the art of impermanence by summerfield

the art of impermanence

wabi sabi - "taken from the Japanese words wabi, which translates to less is more, and sabi, which means attentive melancholy, wabi-sabi refers to an awareness of the transient nature of earthly things and a corresponding pleasure in the things that bear the mark of this impermanence."

for this week's 52 captures challenge, the challenge is "wabi sabi", the art of impermanence.

i have improved the white balance of this camera but not quite there yet. too late i remembered that i should've tried using the new camera which is still in its original packaging along with all the accessories - CPL, ND filter, wrist band. one of the young lawyers in the office whom i've been helping with preparing and collecting payments from clients (i collected almost $3m in december alone from one of my departed boss' clients), gave me an amazon gift card. so that's where i spent the gift card at. perhaps i shall go on a photo outing on the weekend if the weather is decent to break-in the new toy.
The Japanese have such wise sayings! I presume wasabi has no relation to wabi sabi! Like the various focus chosen here!

I like how you filled the frame. Lovely! I like the concept of "the art of impermanence". I never really thought of it that way.

Congratulations on collecting that huge amount of money, oh my. These tulips are lovely. Tulips surely are impermanent!

I like your definition. They have opened beautifully! Congratulations on collecting so much money. You definitely should use the new “toy” this weekend.

Lovely image. That's quite an amount to collect from one client.

I really like the full frame of tulip blooms.
No wonder your place of employment doesn't want you to retire! Get that camera out and enjoy it. Even if it's inside.
