30 Days of Perception: Day 6
Following the gesture and movements of the branches of the trees.
Every morning, I take a pre-dawn walk to listen to birdsong and enjoy a brief moment of free movement before the rest of the world wakes up.
Visual Magick’s Igneous mods for the Kobold are beautiful beyond words! I’m wearing Lava, and its definitely HOT! I had a lot of fun playing with particle fire to take the last 2 photos. :)
Chameleons are absolutely fascinating animals. They are able to watch in two different directions at the same time.
My better half Jerri is the Big Cheese of Orchids here... This was taken in her Orchid House. Thanks for the Visit and have a Large Tuesday.
Day 24 of 365
I took this photograph couple of days ago while we were heading to library with Aura. In my mind this picture compares very closely to Day 19. Not only is it taken almost from the same spot, but the light is a bit similar and again the whole picture is based on a very well known visual motif of silhouette figure. I hope the guy is at least someone else this time! When I took that earlier picture, I wrote about feeling mixed about it because pictures which are too much based on known visual motifs become clichés easily. Looking it now, I feel I need to lighten my stance and focus it a bit.
I don't want to be against visual motifs. If you look at the history of photography, it quickly becomes clear that it isn't reasonable stance to take. As a matter of fact, many classic photographs can be considered, if not only to be based on visual motifs, but also something which have created them in the first place. Like someone who commented my earlier picture said, there are only a finite number of different visual motifs, maybe just a few hundred. And being 'language of photography' they can be put to use in different ways, which means that the motifs don't control photography as much as one would think. So, yes I'm lightening my stance here, but here comes the focus part. I think that if photography is solely based on repeating these visual motifs, it is reduced, I think, to be repeated for didactic purposes. To me, some genres of photography are close to this, but I can understand there are different approaches to this. In my mind I would like to think that good photography also needs a context, a story or some other 'interpretative dimension' to make them something more than just 'pictures of the world'. I know it's a challenging claim to make, but it is also very much something that I need to learn myself too.

haha. We totally look like we're in a visual kei band. I'm the lead guitarist and Severine is the dark, tortured singer.
Visual Magick made these adorable inflatable shark mods!!!! Look at that face! Those hand holds! I want to float away somewhere when I wear this mod! There is even a walker included with squeeky sounds! Comical! Rubber! Adorable! Check-ch-check-check-check-ch-check it out! What-wha-what-what-what’s it all about?!

I’m deliriously tired so that might have been a strange review lol.
30 Days of Perception - Day 6
"Movement through gesture is a form of communication.
All phenomena are animate and expressive."
Kim Manley-Ort
As we express ourselves through gesture, movement and body language, so do all living things, including plants.
I cut a small branch of ivy to put in a vase to illustrate how the graceful movements suggest body language. I notice how the tiny new branches take directions of their own away from the main stem and how each leaf has its own personal expression. When I observe the movement of the branch, I enter into communication with the way it expresses itself. It's as if I can feel a movement and sway.
Quite amazed but happy to find the Mod Revival at the aquarium end of Madeira Drive today. Amazed because B&H council closed Madeira Drive to vehicles at the start of lockdown. It was for use by cycles and pedestrians only. This caused no end of trouble (to put it mildly) in Brighton and Hove.
Jökulsárlón is a visual dream if you like landscapes or even if you don't....:) The sunset was extremely spectacular that evening and although the wind was too fierce for cool sunset reflection shots, it was still a real nice photographic moment...
