Plant Bio-Communications Device and Array

Posted by
Denny Jump (Bellevue, WA, United States) on 14 April 2018 in Landscape & Rural.

I was having some fun crawling around in the tall grass and dormant Queen Anne's Lace plants when I happened upon this little tiny snail crawling up the dormant plant.... Later on, at home editing my images, this one struck me as a set up for communications device - a Bio-Plant-Type device of sorts.

My imagination is still very entertaining ;-)

- " We do not move forward from a middle opinion, which is undemocratic but mediocratic.
We advance from a creative passion "- (Edgar Morin)

- "To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at
that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."
- Henri Cartier-Bresson.

::Words from Denny:
- My beliefs, and values, have always been strongly tied-to music, especially Jazz, and Blues.
- The following artists and lyrics seem to "sum-up" where my spirit resides:
EARTH WIND AND FIRE;
"HOLD ON TO YOUR SPIRIT,
ALWAYS FEEL YOUR SOUL....
HONOR THE MAGIC IN YOUR HEART"; Earth Wind and Fire

I can see you imagination at work here and indeed the image has something of a communication array look to it :-)

@Darkelf Photography: Thank you sir. Being a life-long jazz lover, Once I execute the preconcieved portion of my shoot, I generally do fall into an improvisational mode. I just follow my feelings while I am “in the zone” ;-)! Thank you sir!
