As some of you may have noticed, I like to use mushrooms in my images. They’re just so wonderfully odd-looking. In the “Cosmic Mushrooms” series, I pair them with images of nebula taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. The shapes of fungi thrusting though the earth and jets of gas pushing against the interstellar medium echo each other wonderfully, so that even a toadstool several parsecs across isn’t completely strange… “Cosmic Mushrooms 2” combines an image of the Orion Nebula (M43) with a photograph from stock.xchng member Jens Raadal.

/ “Out There” is the 7th stage of The Journey…How often have you felt it’s you alone against what’s out there? No way through that you can see…impenetrable barriers everywhere…you can’t see…you don’t even want to look…our travellers have reached such a place…there is light beyond where they are but they don’t know how to get there…the valley of peace seems further away than ever…have they lost their way? Semi-Abstract work in Watercolour on Sennelier Paper.. / You can view the other stages of the Journey, by clicking on each image below… There it lay, before me, as they had / said it would: a distance / I’d wish to cross excerpt C. Phillips / We reached the Valley of MIsts the next day…it was just as described…snow was still settled in the gullies and our shoes made no sound as we trudged over the rocky terrain…we stood for a while in silence….the quiet seemed to echo around us…no bird sang…our destination was still some ways off ...The Journey..Janis Zroback These hills, to hurt me more, / That am hurt already enough. / Having left the sea behind, / Having turned suddenly and left the shore / That I had loved beyond all words. excerpt E. St Vincent Millay / Is This Elysium? / The place the gods have set aside for man to rest? / All day long the sun and moon shone together in the sky… / Here are fields as high as the house, songs play from the windows… / Gold and green and princely red mix with the daises and the corn.. / Is This Elysium? J.Zroback / / Wind and weather brought us to this place.. / The distant sound of voices whisper across the water.. / Night and Silence…who is here? / Solitude and Silence are our only companions… / How curious the light that shines on the water!! / Night and Silence..who is here? / Echo answers nothing. ..J.Zroback / / We were not certain, but we were on the way to somewhere.. / The mountains in the distance seem to hold everything in shadow.. / Where we were, was a field of poppies, but there was snow in the hedgerows.. / Beyond were fields and yet more fields, then what appeared to be a ridge of smaller hills hidden by a block of dense trees… / Behind us the lands fell away to nothingness ..J. Zroback / / Winter whispered softly as we turned our way homewards… / Why is it so dark you asked, scarcely daring to breathe… / I didn’t answer, but clasped you closer to my heart, / As snowflakes hung suspended in the deep blue night ... J. Zroback / / Thou greatest Keeper of Secrets, / Most elusive, consummate Illusionist, / Riddlester non-pareil, Mazemaster, / Supreme Criptician - / From whom do You hide, / everywhere and nowhere? / For whom do You wait? / Who else? / Only the ocean can know the ocean.

