Today I fly my kite.
Through a garden of flowers out of season, oblivious of the wind; in bright sunlight I follow it without reason or purpose, for the sake of this very moment.

The fourth fortnight is with the Nikkor 20mm f:2,8
I viewed and read this series in reverse chronological order. But I have love each one. You are a most gifted poet. And I am seduced by the simplicity of your images.
@s4sayer Thank you! The series is of photos I took with the camera on the tripod. The hand holding the “string” of the kite is actually holding the fully extended legs of the tripod, to get that perspective from above. Then I cut myself and my shadow and paste the image on a white canvas, where I draw the background/landscape using Photoshop. @helenhall@louannwarren Thanks a lot!
I'm so behind! I've been trying to focus on teaching an online class but it ends this week so I will be able to focus a bit more on reading and responding. I'm looking forward to catching up on your series because this beginning impresses me already. First, the photography and the perspective. But second, that you also drew this landscape in PS? Your talents no know bounds.
@jyokota No hurry my dear friend. It was so fun, and also very much time consuming. I am at the same time sad and relieved I finished this series! Yes, I have drawn almost all of the backgrounds in PS, apart for the last one, where I used a satellite photo I only edited in PS (but I drew the starry sky !). Be well, all best wishes.
@jyokota Junko, I've just finished reading backward though this...I'm in awe! In all sincerity, is this not a book, ready for the publisher? It speaks so eloquently to a time we can now, worldwide, all relate to...
Bravo, Domenico! Just remarkable!!!
