It's been a busy year for creative outputs and there's no slowdown ahead. There's also been a lot of self-awareness learning going on around here lately. Amazingly, a lot of it revolves around the benefits of a more decluttered life. So, we've been contemplating the pros and cons of what to do with all our … Continue reading Clutter or Opportunity? I know what I’m choosing!
Deep, Philosophical Sadness
The sadness is mostly in the eyes for this guy, and maybe I took the easy road to connecting the feeling of his being philosophical, because of the beard. The funny thing is that the image that inspired this one was most definitely not Sophocles. Regardless of the source material, something inside me was coming … Continue reading Deep, Philosophical Sadness
Contemplating A Darkness
Something deliciously evil just came over this guy's mind and we are witnessing the beginning of the smile of awareness, as well as the subtle shadow that is growing from the right side of his face. He is looking right at you with a secret knowing. What did you ask him to get this look? … Continue reading Contemplating A Darkness
Vibrant Galaxies
A different perspective on the Tethered Biospheres photo. Perhaps I've been watching too much Star Trek lately, but it does look like those galaxies they are always encountering. The mysterious nebulas. I simply hyper saturated the colours and the extra luminescence appeared. My imaginations flew me through this wonderful vision of outer space. For more … Continue reading Vibrant Galaxies
Tethered Biospheres
Can you picture a futuristic cityscape, where the communities are vast biospheres floating in the sky and tethered to the earth? That's what I saw when I crouched down into the buggy grasses and looked across this field. Perhaps these are the skeletal remains of one off these fantasy world-scapes. For more of my photo … Continue reading Tethered Biospheres
Sunset Time
I am simply fascinated by this plant. The intricately interwoven filaments that form a nearly perfect sphere are gorgeous. I zoomed in and focused on the sphere itself, contrasting out the greenery behind it. The final effect was that it appeared as if the setting sun was illuminating it. I fond it beautiful! For more … Continue reading Sunset Time
Ready To Launch
This is the final edit that hit an interesting detour in the form of "Mother Nature's Fireworks". From far, these plants seem dead, but up close we see intelligent life in the fine details of the construction. Each seed pod is attached to the finest web of silky tendrils that will allow it to float … Continue reading Ready To Launch
Mother Nature’s Fireworks
Letting go and just going extreme on the digital manipulations occasionally reveals more than expected. I was hoping to expose the infinitesimal details in this flower, just before it was about to explode and release its seed pods to the whims of the wind. I got stopped in my tracks when I got to this … Continue reading Mother Nature’s Fireworks
A Top The Canopy
While this is a view of a field densely covered with foliage, it reminded me of the fly-over views of jungles we can see in those amazing BBC nature series. There always seems to be a few trees that rise high above the canopy and sparkle in the sun. I saw this with my naked … Continue reading A Top The Canopy
Transformations With Life #12 – The Island
During my walk this morning, I deviated through a buggy and bushy field. I came across this tenacious little tree growing in a dry patch. It looked like an island of life in the sea of dead grass. They it hit me that it could be even more of an island. I decided to combine … Continue reading Transformations With Life #12 – The Island
