Silence the surrounds to still the mind, to still the soul, to slow the pace, to breathe, just to breathe. When you've been one round with The Black Dog Bitch, it's exhausting. Every movement you make seems to Take. So. Much. Effort. You feel the pressure of the happy-smiley people and the fast-paced society. Hey, are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay. Not. Because it's too damn tiring explaining something to someone who doesn't get the bitch. You know. You know it's okay: it's OKAY to wrap yourself into your own swaddle of silence, to rest, to be still, to love only you. Everyone can take care of themselves until you're ready again.
Where is my oasis? Too far from
here for me to crawl with these
dead legs, refusing to co-operate
Hands and fingers clawing uselessly
through the grains of sand...”

The image for today was taken this late this afternoon between the Broadgate area and the Cathedral Quarter in Coventry City centre. The view is of the Grade I listed Holy Trinity Church. The original church was built about the beginning of the 12th century. It seems that the church was built as a side chapel for the much larger Benedictine Priory of St Mary (the First of Coventry's Three Cathedral's) which was located next door to Holy Trinity and founded by Earl Leofric and Lady Godiva. During the Mid 13th Century the church was nearly completely destroyed in a fire, the only part of the original church to survive was the North Porch (which still survives to this day). During the 15th Century the painting of the Last Judgement was created above the tower arch. This is now considered to be one of the most impressive Doom wall-painting now remaining in an English church. One of the many famous local people known to attend Holy Trinity church over the years was Mary Ann Evans, the 19th century novelist better known by her pen name of George Eliot.
The photo was taken using the app KitCam on my iPhone 6.
First I used the app Snapseed to edit the photo. I Cropped the image and applied the Tonal Contrast filter. I then boosted the Contrast, Saturation, Ambiance, Shadows and Warmth. I also added a vignette and decreased the Highlights to help bring out some more detail in the sky. Next I used the app Stackables to apply the formula called Ancient Ruins. I then used the app DistressedFX to add the Stirred overlay and the Bliss texture. Finally I used PhotoToaster to add the Warm preset, the Drama FX and a Medium Dark Vignette. I then applied the Scratched texture and the Leather frame.
“I became aware that there was no barrier between what was inside and what was outside. My body was illuminated by a bright light. I heard with my eyes and saw with my ears. I used my nose as mouth and my mouth as nose. I experienced the world with the totality of my senses as my spirit gathered and my form dissolved. There was no distinction between muscles and bones. My body stopped being heavy and I felt like a floating leaf. Without knowing it, I was being carried by the wind. Drifting here and there, I did not know whether I rode on the wind or the wind rode on me.”

As I was coming out of my apartment to get the bus one foggy morning this week, I noticed several old spider webs on the railings which were covered in dew. I took several shots with my macro lens. I noticed that I could see the reflection of the apartment in the drops. I played with the colors and added the bokeh texture for drama, and I flipped it upside down. I thought it worked better as a composition and really increased the brightness of the drops of water. The textures were created by me with the Stackables App on my iPhone. #stackablesapp

And here is another from my day at the zoo.
This one posted for Sliders Sunday, but it's far from happy.
This exemplifies my problem with visiting a zoo, and especially viewing the primates.
This had originally been made with the Fuji, then turned into line art and sent to my iPhone. There in the Stackables app, various versions were created and then exported back to the computer where in Ps, they were combined and edited some more.
Waiting for the ferry after work and praying that the rain held off because I forgot my umbrella, I noticed the lone sailboat briskly making it's way to dock. It looked like it was trying to outrun the rain also, but it was right under a large, imposing cloud. #stackablesapp