Funk è un termine coniato negli Stati Uniti negli anni cinquanta, per indicare delle caratteristiche ritmiche e sonore presenti in diversi ambiti musicali. Inizialmente il termine fu usato nel jazz per indicare un approccio musicale rude e libero da sofisticazioni, legato al blues, con riff ripetitivi e con un ritmo incalzante. In seguito l’ aggettivo funky fu utilizzato sempre più anche in altri ambiti musicali come il soul ed il R&B. Il significato del vocabolo funk (ed il suo aggettivo funky) nello slang degli afroamericani indica generalmente un cattivo odore1 così come l’odore sprigionato dal corpo in stato di eccitazione, e per estensione poteva significare “sexy”, “sporco”, “attraente” ma anche “autentico”, cioè originale e libero da inibizioni. Dopo gli album di James Brown (influenzato dal suo sassofonista Maceo Parker), Papa’s got a brand new bag e I got you (1966) si cominciò a considerare il funk come un vero e proprio genere musicale. Il termine fece la sua comparsa ufficiale nel rock in un brano del 1967 di Dyke and the Blazers (Funky Broadway). / George Clinton è considerato il padre del Funk e con i suoi gruppi Parliament e Funkadelic incominciò ad esibirsi negli anni settanta definendosi per sacerdoti della religione “della giungla e della strada” nata per liberare gli umani dalle forze negative di un mondo senza funk, inventandosi il genere “P-Funk”, che ha assunto il significato di “Pure Funk”, il Funk alla massima potenza, nella sua forma più pura. Artisti legati a George Clinton sono sicuramente due altri grandi padri del P-Funk. Il bassista Bootsy Collins, che ha fatto parte sia della band di James Brown sia dei Parliament-Funkadelic, e Roger Troutman con i suoi Zapp & Roger, portando alla notorietà mondiale il “talkbox”, un modificatore di voce prima utilizzato solo in collegamento a delle chitarre da gruppi Rock, di lì in poi invece collegandolo da un lato ad un piano e dall’altro alla bocca, creando un suono magico. Negli anni settanta il Funk sviluppò i tratti caratteristici che lo distinguono tutt’ora: linee di basso incalzanti e ripetitive (esemplari quelle del bassista di Sly Stone, Larry Graham), riff di chitarra elettrica taglienti e sincopati, nutrite sezioni fiato e facile ballabilità dei brani, largo spazio ai brani strumentali e agli assoli. Negli anni settanta e ottanta il funk si mescolò con la disco music con gruppi come Earth, Wind and Fire, Kool & The Gang o i Jackson Five: secondo alcuni scadendo commercialmente, secondo altri elevando la qualità della disco music. Nel jazz a partire dalla fine degli anni sessanta il termine funky prese ad indicare dapprima alcuni lavori jazz ibridati col funk ed il blues (hard bop) ad esempio certi brani di Horace Silver, o Blue Mitchell nonché Lee Morgan ed in seguito, più in generale, uno stile influenzato dal funk anni settanta e dal rock, da alcuni definito jazz-funk (Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, George Duke, George Benson, Stanley Clarke). Nell’uso comune impropriamente i termini jazz rock, fusion e funky sono poi divenuti sinonimi. Dopo gli anni ottanta l’inafferrabile funk si è mescolato con altri generi ed ha ispirato i musicisti più disparati (a titolo di esempio si paragoni Atomic Dog dei Funkadelic (1982) e What’s my name di Snoop Doggy Dogg, e si considerino le influenze musicali di Earth, Wind and Fire su alcuni lavori di Elio e le Storie Tese. Il P-Funk è alla base della nascita del West Coast Rap, artisti come gli N.W.A., DJ Quik, Too $hort e tutti i padri del Gangsta Rap si sono infatti ispirati alle sonorità soprattutto di George Clinton e Roger Troutman. Le influenze funky della musica soul e della musica disco nel jazz hanno portato all’odierno acid jazz (ad esempio gruppi come Jamiroquai, James Taylor Quartet o Incognito mostrano chiari influssi funk). In ultimo, il funk unito alle prime sperimentazioni elettroniche degli anni settanta e alla disco music ha dato vita al genere house dalle mani dei DJ produttori Frankie Knuckles, Larry Levan e altri; il genere, ormai il più ballato negli ultimi 30 anni, ha sua volta rivoluzionato tutto il mondo della musica dando il via a molti altri generi oggi classificati sotto il nome Electronic Dance Music (EDM). Si potrebbe affermare che il funk è nato come aggettivo per definire alcune caratteristiche musicali esistenti, si è evoluto a genere autonomo negli anni settanta ed oggi è sostanzialmente tornato alla sua funzione di aggettivo, per caratterizzare alcune specificità di generi come l’acid jazz o l’hip hop, od il funk-rock, oppure semplicemente nei nomi di alcuni gruppi musicali (ad esempio Planet Funk). Attualmente nell’ambito funk-rock i Red Hot Chili Peppers sono considerati fra i gruppi più rappresentativi del genere.

This is a new style of image of the Royal Exchange in London, England. This image is designed for wall art on print or canvas or as a download and uses HDR technology to show a massive range of colours over this scene. We have night sky lit up purple as well as the bright reds, yellows and greens from the surrounding office buildings. The depth of detail and colour is made possible through combining three images as different exposures and creating this slightly surreal look at the heart of the English capitol.

