Description
A lonely boat drifts into the flat vast
Nothing to see but a huge sky above
A small and dry dot in a world of infinite water
Troubled by the loneliness and awed by magic of creation


****

After 2 days of impossible weather and unbearable heat (42 degrees Celsius) in Kemer (Turkey), the third day the heat wave broke and a wonderful sky celebrated the cooler weather. I took a walk down the wonderful beaches of Kemer to enjoy the sunset and I saw this small boat in the distance. If you look closely you can even see the Turkish flag on it. I took some nice shots there so I might submit more in the future. It was a wonderful experience to see this sky after the hard weather, like a gist for having to suffer it for a couple of days.

Sometimes I wonder how youre comin around to such places. Youre living on the streets, right? Always traveling from one spot to another, meeting always new signs of life.

That's what makes life interesting, isn't it?

True, sometimes I miss that when I think about how a photographer seems to lives his days. Ever thougt of how different everyones direction of expressing art is? And how it affects our lifes?
This looks like an unimportant Detail, but it isnt.
Drawing is all the time a part of me, even if I am not drawing at the moment. It is a way to express myself, just like when Im talking, yelling, shouting, crying, kissing, touching or every other way of interacting with other, mostly important to me, people. A special way to manifest your emotions and your psychological health which isnt opened to everyone but a, well, in relation to all living people, small group.
Photographing is different, I learned. It is more like hunting and living out life to the borders in a calm watching way by trying to find the moments, spots and places that amount living. To extract the beauty and emotion, keeping it to share abit of your life with everyone at any time and even yourself, when youre looking at the photos later on, to remember how that day, that time and that very special moment felt when you pressed the button. And yet these ways of living art arent the only ones - there are so many different ways to express in a very special and individual way. I wonder how Djs or even, yes, confectioners do life their day.
I wonder how Id life my life as a photographer. You told me elsewhere to keep on practising, but I wont ever learn photographing except for the basics maybe, because I already got my very own way of art. Drawing.

Well, look what youve done - Ima babbling nonsense
But since youve been asking what makes life interesting - this is my answer. This is what I think makes life interesting.

I can see a heart in the sky .
beautiful shot. the poem is beautiful. the "small and dry dot in a world of infinite water" is something that fascinates me, since I first saw the sea. and it's the same with individuals in this world, even the universe

I don't know you but you HELLAROCK!!! and I can't get enough of your word/photo combos... you just might be another addition to my healthy obssessions list. It is an honor to be able to digest others' works as well as my own and a few friends. It make me feel great that there are more of us out there in the world everywhere
