Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel
And in the naked light, I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
The Marlborough Sounds is made up of four distinctly different Sounds - Queen Charlotte, Kenepuru, Pelorus, and Mahau, at the top of New Zealand's South Island. The winding waterways of the Marlborough Sounds make for brilliant boating, fishing, diving and wildlife viewing including dolphin watching.
The Marlborough Sounds offer a spectacular environment for adventures. The 73 kilometre Queen Charlotte Track are a hiking and mountain-biking paradise. Surrounding the Queen Charlotte Track you’ll find 1500 kilometres of breathtaking Marlborough Sounds’ coastine – one fifth of New Zealand’s total coastline – a magical place for exploring by sea kayak.
Stunning coastal views and native bush make the Queen Charlotte Track a uniquely Marlborough walking and biking experience.
We took the boat to mistletoe bay, walked to Onahau lookout and then back to Anakiwa
Heavy rain on the famous Doubtful Sound, a beautiful fjord in Fiordland National Park / New Zealand.
It is the deepest and second longest fjord in New Zealand.
The area is extremely rainy, in neighboring Milford Sound the annual rainfall is 8000mm!
Puget Sound as all the waters south of three entrances from the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The main entrance at Admiralty Inlet is defined as a line between Point Wilson on the Olympic Peninsula, and Point Partridge on Whidbey Island. The second entrance is at Deception Pass along a line from West Point on Whidbey Island, to Deception Island, then to Rosario Head on Fidalgo Island. The third entrance is at the south end of the Swinomish Channel, which connects Skagit Bay and Padilla Bay.

No more the schoolyard sounds of giggling girls and boasting boys in the once booming gold mining town of Bannack, Montana. They exist only in our minds now, and on the tattered pages of the school records and journals.
Doubtful sound in Southland on the Tasman sea, New Zealand, gets its name from Captain Cooke in 1770 as he was uncertain if was suitable for navigation (he named it doubtful harbour and was later renamed to doubtful sound). It however a fjord rather than a sound.

For "Sound" it had to be my violin. If I don't play it (and I know I should, but, oh dear, the overcoming!), I can at least honour it with a bit of Flickr sunshine from time to time. Maybe I should work on my "scratch resitance" (sound-wise), it might help me to get over the first caterwauling hours of exercise after so many years of not practicing ;-)
This, you've guessed it, is a small part of the F hole, about 2 cm / 0,78 inches wide. I decided to go for a slightly more "obscure", kind of vague low key look with a very shallow DOF, because when it comes to music, sound in general, it often is not very clear at all why we like a song, a specific sound, or why we positively hate it. Sound, music moves us, either way.
I have a busy day today, so I can only stop by here today occasionally, I hope to catch up with you later! HMM, Everyone, and have a nice and safe week ahead!
Für das Thema "Sound" musste es meine Geige sein. Wenn ich sie schon nicht spiele (ich sollte, ich weiß, aber die Überwindung!), kann ich ihr wenigstens von Zeit zu Zeit ein wenig Flickr-Sonnenschein gönnen. Vielleicht sollte ich an meiner (klanglichen) Kratzfestigkeit arbeiten, um, nach so langer Zeit des Nichtspielens, die ersten Stunden des Katzenjammers zu überstehen, bis es wieder rund klingt ;-)
Dies ist, Ihr habt es schon erraten, ein Teil des F-Lochs. Ich habe hier bewusst auf geringe Schärfentiefe gesetzt, um den Charakter von Musik, von Klang generell zu verbildlichen. Wir können ja oft gar nicht definieren, warum wir ein Musikstück mögen oder einen bestimmten Klang geradzu hassen. Musik, Klang bewegt, so oder so.
Ich habe heute viel zu tun und kann hier nur gelegentlich reinschauen. Ich hoffe, heute Abend wieder mehr Zeit für Euch und auch den MM zu haben. Ich wünsche Euch eine schöne neue Woche, liebe Flickr-Freunde, passt gut auf Euch auf!
Of course the coast has spectacular sunsets, the sun dipping down into the sound is likely a sight I wont soon forget. I knew I wanted a good sunset, though when I had originally considered the idea I had wanted to do a sunset at one of the lighthouses. Those plans fell apart, so I headed back to Corolla, and wandered down towards the docks.. There was a bit of a party taking place there, so I meandered my way around to get out of the way, and here we have it. A lovely shot into Currituck Sound, gentle reflections, clouds rolling through the sky, the long exposure hiding some of the people.

A very nice Flickr Friend mentioned the song Sounds of Silence on one of my photos and then of course this marvelous song goes through my head each time I am in the same modus I was at the time he mentioned it 😋
We do get influenced upon words, but it's my own choice if I allow it deeper in.
How cool isn't that.
Welcome Sounds of Silence 🙏
The sound of bluebirds approaching the yard is a joyful sound indeed.
Lady and Mr. B seem to be getting serious about checking out the nest box. They are going in it and out of it often throughout the day. One will perch on top while the other one goes inside. The one that goes in, flies out to oak three and the other one goes inside. In addition, they are visiting the yard together on occasion without the other two males. This activity has me checking the nest cam daily for a piece of moss or a stick.
Former bluebirds always placed a single item in the box and checked on it several times daily before building a nest. That's when you know they are really serious. Once they are satisfied that the box is safe, nest building happens rather quickly.
May I say thank you in advance for the faves, comments and visits. I have somehow injured my wrist and typing is difficult at the moment.
I hope your day is filled with beautiful sights, sounds and true joy. Happy snapping.

Sounds of Silence
Disturbed
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams, I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light, I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
Then the sign said, "The words on the prophets are written on the subway walls
In tenement halls"
And whispered in the sound of silence

Milford Sound is a fiord in the southwest of New Zealand’s South Island. It’s known for towering Mitre Peak, plus rainforests and waterfalls like Stirling and Bowen falls, which plummet down its sheer sides. The fiord is home to fur seal colonies, penguins and dolphins. Milford Discovery Centre and Underwater Observatory offers views of rare black coral and other marine life. Boat tours are a popular way to explore.
