"Promise me something?"
"Anything." he said.
"Never forget."
"Never."
he crossed his heart.

what I like about this is I only did 2 things to it.
cropped it and hit the ''auto tone'' button.
I feel like such a cheat.
but I love that it took my literally five seconds to edit.
and those little white flower bokehs....well theyre real!
the wind blew at just the right time I kinda squealed when I saw the picture on the little screen. haa.

newwww record.
although tomorrows will probably take a couple hours--i''m doing a manipulation!!! and I''m soo scared becasue I''m soooo out of practice D

haa.

Bowed to the sun - Inchinàti al sole

"A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world."

"Un sognatore è colui che non può che trovare la sua strada al chiaro di luna, e il suo castigo è che egli vede l''alba prima del resto del mondo".

iPod Shuffle - Burned By The Sun

Burnt By The Sun - "David Byrne" - Play this track here.

¿Whats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here

I remember listening to this track from the album ''Feelings'' on one side of a C90 sailing around the Whitsundays one October back in 1998. On the other side was Depeche Mode''s Ultra and it was playing back to back for about 5 days.

David Byrne born 1952 in Dumbarton, is a Scottish-born musician (British citizen) and artist most associated with his role as a founding member and principal songwriter of the band Talking Heads, which grew out of the NY CBGB''s scene. Since 1991, Byrne has released his own solo recordings, and worked with various media including film, photography, opera, and non-fiction. He has received Grammy, Oscar, and Golden Globe awards and been inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Talking Heads were one of my favourite bands back in my youth and I remember buying ''Fear Of Music'' from the Manchester Arndale Virgin Megastore one saturday afternoon, just on the strength of hearing I-Zimbra.

He has produced some fine work including collaborations and movie soundtracks. His record label ''Luaka Bop'' has showcased much world music including one of my faves ''Cornershop''. I have seen him in concert a number of times and he never fails to surprise.

The Talking Heads live album & DVD ''Stop Making Sense'' is a fantastic introduction and worth about £12 just to see that enormous suit

This track was a close second for this image.

------------------------

Sunflowers (Helianthus annuus) are annual plants native to the Americas, that possess a large inflorescence (flowering head).

What is usually called the flower is actually a head (formally composite flower) of numerous florets (small flowers) crowded together. The outer florets are the sterile ray florets and can be yellow, maroon, orange, or other colors. The florets inside the circular head are called disc florets, which mature into seeds.

The florets within the sunflower''s cluster are arranged in a spiral pattern. Typically each floret is oriented toward the next by approximately the golden angle, 137.5°, producing a pattern of interconnecting spirals where the number of left spirals and the number of right spirals are successive Fibonacci numbers. Typically, there are 34 spirals in one direction and 55 in the other; on a very large sunflower there could be 89 in one direction and 144 in the other. This pattern produces the most efficient packing of seeds within the flower head.

I have passed this field of them a few times and today, just had to stop while I had ''Feelings'' on the iPod in the car. I hope you like them!

I left some of the leaves in for perspective on how large the flower actually is. I drive past a house in my neighbourhood which has these growing in the front yard...I stopped and took a few photos the other day as I''ve never seen them this big before....They''re deep red, huge and absolutely gorgeous...I don''t know what the name is but they are beautiful. Enjoy.
Best viewed LARGE.

Spring was only
a moment in time,
but it was
a beautiful one.
And when I close my eyes,
I can see it again.
