"Don't ask me to surrender"
Her voice fell tired and spent
"My hopes and dreams,
a silent heart I carry here within"
her outstretched wings, left tattered
A sail aged with rust
"a breath in time, that's yours and mine...
it belongs to only us."
And I will write her name and cast it to the sky
silhouettes recede into a mother's tearful eyes
a host of angels clamor to her side
a light dissolves to kiss the wind, release the dragonfly.

My mind has really been mush lately. I dont care to think or plan or be inspired. So, I sat down with nothing in mind and spent the evening layering colors and making textures and doing something enjoyably abstract

Week 15
Artistic: Metal
Cold, hard steel. Shiny Aluminum. Or even rusted and broken down. Find your inspiration in metal this week.
Dug this out of the archives from October 2012 for submission to a challenge for Rust, Rusty, Rustic.
The earthen cliffs above this beach are steadily collapsing, and exposed with erosion is the random buried trash of generations past. No plastic, just metal, dating to a time when rust was king. This tiny radiator weighed way more than I expected, took most my strength to wrench it up and set it standing. All the rocks jammed in by tidal action didn't make things any easier. It's simple to say that last century's garbage is somehow more charming, but it was ditched just the same with no regard for recycling. I'd call this buried treasure, but mostly worthless after the effort to drag it home and scrap it. So I'll let the water do its worst, maybe some aquatic creature can call it home. I'll just call this beauty an ugly curiosity.

Scavenger Challenge – October 2018 Assignment – Triangles
Our subject this month is "triangles." This could be a single naturally-occurring object like a piece of broken shell, or it could be something man-made like a traffic cone. It could also be something more subtle, like a beach scene in which three people form a "visual triangle" because they are standing at the points. In this case, the "triangle" should be immediately obvious to anyone looking at the photo. In other words, the three people occur as the elements of photographic (artistic) composition. The remainder of the photo should be relatively uncluttered. You want the viewer's eye to be caught by the three points.

Rust is a small town on the shore of the Neusiedler See in Burgenland, Austria. It is extremely picturesque and famous for its wine and storks:) There is really a great number of these lovely birds, but I wasn't able to capture one without a telephoto lens.
