  • Hope Is the Thing With Feathers Collaboration between Isa Rodriguez and F.A. Moore, / combines similar images created by the artists separately, and at different dates, with no knowledge of the other. The likeness was so uncanny, they simply needed to be married in one piece. The separate elements are Bird Comfort by Rodriguez and Rain-I by Moore. Poem by Emily Dickenson. This work is my variation of the original. Please see F.A. Moore’s original of this collaborative work “here is my Story with this .. I had not felt it was truly mine until I layered it with another photo of mine, actually it is layered with one of my versions of a fractal I had played with a while back , one I loved especially when my cousin, Iris’, whose husband fell in love with it and sort of helped me name it “Twin Twisters. He had never appreciated art before, but started to a bit, while Iris was learning a few ropes on Rb, and spending time looking at photographs and reading the different writings. that original is here / Here are the details of the two images* / Bird Comfort Rain I* / / The way I see this : at the beginning of life, we are divinely cute, potentially everything, love to be seen and hear, clear as a bell, but sometimes dumber than dirt. albeit . sooooo good looking ..we are innocent, we are absorbing, we also love to be heard, and like to experiment and make some big booboos.. profound color, emotions galore, puberty … hot , cold , where do we go , hurt, pain, its bigger than everything .. , everything is important we think, what we say is important , what we are doing is oh so good isnt it ?? then we enter the error of a bit of doubts, and responsibilities, but we do have a style.. we even twirl our words, to make them sound better, and we can bend the rules, and we are working , and we are lonely sometimes, oh , we are so confused… but sometimes a bit content .. but mostly not, we wear our face well, but we see what is there.. and though we perch quite proudly , we feel something is missing.. .. in the middle of our careers, we are not content , but dont know how to stop the crazy machine we are on when we approach our later years, years which we are sure wont last too long.. we are fading in our bodies, but our mind .aaaaaaaah, clear as a bell sometimes , more than ever.. we are content in not being seen so much , but , some people know we have some wisdom .. we dont care what people think of us so much anymore.. we ar perched up higher, for we live to observe more. and listen more ..and also we are aware of the grass on the other side. we are ready more and more to go to the real green grass, our final home, and we wonder allot about the days gone by , and we do worry about some things. but we let things happen more, and not feel we must interfere, we know better, things tend to work out in their own way .. we ache for a young body at times, we feel we have even lost some body parts along the way .. what happened to all of our hair .. what happened to all of our skin tones ?. oh but now those wrinkles on our hands. how beautiful they can be…. aaaah , if people only knew .. how much heartache would they not have to endure. but our voice is low.. people must seek our advice. we wont do the speeches so much anymore , hence the text must be low tones, barely visible except up close lol. you can clearly see what stage I am in with this explanation dont you ?? :))

  • Take a Good Look At Isa, Take a Good Look At Me
    by happyfeet5

    When you look at Isa / what do you see? / Do you see the real woman / that is inside of me? / If not, then please take a good look at me. / .....

    / My cousin Isa Rodriguez is a very talented photographer who now discovered the joy of writing. I have written this for her not only because I love her, but because I want her to know that she is an inspiration to others.

