Her face cut from stone
Her eyes when she's smiling
Will never reach home
But hear how she sings

And I'd never through their call could ever be so irresistible
I join them, I drown in them, I lust with them, I pass
I pass away by them as I'm as one with them now

Lowered deep into the sea
Being awaits to cleanse his soul
senses weakening time is still
Motionless by stiffening cold
The wheels race back, scorch his mind
Traveling all to find the land
Revelation warms a touch
And now he will begin
To understand

To the practical observer
It's just a matter of time
"You can deviate from the commonplace
only to fall back in line."
I understand mine's a risky plan
and your system can't miss
But is security after all a cause
or symptom of happiness?

Brave, yet afraid, his eyes on horizon
in a steady-set gaze
a mariner soon from an open cocoon
takes a moment to summon his courage
to stifle his grave apprehension and
trembling, approaches the surf

A father's benediction as his hopeful son departs
to brave the sea of rage and conquer at all costs
lingers in his memory
and visions still surviving in a logic-proof shell
that should have been held sacred, safe and hidden well
are compromised in usury

With every rising sun that yields no sight of land
the hesitation cultivates within the tired man
and rumors spread of mutiny
and though the time will come when dream and day unite
tonight the only consolation causing him to fight
is fearless faith in destiny

(Dream Theater)




I was at the Black Sea shore with some former colleagues from High School and my girlfriend for ten days (still didn't leave Romania!). Even though I hate crowded and sunny places, and I dislike the sun and the loud beach music and noise, I have found solace in the lonely sunrises. I also hold my little sweetling dearer than ever:
This was also the first (actually the second) time I've tried my hand at a portrait. I usually feel terribly inhibited, and only free when alone in the middle some forgotten scenery.

Stick to creating [WL] threads. When an azn nerdling lusts over some guy's girlfriend in a thread which that guy spent alot of effort on, it's only natural for that creature to be trashed like the mindless moose he is.

It's rather amazing that with 4,000 posts, you can't identify the correct person to ridicule.

Amazing pictures and poem. Sorry to derail

There are no HDRs, I was just playing with longer exposures

I have a Canon Digital Rebel XTi (EOS 400D) with the standard kit lens (18-55 f3.5-5.6 which sucks ass honestly)

a proper equipment and proper exposure at the proper time and location can make these shots
no hdr needed
great pics
i am wondering what the exif data looks like for the second pic (mostly interested in exposure time)

portrait work is also great but some skin toning work (removing some ugly shadows, blemishes) on ps would probably do the photo (and her) a favor

Could you give specifics on one of the pics? like what ISO, what aperture, what shutter speed?

I also have an EOS 400D from my brother but I have no real clue about photography but I plan on taking a whole lot of pictures during my korea trip in 3 weeks.



lololol, couldn't see your post above yet when I started writing this one :D
would you mind giving the same specs about marine architecture?
