Sample from “Detail Close Ups”

“Detail, Onion Burst”
*

*
my first choice was to present another cluster combination
but the sight of this lone white onion flower, well 😉
a swipe of the sharpening tool was all i used
*
the delicacy of the light’s shading, and the tints shimmering within the shades, both mirroring the gradations of light and dark among the background shadows, gives me a sense of continuity, even with the isolation in the foreground of the white coiled flower
it’s as if the bulb were whispering to the figure-like cross of green to its right
colors and shapes! yes, nature is a beauty…
*
we’d moved from galveston to austin at the start of the new century, and by summer 2000, we were in an older house near downtown, and in the northwest corner of the long backyard, these onions grew wild, coming out in the early fall, after the heat had left for awhile
people would tell me to mow them down with the grass, but i liked them too much
they were hardy, and they were pretty
i wanted to kinda honor them
pictures can do that 😉

Three Day Weekend
we were blessed, we were rested, we were ready
to go!
but the weather channel warned
be wary, or be wet
we waited

Final Thoughts For Article
it’s exciting to be able to offer a digital edition of a work like “photography plus” !!
the images can be re-sized for a closer look
i can enclose detail shots for an even closer look
special features like the photo-poem can be incuded
even a couple of poems or more can be added
plus i can link in and out of my commentary, adding paths to illustrate the ideas
this is exciting! 😉
did i mention i get to bring in yogic and fitness thought, and blend it right into the conversation about the photos!
i’ve even enclosed one yoga-heavy article of how i used photos, to help tell a story of heart openers that reflect and generate gratitude!
yes, very exciting 😉 i hope you’ll take a look, tell your friends, and if so, let me know also 😉
namaste – con dios – god be with you