  • Larry Graham was kind enough to interview me. ..he is my cohost at All Around Florida and he is an amazing documentary photographer with a great portfolio, quite diverse from all over the United States. His photos concerning fires and firemen are beautifully recorded, a subject, not easy to express . and His nature shots of our beautiful Florida are a real treat to the eyes. / Thank you kindly, Larry Q. Isa your home base is Ft. Meyers; do you get a chance to travel around the rest of the Sunshine State? Let me give you a bit of background first : / it has not been too long that I have been living in Florida, and it has not been long that I have been taking pictures with a digital camera. in fact it was not until 2007, that I did get my first digital.. but then , I got hooked . I am a lover of travel, indeed.. Larry. ..in fact most of my portfolio is of pictures taken while on the road. The last two years I have done much less traveling than I did in the past. But I am also a huge fan of finding objects n the home and around my yard and on the streets and roads when I take a walk . I am a big fan of finding the everyday things of my daily routine. Gasoline prices and airline struggles have made me more so . I love Florida for its diversity within a small area. It is funny, but when I travel , I mostly am visiting family, and do not take the camera with me to respect the time sort of speaking:) although my family rolls their eyes at me . when I DO decide to take that camera with me . now , that being said. :) I have this philosophy in life.. you can travel all you want, but it is home where your greatest joys should come from .. and I could probably spend a few years simply taking shots of the unending life in my neighborhood alone.. I am quite versatile in what I take pictures of .. so a statue, or the bend in the road, or the power lines or the clotheslines or the ice cream truck or the gardens, or the children playing are amazing fun to me :) Q. In addition to your children and grandchildren what are you other favorite subjects to photograph? OH dear.. i have been accused of loving too many things to photograph.. but !. I couldnt find a subject I love more than my family :) okay subjects; .. Architecture and URBAN is a huge love for me . being raised in a big wonderful diverse city of the BIG APPLE ..i now have about 600 photos of Philadelphia which I have yet to share from .. and there I took pictures of sneakers lost on the power lines:) CANDID STREET SHOTS is another deep love of mine ..this shot here.. is an example of what some has deemed me and dubbed me as “the sneaky photog”.. it is called runaway bride.. and it is one on my personal favorites . This one here was taken as I was sitting across the row from him while on a train to Philadelphia. again “the sneaky shooter” The Flowers and Trees is another area I delve into . here is one from my yard and this one is one that has an added texture , another subject I want to learn more about / and oh how I love Birds / Natural Abstract gives me a sense of the beauty in light and shadow alone Statues and Cemeteries and MONUMENTS , another area of interest. and one of my favorite is ordinary mundane objects ..and of course my beloved cows / and it doesnt hurt to have some humor ..so < i find elephants in clouds and smiles in the trees Q. If you were to name one place in Florida as your favorite spot for photography where would that be? And why? Absolutely it would be hands down Miami for its urban excitement and flavor , diversity in its people and its flair for color here is one of my very own faves from Miami. a place where every corner is a treasure unfolding in front of my eyes / Q. How would you describe your style of photography? To describe me is tough I believe, but I do have one thing that I love, I am a huge fan of my photos coming up looking like paintings rather than follow the rule of thirds. I dont look for anything deep or wide. I look for a flat up and down look . my photos are usually centered making them look like they are hung on a wall of life sort of.. and that is how I describe my art. I never hold or carry around a tripod, and I couldnt care less about f stops and depth and exposure. . lol why?.. because I am a walker first, and a photog after.. i am never encumbered by details and dont have a need to learn those things in my later years.. strange , maybe, but true.. I enjoy what I am doing so much .. maybe when I am 95 I will be more interested. Q. What other artists do you draw inspiration from? I have to stop here for just a moment , to explain something I believe is the difference in seeing something beautiful , and something special . Although I believe there are millions of great, really great photographers, i do believe that there is a difference n simply doing something that is pretty, and something that is special .. a huge difference. it is probably why sunsets and flowers simply all by themselves are not something that stop me in my tracks .. to take that flower and add a sense of why you took that shot . well, thats great photography.. Ansel Adams!. and John Muir.. lol.how I wish :).. I see Florida as much much more interesting in black and white.. and it is an area I would enjoy if I had the fancier equipment and I had means with which to travel . But as I am content with myself and my state in life , I will accept what I have graciously now on the Red Bubble, there are a few here whom I really enjoy .. Doreen is my spiritual and photography twin we see eye to eye on every aspect of life Jean Lafftau magic in the camera eyes to take the soul of a person and keep the light perfect, all in black and white Rosalie Scanlon is one person who I admire greatly for her ability to take a shot of the ordinary every day and make it something special . no fancy lighting or things of that sort.. I admire that greatly OLDRUZ I must stop here and say. i found one photographer that I am utterly amazed at and want to emulate, and the reason being is the photography he does , sort of reminds me of me. i hope he doesnt mind my saying so.. I just discovered him not long ago.. and wil be enjoying his photos very much others that I gawk at Shoiab . works my heartstrings with his poetic images I could look at a slideshow all day with the nature and landscapes of Rodeorose / / Adrian Donahue master of tone and intrigue Lorena Maria Lore has a flavor so strong and delightful, moving, loving portraits and street scenes Elizabeth Bravo my cohost in “Post Cards” has a magical way of displaying light with emotion in the shadows in a city or home or wherever she goes Pmistric has humor integrated into a most wonderful unique vision work Lois Bryan and her landscapes .. wow Tatum Wolfe has a sense of humanity in her amazing street candids micmac tells a story simply by placing up her amazing photos here on the bubble Helen Bascom completes her artistry with social awareness par unmatched on the RB the list is quite long.. Q. Your gallery contains many projects that are beyond the scope of “All Around Florida”, tell us about some of these artworks? When I first started shooting my main objective was to document. I am a huge fan of history and memories. and I joined flickr as an outlet to simply share.. it is there that I fell in love with a diversity of mediums with which I could have fun with :) always having an artistic flair about me .. I delved into some fractals and some collages...this one is one in which my love for natural design and collages are fused in one / / . I became known as the collage queen .. and couldnt get enough of that under my hat. . it was a great way to show 20 works in one:). but there are many areas which I had yet to want to delve into . and my love for Abstract has always been with me since i was a child .. so!!)))) .. my favorite abstracts are faces :).. / here is one of the faces that I worked on , not too long ago : Q. You host several groups on RedBubble how does this enhance your community experience? May I just let these groups tell the story , and you tell me if they make a difference. Thats a hard question, Larry. I do hope even in a small way I might help promote beautiful amazing people along the journey . all around Florida / 50 things / All Street Portraiture / At The Store / Exceptional Ekphrasis / First Things / Live Love dream / Postcard Style / Puerto Rico Photography

  • my cousin , iris also known as Happyfeet 5.. wrote a poem entiled.. let me paint you a mona lisa. from the love she has for my mom .. she saw this image I trook of mom while she was napping :). / simply no other name in the world but mom can stir up my soul in a whirl pf giggles and endearment and love this is my momma!. and to tell you the truth. . right now as I see her , I cry cause I want to run to her. / she lives in Puerto Rico . 83 years of a lovely person , a mother, a friend , and she will always look you right in the eyes when she talks and usually touches you when she talks to you too . :) .. she cant help it.. lol..

  • maybe when you are a child.. you hold on to something dear and never ever let it go . .. i must give mom another kiss, i must hold my granddaughter ,. i must step into that mud.. i must go to buy a dress.. i must dance with daddy once more.. i must tell Naomi how proud i am of her.. i must see Thalia run her farting joke by me again.. i must see Bella in her daddys arms.. i must go to Ivans wedding..
