“Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still” Dorothea Lange
Favourite Photo Of the Week
So many to choose from
I don’t even know
Where they all come from
But I guess it is the how
I am the only one to blame
If some of them gets the fame
This is what I chose this week
Hope it is what you all seek

“Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution” Ansel Adams
Monolith
Tall, dark and mysterious
Standing by itself, all serious
Staring at it, getting nervous
Or maybe I am, just a little delirious

“After a really hectic week, I hate going out on a Friday evening, so I’ll always opt for a night at home” Donna Air
Fabulous Friday!
A new day
A new weekend
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

I’d like to be able to travel anywhere in an instant” Jason Behr
Birds
The colours
Of the old town
Will turn
An upside frown
Into a huge smile
When staying a while
In the historic city
Of Porvoo…

“Contrast is what makes photography interesting” Conrad Hall
All creatures, Great and Small
Squirrels, birds and cats
With and without their hats
Kitty sitting on the potty
The vigilant bird on watch
The squirrel named Dotty
Living in the lodge

“Your photography is a record of your living, for anyone who really sees” Paul Strand
Blue
Many a beautiful sunrises
Too many gorgeous sunsets
Which is the one to choose
Could not, so I let it loose
The photos in number of three
I have picked to peruse for thee
Enjoy them all, why don’t you
I surely did, even the blue

All You Seek
So many to choose from
I don’t even know
Where they all come from
But I guess it is the how
I am the only one to blame
If some of them gets the fame
This is what I chose this week
Hope it is what you all seek

“It’s always difficult to keep Fridays confined within themselves
…they tend to spill over”
Kai Sinclair
Smokey Friday
Smoke, on the water, smoke, on the asphalt, smoke in the air: That is not fair!
Friday was finally here. A time of joy, a time of parties, a time of all the things you could not do during the week, because you had to get up early and that meant going to bed early… see where I am going with this? Yes it was just that time, Friday, the day, freedom begun.
But as most of us may have feared, the weather gods in their great wisdom, had decided our fates to follow an other path. The cold damp outside, just made you want to stay indoors, close the curtains, cover the doors. Light up all the candles… oh this was certainly a scandal!

Smokey Friday
Foggy, cold, damp. Do I need to this list add? Oh why was this weather made to last?
I could not wait to get out of here fast!
Staring, at the bright coloured images on the wall, that moment trying to stall. Memories from the year last, were filling my mind fast. Wondering, was it still possible? Maybe if I let something go?
Thinking, thinking, thinking. One more look outside, and there it was: I had decided.
Running into the bedroom, opening the closet door, taking out my suitcase and quickly, not deciding,
taking out some clothing. Sooner than later, the bag was packed. I had just stuff grabbed and now on my way downstairs, passport in one hand, suitcase in the other. Anything else, I could not be bothered.
Calling the taxi, anticipating, blasting, why I had not thought of this sooner.
Never mind, better later I told myself as the taxi arrived and it I hailed.
The door slammed shut, I was sitting on my butt and on my way, where ever, because here I could not stay: preferably sunshine and sandy beaches, as far as the eye sight reaches….

“If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton,
you may as well make it dance”
George Bernard Shaw
Skeletons in the Closet
I found some skeletons, deep in my closet
I don’t know how they got there, possibly it was a good idea as a deposit
Now, I know this house is old, drafty and has leaky faucets
Yes, and it has caused quite the dent in my wallet
But as you can probably surmise
And imagine my total surprise
When these bones from the past
Out from their hiding splashed
So now, I am sitting on the floor
Carefully watching the door
Hoping to get these bones ridden
To a place safe, secret, away hidden
Unfortunately, at this day and age, I don’t have a time portal
Which could aide me to turn back time and make all normal
Make past things right, to not to run away from the fights
But, now I can only try to hide, that which I once let slide
People in glass houses, should not throw bones
Keep off your microphones and telephones in your own homes
You can never be too sure or safe
So just remember to lock your secrets in a very safe place
