According to Buddha
If you can’t smell the fragrance don’t come into the garden of love. If you’re unwilling to undress don’t enter into the stream of truth. Stay where you are. Don’t come our way.

l’océan vient
ses algues brunes
tissent nos liens
l’océan bat
l’océan tient
souffle la dune
délie nos liens
si tu entends

fish at the Granville Island Public Market ~ Vancouver BC ~ March 2021
Fine quotation, photographs, and poem
Interesting treatments on the photos. Hope spring is springing in Alberta!
Thank you kindly Frank I enjoyed making them with Lr…played some…and moved the sliders…ahhh yes some springing happening here…off to the river soon to see the ice…need it to melt for the dog now 🤓 enjoy your beach walks…I had a couple here on the west coast … I love the sea ☺️ sending you joy hedy
The middle group looks like a fish we call Porgies. Was Bess there too? 🐟
well I don’t know as a land locked Albertan I don’t see much fish other than a trout 🐟 …the west coast has much for me to see…maybe there was a Bess Bass too 🙃😂 I like the name Porgies…reminds me of corgi and perogies 🙃🙂😉 have a joyful day Mike sending you all good things 💫

They are, thank you. I hope your’s too.
Wonderful Buddha quote today, especially the bit about needing to be metaphorically naked. And these photos are gorgeous, especially the first one. I love what you’ve done with them.

Love, love, love the Rumi quote. His writing is dear to me as well…
These pictures are really interesting because there’s a certain “aliveness” to them–like the essence of fish laid bare, as if they are posing for a moment. To reveal themselves somehow, as beings. It’s hard to explain and I shouldn’t have tried. Haha. But lovely images as always.
Peace
Michael
humble thank you Michael ☺️🙏 I know I told some friends I like dead fish but I am curious about them too…I do understand what you say … hoping you’re well so nice to hear from you ☺️🙂🙃 sending you joy!
“A study in fish” now? I so love the way your mind shifts from one topic to the other. Dankje wel.
🙃😂😉 well it’s a bit wild in my hedy head at times Brian…yes fish I like to photograph them and eat them too ☺️🤓 bedankt voor je vriendelijkheid … so may letters in dutch 🤓😂🌷
AUB. 😉
Yes, many letters. I had to sort of read one letter after the other “counting” on my fingers, until I finally understood. 🤗
😂🙂
