the new wave.. by roy skogvold
A series of pictures of water in different states. I loved most of all to be close to water. A pond, a lake, a river or creek, or the ocean. In all different seasons. Still, flowing. running, in a drop, as ice or snow. Sometimes I can get a glimse of the spirit and energy. Like some kind of intelligence that mine is to narrow to understand. But still it touches me and I become even more alive. Nikon D300 / Nikon 105 mm Macro VR II / f:8 1//500 s 100 iso Inspired by Soundgarden – My wave Lyrics / Take, if you want a slice / If you want a piece / If it feels alright Break, if you like the sound / If it gets you up / If it brings you down Share, if it makes you sleep / If it sets you free / If it helps you breathe Dont come over here / And piss on my gate / Save it just keep it / Off my wave Cry, if you want to cry / If it helps you see / If it clears your eyes Hate, if you want to hate / If it keeps you safe / If it makes you brave Pray, if you want to pray / If you like to kneel / If you like to lay Dont come over here / And piss on my gate / Save it just keep it / Off my wave Keep it off my wave / Keep it off my wave / Keep it off my wave My wave Cry, if you want to cry / If it helps you see / If it clears your eyes Hate, if you want to hate / If it keeps you safe / If it makes you brave Take, if you want a slice / If you want a piece / If it feels alright Dont come over here / And piss on my gate / Save it just keep it / Off my wave

H-K091 by hsien-ku
As a thing the way is / Shadowy, indistinct. / Indistinct and shadowy, / Yet within it is an image; / Shadowy and indistinct. / Yet within it is a substance. / Dim and dark, / Yet within it is an essence. / This essence is quite genuine / And within it is something that can be tested. / From the present back to antiquity / Its name never deserted it. (Lao Tzu)

Drips by Arni Katz
We have bigger houses but smaller families; more conveniences, but less time; We have more degrees, but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgement; more experts, but more problems; more medicines, but less healthiness; We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbour. We built more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication; We have become long on quantity, but short on quality. These are times of fast foods but slow digestion; Tall man but short character; Steep profits but shallow relationships. It’s a time when there is much in the window, but nothing in the room.

Sailing to Serenity by William C. Gladish
A feather sailing on calm, dark-blue, water. Not only does the feather reflect into the water, but the white color of the feather does an excellent job of reflecting the blue back onto itself as well…razor sharp and clear image using large file size. In case the viewer wants to know…only the white-balance was adjusted for this image, no color enhancement or saturation was applied…I tried those adjustments, but they did not make the image more pleasing for me…so I returned to the version you see now :-)

About This Group
This group is for photographs that aim for a zen-like clarity through simplicity.
Images should be elegantly simple, probably inspired by the natural world, and have a contemplative quality. Can you imagine sitting in front of the image and meditating on the contents? – then maybe its photo-zen!
(For an added challenge you could add a Haiku if you feel so inspired)
Please read the group rules for more detail
