Oops, sorry cbtsam, I jumped to comment and thought of Linda. She indeed stimulated the title and our thoughts of contributing to Wabi-Sab images. My apologies.... but my comments on the beauty of your image hold true.


Thanks for your kind and thoughtful - if somewhat wandering - comment. A question: I think I understand your use of 'pareidolia,' and I imagine your flutterbye-bird is a pareidolia (paradoliac?) response to my tulip, but ya lost me with 'Crimea,' and any help would be appreciated. And thanks again.

Beautiful and beautifully done! I can almost "see" the outline of a pretty girl's face. Anyone else?


Thanks so much for your very generous comment. Alas, my limited pareidolia can't find the pretty girl's face, despite my intense motivation.

I will tell the Emergency Room to get the stomach pump ready because you will be dropping by after you eat.

I never worked up the will power to eat a Ghost Pepper, and I am an aging chili-head. I used to raise Habaneros in my flower bed. But my digestive system and I were a lot younger than. A guy who thought he liked HOT once chomped on one of my Habaneros and actually yelled, then drank several glasses of cold punch and held crushed ice in his mouth while his brow was sweating like he had been doing hard labor in Death Valley at noon in August.

Linda's post on "Photographing (or creating) decay and other imperfections" prompted me to post a wabi-sabi image I took back in September. A tulip had been sitting around my stinkio (I have a lot of such items sitting around, and my wife complains about the resulting stink) for several months, and I'd shot it several times. This one was supposed to emphasize the curve in the stem, and was shot with the blossom end furthest away from the camera and the stem bottom closest, but I think that barely comes across in the image (although the stem does get fatter further down from the blossom, revealing the perspective). So I reoriented it like this. If you examine it very closely, you can see some of the webbing plopped atop the left petal and the right one, as well as a couple of other strands.

Not much digital fancy dancing here, although there was a clamp holding the stem up, and I managed to hide it pretty well.

I like the flower and the upper curve of its stem, but not that sharp bend and the remainder. My preference would be a crop as shown here - without the little bit of separate stem, this is a screenshot cropped on my iPhone.
