So there are "more things in heaven and earth" after all

Just been back to this thread and found this profound thought - very thought provoking lori ............

I've always thought that since we live in a sealed unit on earth and all the same constituents go round and around then we all take a share of everything - all the life giving matter comes and goes with us and thro us and back into the air, the ground, the air and around again, which makes me think that down at single cell level and atoms and all of that stuff (I know nothing of chemestry!) but if 'messages' of some sort or other are imprinted on this material then we all share it ........ and its at this point I get floored with the implications of just how 'joined-up' everything is whether animal, vegetable or mineral ............

Oh absolutely PMG. Re your 'messages' idea - I sometimes think that when people get flashes of the past they may have some sort of holographic memory cells in their makeup. As you say - all is recycled.Fascinating.

Just seen the blackbirds feather - I really like this one. Whenever I try for water droplets I get blobs!
Can just see a huge print of this in a minimalist appartment, would look perfect.

Just browsing through this interesting thread. Had a play with one of my early photos - windswept tulip, softened etc. What makes the raindrops stay on - surface tension I suppose. The feather is lovely, Ken.

I dont charge either. Minimalist, me? nah, more personal I think - a study to look at it and consider the deeper things in life , including birds and feather structure - barbs, barbules and hooklets and how do they do that...........?
I didnt realise this is an area I like so much - one of mine from a few months ago -
and thanks for comments hedera, must be surface tension keeping them on. Depends on dryness and other physical factors such as wind not nudging them off..................

Here's my contribution!



I was amazed at how the first one turned out as it wasn't planned - just a oh-I'll-take-one-more-before-the-light-goes-completely type of photo.

I like the sparkles on the grass behind the iris - lovely

This was the first thing I saw this morning when I opened my bedroom curtain, shame I couldn't get closer.

That is really lovely BM.
