Artist's Comments


One day the tide went out
Leaving me through and beyond
Through my shelter
Beyond my ease

Unable to wake up
Feeling my the salt-crusted heart
My thought floating in the waves
All were empty
The sea hugging me tenderly
Inviting me in, deeper than existence
Through my shelter
Beyond my ease

I know I'm in the zone
Where the boats are all sinking
white masts calling all angles
But nobody will hear me think
I become blind to the sun
watching for darkness to take over
in the shimmering heat
I fall asleep

Through my shelter
Beyond my ease



********

Full view... PLEASE

Well, I have to admit It's been a long time since I shot a picture that I was so pleased with.
This one has most of what I love about photography.
The atmosphere, the concept, the abstract point of view.
Yet, all is obvies after realizing what we are looking at.
An everyday scene, forced to look at differently.

Well, this is what I love so much in photography, Finding the magic within our life.
Taken in Bodrum, Turkey.

NO PS work, straight of the Memory card.

I guess you made this picture vertical, but the point of view and concept behind it is what makes me think your words again and again. I like the idea of the thought floating on the water, it's really well represented through the person's position in the water.
Very powerful, very emotive, very well shot.

Cheers

Oh my friend this is perfect and incredibly beautiful and powerful... The atmosphere is unique... I'm sure this is a picture of yours that I keep forever in my eyes and in my heart, and that I will watch many times... Thank you Gilad. The world through your eyes is a piece of heaven... :heart:

It's just like you said, once you realize what you're looking at it all becomes simple... But it still remains wonderful, and beautiful!

Love the tones, and the expression of the model...

What a great shot, with great words! :clap:
