According to Buddha
Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life’s search for love and wisdom.
no one knows me
if i breathe real slowly
i let it out and let it in
it can be terrifying
to be slowly dying
also, clarifying
we end where we begin
so let it wash over me
i’m ready to lose my feet
take me off to the place where one reveals life’s mystery

fish at the Granville Island Public Market ~ Vancouver BC ~ April 2021
This is intersting, Hedy. I like it. Are they actualyfish and you edited this in post processing or are the from a painting of fish?
it’s an image of 3 fish I made…then I played with them on my iPad ☺️🤓 with assistance of apps…it was fun…ii don’t know photoshop…so it’s fun to play…have a happy week Chris ☺️🌷
They came out well. It’s alawys interesting to play around like that.
yes I’m also in a small group of photographers who know Ps so I try with apps too learn along the way….it’s all practice and fun 🤓
Great images, Hedy; especially in the first one there are amazing details! Have a fine Sunday out there! 🙂
I do appreciate the mobile iPhone detail … yes it was a wonderful weekend in the mountains…fresh air and so much sun 🌞 fun was had baby all ~ sending you joy Harrie have a creative week!
With breath, my life blooms before me, healing all wounds
breathing ion and breathing out … oh I do need more time on my mat …I also planted bulbs in the fall…I see tiny green 🍃 🌷 yes new chapters ☺️🤓🙂🙃 hugs dear Eddie have a happy day 🤗💖
I love the images. They are perfect for the poem.

well fish from the market in my minds eye…thank you for saying Ray 🤓☺️ appreciated 🙏
I used to ramble around the wet markets in Hong Kong and Bangkok making pictures like these.
yes I’ve rambled in some as well perhaps, I saw this in a dream…time is plastic…I have that stuck in my head now 🤓🙏 sending you joy
It’s all a dream.
good I like dreams ☺️
Beautiful and great images.
☺️🙏thanks kindly Amber…fun to push and pull the photos…sending you joy over the pond ☺️🌷smiles hedy
Interesting work you did there. Looks like the cloning tool on Photoshop. Great.
apps on my iPad…but I know humans who do amazing work with Ps…I still prefer the taking part but post editing is fun … some say post is more important others say in camera … and I have a friend who says ‘why do you mook around with it’🤓😂 he makes me think too…lots of photography advice this year with Zoom overload…now outside time 😎🌱5C and I have teeny tiny tulips tips starting I plant them in the fall 🌷🤗
Both sides are probably right. The camera 📷 as an extension of the photographer’s eye is important. Also depends on the subjects. I wouldn’t use an iphone for “real” portraits. (100mm is better) of for wildlife. But for my usage? Mostly urban photography? It’s perfect, light and discrete. Now the post? Many a photographer spent a lot of time in the dark room. Think Man Ray for instance.
🌷 ! Great. Just keep an eye on the thermometer… 🤗
