montaña Interludio

MatagalpaToJinotaga_0509

 

Ah, la alegría de la fotografía. Abordé el autobús en dirección a Matagalpa Jinotaga. Buscan capturar la belleza de las montañas de Nicaragua. He viajado esta ruta muchas veces, así que donde fotografiar no era un problema. Mi objetivo era encontrar un tramo de la carretera a caminar a lo largo y capturar la mayor cantidad posible de puntos. Ahora es la época de lluvias aquí. Los paisajes son exuberantes y verdes ahora. Si se mira de cerca usted descubrirá muchos tonos de verde. tonos de la tierra son abundantes.

Al observar el entorno montañoso, se dará cuenta de que hay una gran cantidad de profundidad, tanto vertical como horizontalmente. Esto mejorará en gran medida su foto en 2D, lo que permite crear el efecto 3D con la composición correcta.

El autobús se deslizó lentamente por la montaña teniendo en pasajeros y pasajeros descarga. Mi punto de saltar no tardó en llegar y me fui. Sólo yo y los pájaros en los pliegues de las montañas. Callado y pacífico. La belleza de la tierra antes. Te hace sentir muy pequeño en un lugar como this.One de los grandes problemas que tuve esta mañana era la bruma. Sólo hay que tomarlo con calma. Como yo estaba paseando por Observé esta escena agradable enmarcado. He capturado esta imagen en particular por sus efectos dramáticos.

Bueno, eso es todo por esta semana. Habrá más por venir. Así que hasta rastros felices la próxima vez.

Mountain Interlude

MatagalpaToJinotaga_0509

 

Ah, the joy of photographing. I boarded the bus in Matagalpa heading to Jinotaga. Looking to capture the beauty of the Nicaragua mountains. I have traveled this route many times, so where to photograph was not a problem. My goal was to find a stretch of highway to walk along and capture as many locations as possible. It is now the rainy season here. The landscapes are lush and green now. If you look closely you will discover many shades of green. Earth tones are abundant.

As you observe this mountainous landscape, you will find there is a great deal of depth both vertically and horizontally. This will greatly enhance your 2D photo, allowing to create the 3D effect with the right composition.

The bus slowly crept up the mountain taking on passengers and discharging passengers. My jump off point soon arrived and off I went. Just me and the birds in the folds of the mountains. Quiet and peaceful. The beauty of the land before you. It makes you feel pretty small in a place like this.One of the big issues I had this morning was haze. You just have to take it in stride. As I was strolling along I observed this nice framed scene. I captured this particular image for its dramatic effects.

Well that is it for this week. There will be more to come. So until next time happy trails.

 

I Walked Away

Bracken_0282

 

I saw her last night

Sitting in the park

All alone

I had not seen her

In awhile

There was a sadness

About her

That I had never

Seen before

She had been crying

That night

My heart was aching

For her

I longed to touch

Her hair

To kiss her lips

So soft

To hold her tight

So tight

But I walked away

From trouble

It could never be

Between us

Our love was gone

Gone forever

My heart was aching

For her

I longed to touch

Her hair

To kiss her lips

So soft

To hold her tight

So tight

But I walked away

From trouble

It could never be

Between us

Our love was gone

Gone forever

You Are My Rose

Roses_0152

 

You Are My Rose

When I am alone, feeling despair

I just need to think of you

You are my breath of fresh air

Upon the morning breeze

I thank the Lord, everyday

For having you by my side

You are my comfort

When the darkness of night comes

A light that is ever burning

You are that rose

That beautiful red rose

I could never find

You are my rose

That beautiful red rose

That blooms forever

To be in your presence

Brings a whole new meaning

To love

You are a woman for the ages

Your beauty is timeless

You are a dream come true

I want to live my life

With you

To have you in my arms

To cherish your love

To feel your love

And not be far away

You are my rose

That beautiful red rose

That blooms forever

Love you

Miss You

Miss You

Sitting alone, all alone

My mind goes to you

I see your winsome smile

The sparkle in your eyes

The way you look at me

The way you touch me

That is what you have

Done to me

Far or near, I miss you

When your light shines

On me

I am a man in love

When your light shines

On me

I am a man in love

A man in love

Miss You

You are always there

In my mind

When I am alone

When the blues come

My mind goes to you

That is the way of it

Sitting alone, all alone

My mind goes to you

I see your winsome smile

The sparkle in your eyes

The way you look at me

The way you touch me

When your light shines

On me

I am a man in love

A man in love

Miss you

In My Arms

Rio Blanco_0376

 

In My Arms

The music is playing

The lights grow dim

Just you and me

My love

As we glide slowly

Over the dance floor

We danced

We kissed

Touching one another

To look into each others eyes

Seeing the depth of our love

The desire growing stronger

We danced

We kissed

Touching one another

The music softly playing

You are like a butterfly

In motion my darling

Beautiful and graceful

As we float along

Lost in time and space

The music softly playing

We danced

We kissed

Touching one another

The music softly playing

With her lips

To my ears

She whispers, I love you

I touch her lips

With a soft kiss

The music softly playing

We danced

We kissed

Touching one another

The music softly playing

Train Of Love

Jinitaga_0278

Train of Love

There is a train

Coming down the track

Baby, you and I

We’ll ride that train

It’s the train of love

Yeah baby

You and I

On the train of love

Don’t know where it goes

But who cares

We’ll ride our love

Down them tracks

On the train of love

Yeah baby,

You and I

On the train of love

Them big ole wheels

Rolling along

I’ll hold you in my arms

As we rock along

Down that railway track

Yeah baby,

You and I

On the train of love

Over the mountains

Through the valleys

You and I, baby

We’ll ride them rails

On the train of love

Yeah baby,

You and I

On the train of love

Yeah baby

We’ll rocking and rolling

On the train of love

Down them tracks

To the end of the line

The Color Blue

MontrealRiver_4517

This is a very late evening shot. Thus the slow shutter sped. This creates the effect of smoothing the look of the water surging into shore. The predominant colours here are blue and white. This creates a sense of peace and serenity.  It is a very calming piece to look at. Throw in some rock and shoreline to give added contrast and change of Color. It will open your senses to want to be able to listen to the sounds surrounding you. Use your imagination.

So, till next time happy trails.

Bittersweet Memories 2

Bittersweet Memories

You walked out the door

You never said a word

You never came back

All you left

Was bittersweet memories

You never came back

You never came back

You filled my life

With the sound of your laughter

The smile you gave me

Like a candle in the dark

But all you left

Was bittersweet memories

You never came back

You never came back

The house is empty

My life is empty

The walls are silent

Your voice and laughter

Just a memory

All you left

Is bittersweet memories

I listen for the sound

Of your footsteps

But I know

You will never come back

You will never come back

All you left

Is bittersweet memories

You never came back

You never came back

Last Rays

Mountains_0079

 

The mountains cast in black

Deep shadows until dawn

The wind now a murmur

The birds gone to roost

The last of the evening light

Casting the billowing clouds

In a golden array

The clouds ever changing

Creating art for the imagination

Of fertile minds

But then the darkness intrudes

The light slowly fades

With the last rays of light

The stars become brilliant

In the far heavens
