Some more experimentation


The theme here is urban anonymity. Just experimenting and having fun doing so.

By the way, my referring to urban anonymity might make it sound like I found the urban existence a negative experience. Not so. I do not feel anonymous in the city and the city is where I want to be. But I do know there are many lonely people in the large cities of the world, people who do feel anonymous, detached; and I sympathize with them.

Actually, I should say the theme is anonymity in general, however one defines it or whatever kind one feels or is familiar with.

A bit of fun...


Enjoying fiddling with some new pictures. I had such a joyous photography session in "my" park nearby earlier this evening. I think I've mentioned it before but the lights in the park aren't of the cold, glaring kind but rather give a soft glow. That's why I love the park when the dark starts to fall. To stand in the softly embracing, falling darkness, to listen to the silence while waiting for the camera trigger to go off; that's meditation. I've had a cold in the last few days, so it probably wasn't so good for my cough. But it certainly was very good for the spirit!
