“The cold never bothered me anyways”
Frozen Water
But when the blue moment rises
Even the bravest of them seizes
And in the end, all waters freeze

Frozen Water: One
Posted in Photography 101: Water & Orientation (Day Three)
“The cold never bothered me anyways”
Frozen Water
In the midst of all silent and frozen
The cool liquid puts up a strong fight
Surrounded by powder of white
The stream still runs wild and brazen
Middle of the Road
Posted in Photography 101: Street & Establishing Shots (Day Two)
“When I’m in New York, I just want to walk down the street and feel this thing, like I’m in a movie” Ryan Adams
Middle of the Road
Not quite the main street of San Francisco
Certainly not the hippest lane in Seoul
It’s just a quaint itty-bitty place called Espoo
Right in the middle of nowhere
Somewhere
Near the North Pole
Sunrise over Suburbia
Posted in Photography 101: Home (Day One)
“Home is where the heart is?”
Sunrise over Suburbia
The yellow sunrise above the rooftops
Residents slowly leaving for their jobs
When the last of them away have run
And silence has taken over the fun
Another week in Suburbia has begun
Photo 101: Day 20: Day Twenty: Triumph & Contrast
“There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast”
Charles Dickens
Photo 101: Day 20: Day Twenty: Triumph & Contrast
Just black, white or gray
May lead you astray
But find the right contrast
And you may suddenly gasp
At the wonderful blast
Of colours beaming your way
Even on a dull, rainy day

Two of a Kind
Photography 101: Day Nineteen: Double & Rotation
“Life is all about finding people who are your kind of crazy”
Two of a Kind
No better pair you will find
Than a two of a kind
They may not look the same
Or be built to similar frame
They may not always agree
The urge for fight or flee
But together they are strong
It even says so in the song
Side by side they stride
With a stance filled with pride

On the Edge
Photo 101: Day Eighteen: Edge & Alignment
“Living on the edge” Aerosmith
On the Edge
Sitting on the edge
On the top of the hedge
Staring at the skies
Oh, how time flies
Clouds of blue and white
Making me write
This little ditty
Of pictures ever so pretty

Through the Looking Glass
Photo101: Day Seventeen: Glass, Squared
“Curiouser and curiouser” Lewis Carroll
Through the Looking Glass
Through the looking glass
Life will quickly pass
Surfaces reflecting light
What a visual display in sight
A glimpse of an image
Transparent as the line of scrimmage
Moving fast and fading away
Only within imagination to stay

Phototography: Close-ups
“All right, Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close-up” Gloria Swanson -Sunset Boulevard
Close-Ups
Close-ups
Shots of stuff
No huff nor puff
Objet d’arts
Or something smart
Check them out
Let out a shout
If you like
Or just out of smite

My Glasses
Photo101: Day Sixteen: Treasure & Close-up
“I look spectacular!”
My Glasses
I can see through you
You seem to have a clear view
I would be lost and having strife
Or at least stumbling through life
Like a blind person needing a cane
Or an actor without the fame
Using my own vernacular
I shout out loud
My glasses oh so spectacular
Would even make Dame Edna proud
