The camera captures a very tranquil lake. The lower and upper shores are outside the frame, with only the water's surface visible, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds. At the top edge of the image, you can see the reflection of trees growing on the opposite shore. In the centre of the image, there is the reflection of a slightly larger cloud.

When the cloud saw its reflection in the water,
it stopped abruptly,
for it found delight in its own shape,
while
the other clouds continued on their way
and kept
transforming themselves.

Danke, Mo! Das könnte helfen, schließlich wollen wir im Sommer Kirschen ernten! Allerdings sind die immer ziiiieeemlich sauer …

I am very sad to hear that. I am a fan of her voice and have been listening to Clannad‘s music since their beginnings. And we were lucky to enjoy one of her concerts in our area. We will miss her.

Thank you very much, Rina! - Thank you for the repost!

Thank you, Scott! 🫶

Looks like a William Turner painting! Wonderful light. Stunning photo!
Eine wunderbare Reise in den Morgen ...

A nearly surreal atmosphere! Wonderful photo!

Thank you, Audrey, for your very kind words! 🫶

Thank you, Luis!

The photo captures a close-up of a single cherry blossom, with its pistil and stamens prominently in the centre, surrounded by white petals. The blossom appears to be reaching towards the blue sky.

Waiting for the bees
stretching into April skies—
cherry tree blossom

Thank you for sharing your lesson with us! 🫶

I did too! We had such a valve radio in the kitchen. It lasted for a very long time, and I always found the sound particularly pleasant. However, there was always a slight smell of dust from the warm valves. Despite cleaning, they became dusty again quite quickly.

Mit dem Stift in der Hand, an der Tastatur oder eben an der Leinwand, wie in deinem Fall: Es sind manchmal einsame Entscheidungen, die man treffen muss. Qual der Wahl. Und irgendwann muss man dann "Farbe bekennen".

WOW! What a picture!

I admire the deeply positive inner attitude of your lyrical self, which uses evening reflection as an opportunity for reorientation. I hope I can adopt this attitude constantly for myself ...
Wonderful words and photo!

Ja, man fragt sich ja immer, ob ein Text "funktioniert", und du bestätigst das, was mich freut - und erleichtert! - Vielen Dank für deinen Repost!

Danke für das Lob! Das freut mich sehr!

OK. Danke! Die Wildlife-Fotos sind wirklich klasse!

Der Birkenwald und der Reiher gefallen mir am besten. Sehr schöne Fotos! Fuji?

The black-and-white photograph depicts the large clock on the end wall of the interior of the Musée d’Orsay in Paris. It hangs on a glass wall, behind which, faintly visible, museum visitors can be seen walking. It is unmistakable that the building was once a train station.

Like shadows
we walk
behind glass
behind the clock
behind time.
Pushed
by that ticking countdown.
Mere shadows

But sometimes, Chronos,
in beautiful moments
time stands still
and the heart beats louder
than your ticking.
Take this, Chronos!

Splendid shot! Nice atmosphere!

I am very sorry for your loss.
I am truly glad to have come across you here on Bluesky. Your way of writing, especially about grief, immediately resonated with me. I am grateful that you are here.
Your words linger for a long time. I look forward to them every day.

Marvellous shot! Very well planned! Gorgeous light!

Acrobatic stunt!
