Colours of a Heart
cleansed of blood
laid bare
to entice
to be taken

The composition is a crowning glory of the serviette series.
Rainbow on a platter. Almost.

Triplets
tucked in
restful

after the bedtime story
happily ignorant

i was thinking
if the creators of Goldilocks and the papa bear mama bear people had
seen this they could have done so many variations of their tale.
The
blissful ignorance of the three is actually representative of the state
of the largest number of human animals dont you think?
i wish awareness could be deemed blissful too.
Chalo jo bhi.
May the accursed bear their curse well.

Mom Gives Birth To Quintuplets, Has The Most Adorable Photoshoot
by Greta Jaruševičiūtė
On
August 18th, 2015, 26-year-old Kim Tucci had the surprise of her life:
she and her husband, proud parents of three children, found out that
they were expecting quintuplets! And after a good pregnancy, on January
28th, Tucci gave birth to her five darlings: Tiffany, Penelope, Beatrix,
Allie, and Keith. Australian photographer Erin Elizabeth Hoskins was
there to capture it all.
Some
might say that Kim should have known–after all, she was eating 6,000
calories per day while pregnant! Others are amazed that it took her just
2 minutes to deliver all 5 babies (OK, fine, it was a caesarian section
, but it still sounds impressive!).... (original source: http://bit.ly/1ZXxZGn)

Phantom Soul
-------------------------------
I am not at all getting where (in your home) the phantom soul is
seated but that is totally in line with the title and the nature of the
composition.
Sawaal ye hai ki soul equal to phantom or photo equal to soul of phantom?
Vaise hamein donon se bhi ethiraj nhain hai.
Kyunki sansaar ki har shay ka itna hi fasaana hai
ik dhundh se aana hai ik dhundh mein jaana hai
Us dhundh ke aage peeche ya baaju mein kuchh aur samajhne ki koshish kee to dhoondhte reh jaaoge.
What a composition!!!
Everything
is lit up and everything is throwing a shadow except the phantom who is
a shadow itself or the soul of a shadow and therefore reality thrice
removed.
The door, the light the book shelf (?) seem to be a
constricted space but also several self contained worlds available to
the phantom.
So many right angles in a world where nothing else is right.
To
my biased (in favour) eye umbra penumbra and antumbra are in a slow
waltz so the composition is not as grim as it may seem at a casual
glance.
Behtareen

Raven/s/ous
Waiting
the meeting begins
instructions are given
vote of thanks
a satisfactory conclusion
--------
Gratefully acknowledged: screen-grabs from a TV commercial, creators unknown.
Inspired by watching the ravens which come to drink water, and harass the pigeons who have had the same idea, on my balcony, where there is a fountain/sculpture. The ravens are too clever and fast for me, and by the time I can fetch my camera, they have flown away. My fascination and urge to capture them was fulfilled, when unexpectedly a very appropriate commercial appeared and reappeared in the middle of programs on TV.

Arctic Sun
Because of man-made climate change and the depletion of the ozone layer, the Arctic sun has reduced the snow by almost 90%. Where has this snow gone? Into oceans, rivers, water bodies, and then onto the land, continents, cities; flooding streets and homes.
But that is not all. The depletion of the ozone layer over the the poles has conversely facilitated the penetration of ultraviolet radiation, which affects earth, its creatures, weather and life itself. When this phenomenon of reduction of the ozone layer had not taken place, it was protecting all life, and controlling more or less all weather in a particular system and order in the planet earth.
Now, that protective ozone layer has been progressively reduced to smithereens. The behavior of water bodies has gone haywire, and therefrom springs unseasonal heat, rain, storm, flood, and countless other inclemencies, causing enormous harm, disease and death to creatures of every hue and kind; to forests and vegetation; and to almost everything else on earth.
Is this process of disintegration of the planet as Man knew it restorable, renewable? I have no answer. I would be grateful if someone has, and if I come to know about it before my time is up.