This is one of the best phtographs I have ever taken. I managed to take this image almost by chance. I had began the evening in the City and walked back from the Royal Exchange to St Pauls phtographing as I went. Once I had crossed the bridge I had intended stoping but decided to try one more shot from the river bank. I didn’t even give this image much of a chance, I took only two or three exposures and left it at that. When I reviewed the images the next day I realised this was the best of the whole evening which goes to show you can never be sure what you’re going to come back with when you go out taking photographs. We have the historic St Pauls Cathedral lined up with the Millennium Bridge as it crosses the river Thames in London England. This photo was taken just after sunset and we are treated an amazing wealth of colour. A stunning purple haze has been cast over the river and the cathdreal and the lights on the oopostie bank help to add character and detail to the great image. This photo would be perfect as and advertising image for commercial use or for personal us as a peace of wall art on either canvas or print or in any other medium.

This is one of the most interesting photographs I have ever taken. This image was taken on the centre of the Millennium Bridge over the river Thames leading up to St Pauls Cathedral at night. We have an amazing sky of red, orange, blue and purple of the City of London with the lights of the bridge really highlighting and drawing us into the historic centre of the city St Pauls which ahs also been illuminated. The truely interesting part of this photo is that there has been just enough light to show a ghostly shaddow of some of the passers by, none are possible to make out as only the outline of their bodys have been left but it gives us this amazing ghost effect reminding us of the thousands of people who pass over this bridge to the spiritual economic centre of the city.

This is a tuely beautiful image of the world famous dome that sits at the top of St Pauls Cathedral in the heart of London in the City of Westminster. This image was taken during the night time hours and has some really strong colours, the sky is an amazing orange highlighting the details of this historic building. I took this photograph recently on a trip to London but I wasn’t intending to photograph this building, I had been in the City near the Bank of England and had been taking photos around that area and decided I would walk back to Waterloo station rather than taking the tube as the Waterloo & City line had closed and so this would be quicker. On passing the Cathedral to head across the Thames there was no way I could resist turning around and trying to get an image of this amazing site, I think I’m glad the tube I needed was closed.

This is a photograph of the city of London by night, it has an amazing range of colours with strong reds and blues from this evening light. The photo was taken from the South Bank of the river thames in the centre of the city of London and shows the financial heart of the English capitol. We can see the city of Westminster also simply called ‘the City’ from St Pauls on the left to the Geherkin on the right and the NatWest Tower or No. 42 in between. At the front of the image is the river Thames and Blackfriers bridge which seem to fram the image against the deep blue sky. This stikeing photograph is one of favourites and it really shows the beauty and calmness that can be found even in the most built up of urban areas.

This is a photograph showing the famous ‘City’ area of London including St Pauls Cathedral, NatWest Tower (no. 42), the Gherkin and Blackfriers bridge from the river thames in daylight. There is a strong blue sky with perfect white clouds over the heart of the UK finance and the centre of this urban metropolis. This image was taken from the South Bank as is one of the most famous in the British capitol.

Mixing themes of a balance in life with a belief that there are multiple paths to take, i came up with this work which depicts a clock with no hands and no placement in space and time.

“Captain’s Log, Stardate 44012.3. We are exploring unfamiliar territory on the beaches of this strange planet called Southern Africa…..” Jokes aside, this was unfamiliar territory to us and we tried to visit as many beaches, preferably as far away from tourists spots as we could with the time we had available. Interesting to take the gravel roads less travelled to places not many people know of ; nothing but unspoiled nature and of course a lone solitary log washed ashore – I could not resist editing this when I thought of a fitting title for it :) This was taken somewhere between Mossel bay en route to Arniston – South Africa Flickr Gallery http://www.flickr.com/photos/soulmyst/ P.S If you prefer to view this on imageKind do a search “soulmyst”

Going nowhere slowly; when you are on the ocean on this beautiful day with a view to some if Southern Africa’s best coastline…why rush to get where you are going to?...” In future, instead of standing on the beach taking photos it would be nice to do it on a boat going from town to town with the beautiful mountains in the backdrop (sea sickness would be a ‘nice’ first experience too I reckon hehe) This was taken somewhere between Dana baai and Stilbaai – South Africa Flickr Gallery http://www.flickr.com/photos/soulmyst/ P.S If you prefer to view this on imageKind do a search “soulmyst”
