Artist's Comments

The Atlantic was born today, and I'll tell you how
The clouds above opened up and let it out
I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
when the water filled every hole
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean
making islands where no islands should go

Most people were overjoyed; they took to their boats
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flatlands to your
door have been silenced forevermore
And the distance is quite simply much to far for me to row;
it seems farther than ever before

I need you so much closer...

Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism

beautiful image, its really peaceful. Is it a self portrait? How do you take the photos, with your other hand or on a twisty tripod thing?
And just curious, do you think of the concept first or take the image and match the poem to go with it?

Keep up the beautiful imagery :)

It depends.
As far as taking the picture, I usually hold out my arm to do it. But I have used a tripod.

The concept/lyrics can work both ways too. Sometimes I have an idea I want to try without meaning behind it, and because I'm so into music, I can usually find a favorite song or incorporate another work of art into my images to make it mean a bit more.

I'm kind of all over the map when it comes to inspiration and technique.

It is so soft,clean and perfect.I was about to ask you of "Bare hand"??? The tripod explains a lot but the things is ...you've got a good sharp close up since i assume you are in the bathtub and is always in the corner so,it must be a strange angle to put it in the right direction and the focus!Amazing!:+fav:One of your most beautiful :nod: Congrats!!! :glomp:

It's so hard to be strong
