposted it. The image is the same; only the text size & placement has changed.

Serendipity is visiting again! Wanted to get away from the "casino" images and back to wild life (an oxymoron here?). This piece reminds me of a burst of nature. I love how certain images imply immediate words and reactions to those words . . . how my mind wanders, holding hands with those words, walking down unknown paths in my mind.
HOWEVER, look what quotations came up for me today! References, quite coincidentally, to my last post of the casino, high in the sky!
“Spirit has given us a wonderful window into the very ancient past of Mars. It was a violent place, a place where meteorite impacts, volcanic explosions happened frequently, where hot stuff was raining from the sky.” ~ Steve Squyres ~
“You're benefiting from the explosion of the casinos. They give artists chances to be seen in new markets, and the casinos can pay a good amount of money to bring in these acts.” ~ Gary Bongiovanni ~
I don't necessarily agree with the latter statement, but it's certainly food for thought! I guess, as artists, we must all get used to exposure, along with the explosions which occur in our minds!
I think I'm going to BURST with new ideas for the day! Have a wonderfully explosive week, my friends!
“Grant me some wild expressions, Heavens, or I shall burst.” ~ George Farquhar ~
"If you can't find a way create one"
and
"Always take into consideration the fact that you might be dead wrong"
