I know that i don\'t know you.
Look in my eyes
I know you see the love inside me.
I know that you\'re scared,
but I\'m not gonna hurt you .
Just give me your hand (give me your hand)
I\'ll show you love is never ending,
We will fly away, and never look back again, no
I wanna take you away,
I got a little house where we can stay.
I wanna make you my own.
If you don\'t try you\'ll never know.
\'Cause I could be the love of your life.
Until you make up your mind,
I\'m gonna spend my time thinking of you.
You don\'t have to hide ,
Cause I will be your protector.
Let\'s take a ride,
On a trip that\'s gonna last forever,
I\'m positive this will work (it\'s gonna work)
You\'re smiling cause you know you feel it too.
, all I ever wanted was you.
The statue of Abraham Lincoln statue has sat at atop Bascom Hill on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus for more than a century. The statue is a replica of Adolph A. Weinman's original, erected in Hodgenville, Ky., where Lincoln was born. Lincoln is considered a patron of the university because he signed the Morrill Act in 1862 to provide federal aid to land-grant colleges such as UW-Madison.

He couldn't get her out of his head. He saw her face, wherever he looked. He saw it in trees and leaves, in rivers and lakes, and in the clouds in his coffee, when he slowly stirred the cream, while contemplating: Would he ever see her again?
Er bekam sie nicht aus seinem Kopf. Er sah ihr Gesicht, wohin auch immer er schaute. Er sah es in Bäumen und Blättern, in Flüssen und Seen, und in seinem Kaffee, wenn er die Kaffeesahne hineinrührte, während er nachsann: Würde er sie je wiedersehen?
this is about one of those times when you feel like the weight of the whole world rests on your shoulders

I was practicing on my camera when I saw this boy who was less than a year old. He stole my attention when I saw his expression...deeply thinking about something and yet less than a year old.

Of all the Oaxacan Folk Art forms, Alebrijes may be the most renown - - to the point that the Spanish Royal Academy recently added the term “Alebrije” to that nation’s official language dictionary. Before discussing Alebrijes as Mexican Artwork, it might be a good idea to explain what, exactly, they are.
Perhaps the best way to describe Alebrije is “fantastical animal.” And, the best way to describe Oxacan Alebrijes is “fantastic fantastical animals!” Based on many of God’s creatures, particularly birds, legend has it that while very ill Alebrije creator Pedro Linares Lopez had a feverish dream where he saw many mythical creatures and when he recovered he stated making papier mache piñatas featuring them.
Oaxacan Alebrijes were pioneered by Manuel Jimenez, who began making intricate woodcarvings and artistically painting them. Soon, other local artisans began developing their own styles and one of the most popular Mexican Art Forms was born. Each Alebrijes is a “one of a kind” creation, and the very life-blood for the artisans who create them. Living in and around Oaxaca City, the capital of one of Mexico’s poorest states, these individuals are using their Oaxacan Animal Carvings to support their families and to ensure that economic survival does not pass them by.
Interestingly enough, the first step in creating Oaxacan Wood Carvings involves only thinking. The Artisans who specialize in these Oaxacan Carved Animals have to, basically, “daydream” of the Fantastical Animal they want to create. Once this is accomplished, they need to collect the medium they intend to work with.
The ideal “raw material” for the Folk Art Carvings comes from the “copalillo” (copal) tree.
There are “male” and “female” copal trees, with the “prime” one being the female tree, as it has no “knots” in the bark, and also has a pleasant “lime” fragrance.
Once retrieved, the tree section is typically allowed to dry in the sun. Then, the carving begins - first with a machete and then more delicate and sharper blades. Additional time is allowed for drying before the next step begins. Depending on the artist, this may take place in the shade, as opposed to being placed directly in the suns rays, thus ensuring that the drying is not as abrupt and appears more natural.
Sanding next takes place, making the figure completely smooth. Often gasoline, or another similar type of liquid, is rubbed on to the Alebrije to protect against powder-post beetles and other such insects. The Alebrije is now ready to be painted and decorated.
Needless to say, the more intricate and colorful the Alebrije is the more time the Oaxacan Animal Sculptors put into it. As mentioned, each one is totally unique - - a “one and only” item that will never be replicated!

i'll take part in Wishful Thinking exhibition in Prague. Cover photo is from my project You are my sunshine.
Hope its a good day for you all. As I post this the sun is shining and I am thinking about what sort of mischief I can get upto for the rest of the day 😉 Here is a tune for you all I recorded last February. Its a Violin and synth tune with a lush orchestration. Its starts slowly and dreamily then the beats kick in. Ideal for dancing around your lounge after too many cans of cheap larger and/or other relaxants.
it's true. i've been thinking about it a lot lately [i have no idea why], but when i love someone, i really love them with my entire being. To me, love has no half-way mark... you can't "kind-of" love someone. You just do, or you don't. At least for me. It's black & white. Not to say that those you don't 'love' mean nothing to you... you can like people, even like them a lot. But to me, love is reserved for just those whom i truly adore. It's funny how four letters can mean so much.
if i love you, i love you with my whole heart, my entire being.

hope everyone had a merry christmas!!!
I chose this title "Thinking" because I want to describe how I take a photo, it's not just holding the camera in hand and finding a clishe angle and shooting. Before I press the shutter or even hold the camera, I try to convert what is in my mind into a picture with the objects that are in that environment and choose the best angle that describes it, and after that I take the camera to convert the picture in my mind into a digital file.
