Lens-Artists PC: Car reflections and new blog

· 28 Comments ·

Here is a collection of the last two months’ worth of Roman car window reflections and an invitation to my new blog.  Happy in between days, days between this and that, days that nobody is celebrating or congratulating you for. This blog, my third, is … Continue reading Lens-Artists PC: Car reflections and new blog

If you pass this door in Piran, Slovenia, you have my permission to draw something. It’s ours.
This is Piran cemetery doors. Do not write on it. It’s pretty.
Now to the united colours of Rome.
A hidden Tiburtina courtyard.
Two Monteverde favourites. I’d love to live behind this one.
Pretty door in good light.
Now over to Ljubljana, Slovenia. It’s full of strong men.
Another National and University Library entrance. I’ve posted the horse-shaped handle yet.
Whereas this is the police station in the centre of Ljubljana. Sister brought here a found phone.
On the way to Rožnik, a popular weekend hangout of Ljubljana natives.
Sis in Ljubljana Botanical Gardens.
The Door of Complaints in Slovenian House Figovec restaurant. No wonder it’s empty. Right: “From juniper to gin.” Bottom: “The hideout of the naughty ones.”
The beauty of a friend.
Žužemberk Castle, one of its many passages.
A fine door of Bolsena.
The first thing I saw at the Mestre bus station near Venice. This is Italy too.
Poetry of another kind in Rome: “Achilles – My heel, which is in love with you, is the most beautiful and strongest part of me.”
Maybe this is what they mean by Multipla: not the most aerodynamic car but it has multiple uses. Rome’s Monteverde.
The last door Norm saw around here. Capalbio Scalo.

Thursday Doors, 22/11/18: Door soup for Lens-Artists PC

Look on every exit as being an entrance somewhere else. ― Tom Stoppard, “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead” (quotation reblogged from One Million Photographs) It was exactly a month ago that I was forced to combine challenges and today I have to again, even though … Continue reading Thursday Doors, 22/11/18: Door soup for Lens-Artists PC

Gornji trg in Ljubljana in August: compared to what follows the light is gentle but still pretty.
The view from my grandmother’s place in Maribor above the Drava river.
From my first and only sailing trip to Croatia in a previous lifetime.
Piran, the catcher of the last light.
It invites you out to play.
It makes you take a peek.
It opens the doors.
It makes paintings out of not much.
In Lucca there is much to behold. Guinigi Tower with oaks on top.
The last light of that day in Lucca. The sun said: Okay, one more.
In Rome the light is harsher. Trastevere.
Via delle Collonelle.
Park Villa Pamphili in Rome.
Opposite Trastevere.
It doesn’t matter where in Rome you are. You get the light.
Closer to home the light mellows: the view from the archaeological park at Roselle.
The Orbetello lagoon where flamingos come for the winter.
The same lagoon as the light was blocked.
The Capalbio beach out of season.
The Abbey of San Galgano is the light queen and this is my knight.

Lens-Artists: Follow the light

The more pictures I take, the more it becomes obvious that all I do is follow the light. The best is to catch it before it says good night when they say it’s golden, so I do. This magical gallery starts in Ljubljana, Slovenia, where … Continue reading Lens-Artists: Follow the light
