the sound of silence by summerfield

the sound of silence

Cheryl @kotasmama is my partner this week for get-pushed challenge #233. her challenge is for me to take "a photo of silence".

if you take this shell and hold it to your ear, you will hear the sound of silence. provided you don't talk.

also for the song title challenge. you all know the song...well, maybe not the young ones so here it is by the famous (okay maybe not for the young ones either) duo of simon and garfunkel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zLfCnGVeL4 we "the young once" would definitely remember this...or maybe not. we probably can't even hear it anymore. in which case it is the sound of silence. :-P
Great interpretation of the challenge!

Wonderful details.

I recently heard a cover version of Sound of Silence that was just absolutely amazing. It's by a band called Disturbed. I will try to find the YouTube link and post it for you.

@salza - i found it on youtube. i liked it, until it got to the part where he was just yelling. not a fan of yelling/singing. but he had a good voice for the song. thanks, my friend.

A gorgeous image. I especially like the view on black.
My favorite S&G song. I wore out my vinyl version, way back in the day.

Well done

Well done! It's only the Conch shells that you can hear the ocean in I think, so it's definitely silent. It's a pretty one too. Love the detail in the ridges which you captured.
