What rhymes with orange?
A sunset, of a different kind
Only this short homage
Was for it today assigned

FIVE:

Perky little red thing
Makes you want to sing
It thought it was the king
But found out with a sting
It was just a fling

FOUR:

On the bare black branches
Which leaves have now neglected
The last evening light reflected
As the sun slowly dances
Into the night’s darkness

THREE:

Pretty red flower
Over the others will tower
Raising its head proudly
Shouting out loudly
“Look at me, me, me, me!”

TWO:

Red, green and blue combined
Autumn’s true colours refined
Vibrating in the afternoon sun
Before the winter winds
Will leave them undone

ONE:

The colour of blue
With a slightest hue
Of turquoise and silver

Reflected on the wall
Shadows of tall
Evening lights flowing
Like the river

Quote a Week Tuesday, 2016-02-02

People often ask me what kind of camera I use. I must confess, after being a pix snapper for forty years, I have come to the conclusion, that the camera does not make the shot, I do. I used to drag all sorts of equipment with me even on travels, but since the advent of the digital format, I prefer to carry the smallest one with me, or just the mobile phone.

Of course there are advantages to SLR and various lens options, but then again, I rarely get the opportunity to just spend my time pic snapping anymore and when the opportunity for a great shot arises, I don’t care what camera I have with me, as long as I get the shot.

There are those who disagree with me and I agree not all of the snaps turn out as I imagined, but for me personally, the idea is more important than technical perfection. An image can be perfect in all ways, but still have no content. Even an out of focus image with a great vision, can be perfect. And in the end, if you yourself like it, then it is great!

Meanwhile, I think we can all agree on Chase Jarvis’ quote:

“The best camera is the one you have with you” Chase Jarvis
