“There is nothing worse than a sharpe image with a fuzzy concept” Ansel Adams

Fuzzy Vision, One

In focus or out of focus
It’s a little bit of hocus-pocus
Is this, the vision of one thing blurry?
Or something extraordinary?

No matter how you focus
Only one thing, is flawless
You see, the complete fuzziness
Is part of our trickery business

Look in to the photograph
Imagine your eye a spectrograph
The longer you stare
Something else appears

Like magic, the unclear
Becomes now very clear
Look even more deep
And you find, what you seek

Caturday, 2015-01-02, Part Two

The tourist of a foreign land
Came here to our strand
We let them snap some photos
And for them, strike a few poses
Scratching our backs
There is no lack
Of many a treats
Neatly we sit
Until all the pix
Are snapped
And the strangers all gone
Then we, just run along

Caturday, 2015-01-02, Part One

Cats of a foreign land
Sitting on a lava strand
Too hot to fish
Too hot for a stroll
Guess, the best bet is
To hang around the bowl
On this lazy sunny day
Nothing else to do but lay

Fabulous Friday 2016-01-01

A new day
A new year
A new leaf

A new beginning
A blank page
I am, in center stage

On my way
My vision quite clear
People looking, in disbelief
As I am swinging
Down the street

Sounds of pops and crackles
Letting out a chuckle
Heading towards the harbour
The fireworks beginning
Feeling like I’m winning

Found the new location
Time for a celebration
For new sensations
Time for fun and play
To the rhythm starting to sway

Music and laughter
Not feeling the dafter
Only joy and being alive
Time for a high five
Let’s all have a ball

Wishing One and All
A Fabulous Friday
And a Glorious New Year!

Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”

Happy 2016 Everyone!

Those of you snapping pix, know this to be a tedious task, since to be honest, they are all favourites of the moments they were taken, why else would you have shoot them in the first place, right? Trying to limit the number to just one or two photos is difficult for any post, but trying my best here from the several thousand photos shot and posted during 2015 😉

For this week’s Favourite Photo Friday posts, I have decided to walk through 2015 and choose a few of my most favourite ones during the coming weeks. Hope you are having some fun during the walk down memory lane of 2015 in photographs!

And, as the quote says: “The only photograph I regret, is the one I did not take”.

For this particular post, I have chosen two taken in England, London.
Continuing on the travel theme, more 2015 favourites in parts two, three, four and five.
Go and check them out!

Enjoy!

Today is the time for the final Daily Photo of the Year 2015!

Through the Looking Glass (Daily Photo 2015-12-31)

Sunrise or sunset
High up for a reset
Destination, unknown
Flying, to a different zone
A new year
New destinations
There is no fear
Only new sensations

Staring out the window
Reflections of the past and now
Mirrored in the looking glass
Knowing only, time will pass
New year
New hopes
Prepaired on full gear
Despite the slippery slopes
