eh! qu'aimez-vous donc, extraordinaire étranger ?

j'aime les nuages . . . les nuages qui passent . . . là-bas . . . là-bas . . .les merveilleux nuages!

"what do you love then, extraordinary stranger?

i love the clouds ... the passing clouds ... there ... there ... the wonderful clouds"

never be afraid to fail, by being yourself you are individual and failure is part of succeeding, it's better to fail trying to be different then to be a benign succees

Saturday the day after the night before ... or something like that ... my new baby arrived yesterday and its now unpacked and up and running, the idea behind it was so that i could have more control over depth of field in what i take as i've missed that with my beautiful little "Lumix" (which will always have a place in my heart)

Farewell
Farewell to Thee!  But not farewell,To all my fondest thoughts of Thee;
Within my heart they still shall dwell, And they shall cheer and comfort me.

Nothing is lost that Thou didst give, Nothing destroyed that Thou hast done.

Anne Bronte
1820-1849

Every good painter paints what he is, It doesn't matter how the paint is put on, as long as something is said

Jackson Pollock

as the great man said, anyone who captures art in whatever form is working with space and time and expressing his feelings rather than just illustrating.

For me, an image is the sum of its destructions.

- Pablo Picasso, 1954

the pictures of my beloved old Canon have raised some eyebrows but i found it quite refreshing to do what i did (its only water)... if the weather had been better (cloud was too dense i wanted blue up there as well) i'd have been out there in the muddy fields and found a dirty puddle and the pictures would have been very different and carried more impact maybe.  the weekend isnt over yet though is it, you'll have to wait and see if i come up with more images

Tolerance is the basic prerequisite for a humane society. Have its goals become confused?

wishing all of my friends a happy easter ....

and now the words that pulsate within me come out to bring new understanding to the distant memories that provoke the darkness i show through my pictures

i am happy to show myself because thats who i am ...

life is dark for me ...

thats the last March sunrise for me this year, was out there very early, took far too many pictures 108 and have only put a few up here for you to see, if you want to see more then ask or send me you email addy ... life is strange i don't think i'm good at what i capture but i just capture what i see ... enjoy

ive added three wonderful pictures one of which is a very adult picture but for its sheer beauty and the skill of the artist its there, art will always be judged by people and views on what is or isnt artistic will always be open for debate, to like something purely for how it makes you feel is one of lifes requirements, if something fascinates the eyes and provides a sensation within you then its art ... why we create it and why it stirs feelings in others make each of us very individual and we are all "artists"

lifes a little bit strange in that when you suddenly find yourself alone theres no-one to share anything with

had to take a couple of days off ... i need time to breathe
ahhhhhhhhhh last FM i'd forgotten about showing you what i listen to
