I have put together 10 photos of water in motion. These are my art. I have nothing to say about them. Art is in the eye of the beholder. Just take a look at each one, and see what the camera saw this day.
I have put together some of my favorite quotes below, matched with the photos. I will let you decide..
“A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know. ” ~Diane Arbus
“I began to realize that the camera sees the world differently than the human eye and that sometimes those differences can make a photograph more powerful than what you actually observed. ” ~Galen Rowell
“The two most engaging powers of a photograph are to make new things familiar and familiar things new.” ~William Thackeray
“Results are uncertain even among the most experience photographers.” ~Matthew Brady
“Photography deals exquisitely with appearances, but nothing is what it appears to be.” ~ Duane Michals
“Which of the photographs is my favorite? The one I’m going to take tomorrow.” ~Imogen Cunningham
“When the well is dry, we will know the worth of water.” ~Benjamin Franklin
“The water you touch in a river is the last of that which has passed, and the first of that which is coming. Thus it is with time present. ~Leonardo Da Vinci
“Water is the only drink for the wiseman.” ~Henry David Thoreau
“If there is magic on the planet, it is contained in the water. ~Loren Eisley
~ Water is Life ~ : ) Protect the water….
Nice post Kim_Johnson
Thank you Hamza!
Water, clouds, fire. These have had hypnotic powers over humans since time began. Each ethereal and ephemeral. Being as we, here and now, appealing to our animal instinct yet, forever confounding our logical reasoning. Great portrayal of this sentient being. The quotes resonate throughout the forests and seas.
Thank you for you kind words, glad you liked this.
Well, I am biased, fish, remember? SpLaSh!
Great quotes and photos. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much.
Love them all!
I appreciate it!
Great combination of photos and quotes 🙂
Thanks so much Norman!
just wow post shared
Thank you, and I appreciate the share!
I agree Little Miss and I went to the creek today behind our house and we’re saddened to see that people had dumped trash into it! We need to protect our water, our nature, because if we don’t we’ll destroy everything including ourselves!
Awe, man, I hate that. I always try to take a bag for extra trash with me. When we were kids that commercial used to come on with the Native American Indian with the tear drop in his eye looking at the litter. I went to a few Water is Life Rallies here in SD.
Experts say that no food can withstand the human organism. Without water no. So it is also in Nature, if water disappears and we disappear.
This is true!
Gorgeous photos!
Thank you Ellie!
Very soothing to the mind and eye.
Thank you Mark, much appreciated.
Very soothing and if you closed your eyes you can also hear them.
Awe, then it worked.
More beautiful and refreshing photos Kim!
Thank you for taking the time to look at all of my photos and commenting.
They are absolutely stunning! I love them all!
Thank you Icy, it means a lot to me.
Yes, we need water more than we need food to survive.
True
These are beautiful photos – congratulations! I love the quotes too!
I appreciate the comment, thanks a bunch!
I love water, I love these images. They are art! You capture the magic of moving water perfectly!!!!
I am so glad you think so, I was wondering if they were okay. I know one looked fuzzy but I was trying for the soft water effect, which my camera just wasnt capable of.
Once again, you amaze me! You are such a gifted woman to be able to capture the images you do!
You boost my ego. Thanks so much Gina.
Excellent shot, i love
Thank you dear!
So true, water is life and essential to thrive. Nice photos and post
We are having a problem with pipelines of oil. They break and spill into our major water sources. Thank you for the comment.
Great close up shots!
Thank you Marcelle!
