  5. Mirror of endless wandering,
    change the face of the moon,
    for my beloved's face is no longer there.

  10. si mai ales care iubesc rosul:)si este acolo si o pulsatie de albastru:)
    sigur nu stiai,in aceeasi zi,am vrut sa postez pe sprancene o imagine,pentru cei 30,cu un fragment dintr-o oglinda,nu avea pe nimeni in ea,insa,sub oboseala zilei cu contraste,nu am putut scrie nimic0uite,aici,poemul meu:)-multumesc,eu,pentru el:)

    initiativa este minunata,stralucitoare ca fluturii,sa le asezi frumos,in sertare,acesta este cu calatorii,acesta este cu ferestre...fecioara din mine mustaceste jucaus:)

  11. these photographs are true? i am staggered by the dialogue between them. (i ask about truth knowing that they are but astounded that the world presents both the questions and answers so wordlessly for those who care to see.)

    1. i didn't think about this dialogue when i took the photos, it was somehow spontaneous to press the button for my own reflection, after looking for those stone in the mirror. but then at home, when looking at them, their dialogue became immediately apparent... i will post another question&answer piece, your words inspired me (as they always do).

  12. Ag. Silver. Hg. Quicker. Heavier. Spheres of silver on Hermes' lake.

    These are astounding images. You ever-amaze.

    I am expecting bad news. This is a place to jump in at the deep end.

  13. The first photo is by far the best. 561 - 0792. This time, colour spoils.

    1. yes, i also think bw is better here, and the first photo is better indeed, but this didn't matter much, i wanted to have my reflection here as well to mark the beginning of this journey (and blog), as a kind of diary :-) it is not just japan, but, "my japan" :-)

  14. The second and third photos are very nice, Roxana. But then I've always been partial to images of young ladies-esp. compared to stones.

    Salams,
