Quotes 11-4-14

"The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don't always soften the bad things, but visa versa, the bad things don't always spoil the good things and make them unimportant."

- the Doctor

"Everybody knows that everybody dies. But not every day. Not today. Some days are special. Some days are so, so blessed. Some days, nobody dies at all. Now and then, every once in a very long while, every day in a million days, when the wind stands fair, everybody lives."
- River Song

This is a really interesting story and I think the world needs a few more people like this, who stand up for and believe in themselves. And I think the only way a person can learn to do this is from the support of others.

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."

Dragonfly 10-23-14

This photo is very bright, you can see the light reflecting off of the dragonfly's body and wings and it gives the wings an almost crystal-like appearance. If you look at this photo and the next one comparatively it almost looks like this is a different dragonfly of a different color.

This one is darker than the other two and I think I like the lighting a bit better, it focuses more on the dragonfly then the pond below. It also shows the sky and, I think, a metaphor for how sometimes we can see and taste freedom but are still caught up in our own spider webs.

Here, the photo is taken from further away so we can see the spider web in greater detail, and we can see the empty space that surrounds out subject. The background here is a bit distracting and if the camera had been tilted down a bit more it would have cut out a majority of the distractions.

These photos were taken in a unique opportunity, in a spider web above my pond a dragonfly had been snared, making for a good string of photos.
