Pachyglossal-sky, Ashen Before A Coax
I found this to be quite Sci-fi-ish.

it is all where we spend our time
the squabbles that churn with life unrefined...
Thank you for the comments! :)

I like the fact you've put this into the Loving Life pool. The title; well it can't really be improved upon. No wonder you're so happy.:)

Karen: I've always been able to find a way to stretch my limits to a certain extent. In fact, in their own way, each photo that is posted on my folio is a branch of my loving life. Either way, in whichever it is stretched, it begins to feed off of itself, like the moving grounds next to quicksand. I come from the center of sleep! Where everything is always awake...
Thanks for the comments, as always, my friend! :)

Good take on life, its a contribution.
DerrickT (66 months ago | reply)
Yes, indeed!
It's never-ending as well as a continuous growth, like a childhood "spurt" of bloom! :)

Wow. I don't take this for granted:
If ever I feel a grey cloud over my head, all I need to do is come to visit the unstoppable DerrickT. His folio is alive, glowy, mysterious, thought provoking to a magnanimous degree and always, always smile worthy!
I mean, really... try to not smile when visiting this delightful folio! Try, I say! It can't be done. And how fortunate that during my little grey period, there have been new uploads to visit and ponder and get lost in.
You are the bright star in the Flickr sky and Flickr would not be so joyous, without you in it... Love you through and through dear Derrick! Thank you for your limitless talent, creativity and radiance.
Bravo, Bravo, Encore!!! :)

ultraviolets note made me laugh out loud - i was just going to do the same myself!
yes, very sci-fi mister T, it could also be the thin end of a diving board if you try hard enough:)
i love these toy camera images, so unlike the stereotypical shots, they seem to enable you to embrace that Rod Serling element - i can picture your films now, a delectable (con)fusion of sci-fi-gothic-derrick-klaatu-uncle included here and there and that wishywashy black fly.
i can even hear the fuzzes and pops, the clang twangs and zither-hops of the soundtrack.
yaay!

Wows, wows immense-immense-immense to all of you!
Ann, you never fail to leave me with such positive glows and a bright, bright(er) glow blazing from my visage. A speaker-box of love, a fine collection of words from the princess herself! I'm forever grateful! Must I come parachute down into your home and give you hug?! :) You rule, seriously. Your praise is almost overwhelming in a way, but oh-so flattering as always! :)
ultraviolet: Ha! I love the note you added! Your comments are always nice and welcome as well! :)
Lou: You now have me wanting to go watch The Pawnbroker...
Ha! The diving board towards a euphemism that decided to smile. Quite a larger union, don't you think? :)
I like your take on how my films would be. I think I wish and long to make motion-pictures more-so than photography. I think there's so much to be shown, either in a short film or long film, of moving images, all telling a story, or the organization of cells of a foreign body. The soundtrack, ah yes. Perhaps you'll add some vocals as well? :) ...Thanks, magic!
hobbesken: Thank you, thank you! I'm really happy that you enjoy this. :)

Man I love reading the comments in your stream Derrick! Nice shot. There are days when I feel pachyglossal.
*estrella [deleted] (66 months ago | reply)
the pawnbroker?

DerrickT (66 months ago | reply)
Thanks to everyone, as always, dear one's!
Lou-magic: Yes, Rod Steiger in The Pawnbroker. You don't know of this?
www.imdb.com/title/tt0059575/
Such a weirdly wonderful film! :)

i love this. beautiful hints of maybe's and possibly's and almosts. makes me wanna shoot more nothingness. (:
'solaris'? as in the films? the remake is one of my favorites.
*estrella [deleted] (66 months ago | reply)
thanks for that, im frequently cruising the IMDb!
i saw the film many years ago, but unfortunately cannot recall it too well, although i know i was impressed - what a guy, i adore rod steiger:)
*estrella [deleted] (66 months ago | reply)
wasnt there a film where he had an unfathomable amount of tatoos?
DerrickT (66 months ago | reply)
yoshi: I say definitely shoot for the maybe's and the possibly's! There is always a level of formidable sensibilities that come out of them...somehow, someway. It's almost like...the lower the "percentage", the better the ratio.
Yes, Solaris! I never liked the re-make of it, but would rather stick with Tarkovsky's masterpiece, although I didn't find that the re-make was horrible or anything like that, I would just prefer the original.
Thanks, as always, for the comments! :)
Lou-magic: You're quite welcome! I was thinking that you had probably seen it, but it had probably been a long time ago so it had become a bit vague. I'd suggest getting the DVD if you can!
Ah yes, The Illustrated Man!! Wow to that! Rod Steiger is one of the most underrated great actors of all-time, in my opinion!
Good to see that you made your way back to this one, Lou-magic! Thank you, thank you. *_* <------------- I am pulling one out of your hats now. :)

They tread this moments precipace, the horizon split as liquid grey gave over to bright telegraphs.
Thanks for posting in Broken Mirror - very dreamlike, enigmatic. We are a speck in our own future, dirt set loose from our eye creating a vision of ourselves on the plains of time.

My own tongue has thickened, fighting to find words as it basks under your pachyglossal sky. A diving board my eye also sees, a launching point for the beyond beyond. And there is we, manandwomankind, as ultraviolet notes; sizing up our high dive into the ashen infinite. It's time to plunge.
