This May We Find (for week 20 Rally)
It’s just about Thursday, which means rally time! Visit Jingle to take part and support the work of some talented individuals. Thank you.
As if golden touched
From a landscape brush
In such moments
Time’s slowing rush
Canvas lens
Sensor remembers
Feelings lend
When patience
Surrenders
Dynamic light blends
Relaxing your eyes
Every color you think
This may we find

Care for a Reading?

Thank you, Emmanuel. Trying to better understand colors through a camera, it helps me learn to write about it. cheers 🙂

I love this poem. It is so much like how I feel when I paint outside. Beautiful Adam!
May 27, 2010 at 4:51 am
I’ve never tried to paint outside, but I can definitely understand the appeal of it both as relaxing and in terms of capturing light. Thanks, Leslie 🙂

May 27, 2010 at 4:52 am

poetry and photography intertwine to celebrate beauty; well done Adam
congrats on the well deserved award and the good guess ( sisyphus).
May 27, 2010 at 6:52 am
Thanks, wordwand. Congrats to you as well 🙂
I’ve enjoyed reading how Camus treats Sisyphus as an absurd hero. Your poem reminds me of that…

Great stuff and how green is the scene? Lovely work again Adam!
May 27, 2010 at 8:23 am
Hey Shan! Every time I go away and then return to mid-Michigan, I’m always amazed by the green of the landscape.
TY 🙂
May 27, 2010 at 8:09 am
pete is a great choice…
love the poem, as i love to get lost in all the color…
May 27, 2010 at 8:32 am
The way the light combines in HDR exposures keeps me taking pics. The color display is what made me try. Cool, glad you dig Pete’s work too.
May 27, 2010 at 8:51 am
times slowing rush and when patience surrenders…excellent lines. I really like this.

I’m relaxed just reading this. LOL Great poem, very well written, and a stunning photograph to accompany it. Did you take this photo?
May 27, 2010 at 3:59 pm
LOL thanks, Michele. I did take the photo. It’s an HDR that combines different exposures of the same image. Glad you like it.
May 27, 2010 at 5:19 pm
your words slide sensuously off the tongue– I had to read it out loud. Nicely done!

Some blogs are just bluntly refusing to open in my web connection, will have to replace the provider I believe. Unfortunately yours is one of them, shakira, emmanuel, jannie come next.
Another gorgeous, breathtaking photograph and lovely poem. Your hand is magic hand.
Congratulation for the well deserved award. 🙂
For a second I thought that it wont let me place the comment.

You’re awesome, Trisha. I have trouble commenting sometimes on non-WordPress blogs. Glad there are ways around that though. Thank you always so very much.
Enjoy the weekend and have fun!
