Once upon a time my camera was broken

 So if Newton can walk a beach and admire the stones, why can't I?

                      A bag of colourful stones gathered at various times in various places.

I am taking my inspiration from some pottery Vicki found attractive while I was training to run a race in Thüringen, along the Rennsteig.

So here is the sculpture:

Vicki and I actually saw an eagle catch a fish at Chatterton Falls in 1991 when we left the cameras in the tent. But the memories ...

So  I did a preliminary in Killarney in August 2015:

Vicki's camera was used to capture the ephemeral.

Then when she was away in 2018 I had the balcony for my stage,

 

Es ist absichtlich frei - zu wiederholen, zu leben, zu atmen, und weiter zu fliegen und schwimmen.

Do I need to translate that?

Greetings from Muskoka

 And I don't mean the chair!

This is Jan's successful interaction in soothing international tensions:

It is the annual "studio tour" of art by Mother Nature and her friends. We were "out and about" yesterday.

We saw some countryside.

Reflected

in artists' work -

The above canvas was illuminated by sunlight entering through a window in the upper left. There had been strong shadows, However, by waiting for the rain clouds to move about appropriately I was able to get this spotlight.

After 3 years of Covid, I found the artists very open to discussion. Maybe they always were and it is I who is more open?

Stand and wait

 "When I Consider How My Light is Spent" 

F-stop, shutter speed, ISO,

half my days, in this dark world . as an astronomer.

Can I stand on one leg and make a living?

To see the world as others see it, to understand -

Instead of just awishin

 So is it the new camera, or simply me talking quietly to fellow bird brains, chawin' away about favourite fishing holes?

Seems obvious, doesn't it!

When one talks about fishing one doesn't often talk about how important "foot work" is, and the necessity to keep "feet".

It obviously pays off.

Gone Fishing

 I was out walking along the shore when I saw the following:

Not bad. And before I could move on the Heron did an encore:

Actually, it was successful every minute or so.

Autumn has arrived

What a complex web is woven

 Many decades ago I saw a spider's web, back-lit, with rainbow raindrops - yes! - but maybe via diffraction and not refraction. So a couple of days ago I paddled under some branches looking for that tangled web we weave.

I don't know why but these images remind me of music? An orchestral arrangement? I must ask my composer-conductor friends how they feel - what vibs they sense.

I moved the kayak ever so slightly -

All creatures, great and small.
