Leaving the bus stop, alone at twilight, I want to wave farewell to the backs of the strangers heading home. A failed date today, a rumbling muffler chokes - white breath, a young couple hurries past to catch the night train.
I commiserate with my cell phone's inbox; (three new messages, all junk) and watch a mother pull two children from the faces they are drawing on a parked car's windshield. Warm fingers leave behind two jaunty smiles in the frost. On the sidewalk stretching home, a sweet smell drifts from far away, and a man stubs out his cigarette, stone cold in an instant.
words clutter fogged panes
a passing sleeve erases
Wow... has been a real long time since I was on dA. Been busy with lot of stuff. Got my Masters degree in Physics and have joined U Chicago for a Ph.D. So basically I have moved to the other side of the world.
As a result I have been not photographing for a while. But I plan to get back to it soon now. Will be trying to do film photography and want to gets my hands on a rangefinder that I can afford. Anybody know where I can get one; or anyone who is selling their old one?
My sub has expired. Thanks to `Heidi (https://www.deviantart.com/heidi) for one moth of premium experience :D Contrary to my plans, I did only 2 features :( I was too busy the last 2 weeks of January taking photos at our colleges fests. Check out the photos from a music show by an Indian band Kailasa and a play called Dance like a Man. Comments and critiques are most appreciated.
It was a good month at dA. I like the photos I took and also got a DD. But it has been a not good month in other respects, and now I don't feel good enough to attempt any art. I have photos to edit, drawing to complete. :( Hopefully this will pass over.
Thanks for all the support at dA. :hug:
~yaysupplz (https://www.deviantart.com/yaysupplz) I haz DD now... :dance:
My abstract shot http://phaedrus-42.deviantart.com/art/Warp-149043528 :thumb149043528: got a DD.
Thanks to :iconlight-photography: for suggesting and to :iconopioid: for featuring it.
Also to :iconaobaob: whose work in architectural abstraction has inspired me a lot, and to :iconabstract--reality: a great group for abstracts and surreals.
And to :iconshadow-sapphire: for introducing me to dA. It has really pushed my photography beyond what I expected to go.
And lastly :ahoy: to the wonderful special girl who took me to the mall where this picture was shot. :love:
I have a busy photographic weekend
Thanks for the invite. Your group looks quite interesting. But, I am hardly active on dA these days and am doubtful that I can contribute in any meaningful way.
