Softness
Gentle heart made so delicate
Spread your fragrance of soft delight
Softness is at your core
My first exposition!
Since last week 20 of my images are in an exposition at the office i work in Deventer. Very cool to see all these images come alive. As i could do the selection, i choose a variety of work. Some edited with photoshop and others from the time i first started to really do photographing. Wanted to show you ladies and gentlemen the photographs. The above image is the actual setting. Below is a gallery with all 20 photographs. You may recognize some of them, as i’ve posted them before.
Let me know what you think of the collection 🙂
Flower Power
Spring has arrived! These shots were taken at the children’s farm where they also have a very nice garden with various types of flowers. Some tulips and some hyacints and some i don’t know the name of 🙂 Have a lovely week
Red and Yellow
These tulips just popped up in the garden a few years ago and still show themselves each year. Delightful to behold. This time no real editing, only a bit of highlight and shadow editing and a bit of cutting. Have a lovely day
Hanging on
These tulips are weeks old, almost gone, but still the flowers remain colorful. Tried to capture this with a macro shot and while was editing it, a black and white version had to be made too. So here are two images for you. The red you see on the right, is from the red wall so it’s not painted digitally hehe
Resting in the Heart
Resting in the Heart
Soft with a melodious fragrance
Sending out a symphony of colors
Lighthearted and care free
You dance the dance of light
Opening your heart to all
While you rest in nature’s lap
The Beauty in Impermanence
A Tulip decaying
Impermanence
Once we’re willing to look deeply into life
Seeing that all what we work for and strife
Is shattered at the inevitable end of us all
We all know nobody can escape death’s call
We can wish for eternal existence
Hold on to what is most dear
But in the end death is always near
Accepting this fact of life will lead to freedom
In the middle
Thanks to a very subtle and beautiful edited photograph by Mythical Horse i was inspired to edit a photograph i took earlier today. It’s the heart of a Kaufmanniana tulip, with a slight touch of HDR (though it’s only one photograph, so not a real HDR)
The Heart Essence
The Heart Essence
The heart carries the essence of life
Throughout rough and clear weather
Unceasingly sharing all its gifts
No need to search for praise or approvalBeing the Heart Essence is enough
Soft (de)light
The delight of softness, a flower blooming
A white tulip shining as a lamp on to itself
Spreading an atmosphere of kindness
While resting in the rays of the sun
