A little fun with Abstract!

"Form itself, even if completely abstract...has its own inner sound."

Wassily Kandinsky

I've never been a fan of Kandinsky's art...

but I resonated with this quote!

The Value of Flowers...

"Where words fail, flowers possess the power to express

thousands of emotions.  It makes a bold statement that a single ray

of beauty can out value all the materialistic things in the world."

Unknown

 

The Life and Breath of the Photographer...

"It is all very beautiful and magical here---a quality which cannot be described.

You have to live it and breathe it, let the sun bake it into you.

The skies and land are so enormous, and the detail so precise and exquisite

that where you are you are isolated in a glowing world

between the macro and the micro, where everything is sidewise under and over you,

and the clocks stopped long ago."

Ansel Adams

On a Mission...

Sydney Sails...Black and White

"Photography is more than a medium 

for factual communication of ideas.

It is a creative art."

Ansel Adams

It's a Maze!

"I have a theory that when you're lost on a path,

go back to the beginning and try the maze again."

Amanda Seales

The Flower of Happiness!

"Happiness held is the seed; 

Happiness shared is the flower."

John Harrigan

First time doing glass ball photography!

"Art doesn't just happen by accident.

It is about pulling out new tricks and trying new things."

Nicholas Meyer

Not bad for holding the ball with one hand and the camera

with the other hand!

Solving the World's Problems...

"Being on a boat that's moving through the water,

it's so clear.

Everything falls into place in terms of what's important 

and what's not."

James Taylor

everyone should have a dog that will worship him...
