Inside looking out and outside looking in
Images can be a combination of reality and reflection. In this case the inside and the outside of my house, through a window.
The window glass interacts with the main protagonists; me, the lens and mother nature. And light, the secret ingredient, does it's own thing.....
Mysterious moments like this come and go, recorded and observed from all kinds of angles. Instagramed, blogged and tweeted.
But when you are there in that moment, the evening sky enfolds the land. Even small birds sit and stare in wonder, and you just have to succumb. Light becomes the only reality, reflected or otherwise.........and then suddenly it is gone again......

ReplyDeleteIt's like magic but o so true!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, and lovely words :-) Mandy x
ReplyDeleteMmmm...so true and so beautiful! There's also the camera's glass lens that further separates us from our surroundings...and yet - thru it we bring the world into focus and view. Love that last image of the shadows and shapes and forms in your house.
ReplyDeleteInside and outside...when they become one like this, it's magical!
ReplyDeleteHello Catherine

You have the most beautiful views from your home and a keen eye to observe the patterns and lines created by the shadows.
ReplyDeleteThat is wierd my comment has evaporated. Lovely outdoors.
ReplyDeleteOh how I LOVE that time of evening!
ReplyDeletevery creative and interesting photos showing the end of the day...I love the sun as it shines through windows late in the day as the last photo shows...you can see the golden glow of the sun setting lower in the sky through the shadows and light on the rug....
ReplyDeleteyou're a brilliant artist

Lovely images, I particularly like the second one.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant photos - as ever! I particularly like the first one with the reflections of your home. I took a photo of Flora outside the back door the other day and I then spent ages looking at the reflections in the glass, me on the outside and through the glass I could see one of the dogs and the kitchen table. It was a weird feeling. I caught a glimpse of the pink sunset yesterday too, but it was there and gone in a moment.
ReplyDeleteI am fascinated with the first image - the warm color of the inside contrasting with the cool colors of the outside. And..oh my, the shadow study in the last image. Love it!
