Listen … / With faint dry sound, / Like steps of passing ghosts, / The leaves, frost-crisp’d, break free from the trees / And fall. / - Adelaide Crapsey, 1878-1914, November Night
I thought i posted this already, Obviously not…. While in Puerto pollensa, Majorca, I saw this lady who seemed to be pondering her last day of her holiday. I didnt think of it but i was nasty in thinking it was funny that she was having this feeling, while I was enjoying myself. It wasnt until 5 days later, that i found myself on a jetty next to this place, sitting, thinking exactly the same thing. / How ironic that we should mock ( in a way) a type of misfortune, only to have it come back to haunt us ! / I think there are lessons in many ways to take from that one example. / I hope this looks ok, I have tried this image whilst feeling ill but had to do it, instead of sitting still I thought this song went well with what i was trying to say

The 4th piece of my Flyland Series. / This song inspired me After the explosion of the planet which created the soaring islands, this bride was separated from the one she wanted to marry. Her knight soared away on another Flyland…....and she stayed alone with his horse and thanks God – this old hut which gives her shelter. She is so thankful for the grass growing on this little Flyland, and the straw in the hut….it keeps her warm at night and helps to feed the horse. / She wonders if she will meet her knight again, she doesn’t even know whether he survived…...... / _____ Thanks a bunch to Joseph Auquier for the stockfoto of the lady on the horse. / _____ / Digital Painting done in painter, based on a 3D Vue Rendering and some postwork.
The Pantiles from the Lower Walk / MCN: C1J1M-GJGER-BGL1N Canon G9 ISO 200 1/13 at f2.8 Texture overlay courtesy of SkeletalMess / The History of the Pantiles / The Pantiles and Tunbridge Wells itself, owe their beginnings to the discovery of the Chalybeate Spring in the early 17th century and the popularity of the spa water amongst the gentry and royalty of Georgian England. As Tunbridge Wells grew in popularity as a spa resort, so did the area surrounding the Spring – eventually leading to the building of the colonnaded walkway in the 18th century, later known as The Pantiles. / In its heyday in Georgian times, the ‘Walks’ as they were then known, were the place to see and be seen for visitors to Tunbridge Wells. A strict protocol was adhered to – gentry on the ‘Upper Walks’, the colonnade, and everyone else on the ‘Lower Walks’. Richard Beau Nash, a dandy of the day made it his business to ensure that this protocol was adhered to by acting as a kind of Master of Ceremonies during ‘the season’ in Tunbridge Wells and in the town’s rival, Bath. Things are much more relaxed nowadays and the Pantiles is now a very attractive and stylish part of Royal Tunbridge Wells. / Much of the colonnade has been renewed since its beginnings in the 17th century but most of the surrounding buildings date from the 18th and 19th centuries.

A Dream Lies Dead by Dorothy Parker “A dream lies dead here. May you softly go / Before this place, and turn away your eyes, / Nor seek to know the look of that which dies / Importuning Life for life. Walk not in woe, / But, for a little, let your step be slow. / And, of your mercy, be not sweetly wise / With words of hope and Spring and tenderer skies. / A dream lies dead; and this all mourners know: Whenever one drifted petal leaves the tree- / Though white of bloom as it had been before / And proudly waitful of fecundity- / One little loveliness can be no more; / And so must Beauty bow her imperfect head / Because a dream has joined the wistful dead!” Another building abandoned by the Hockanum Mill Company. Rockville, CT Nikon d90 / PS Elements 5.0 / The view finder credit goes to Vin60 / The rest of the layers/textures are mine.
