yüreğimin üstüne demir
demirin üstüne yıldız
yıldızın üstüne rüzgar
rüzgarın üstüne yelken!

Created for ART MUSEION CONTEST #3: Circles
The stone circle at Castlerigg (alt. Keswick Carles, Carles, Carsles or Castle-rig) is situated near Keswick in Cumbria, North West England. One of around 1,300 stone circles in the British Isles and Brittany, it was constructed as a part of a megalithic tradition that lasted from 3,300 to 900 BCE, during the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Ages.
Various archaeologists have commented positively on the beauty and romance of the Castlerigg ring and its natural environment. In his study of the stone circles of Cumbria, archaeologist John Waterhouse commented that the site was "one of the most visually-impressive prehistoric monuments in Britain."
Every year, thousands of tourists travel to the site, making it the most visited stone circle in Cumbria.This plateau forms the raised centre of a natural amphitheatre created by the surrounding fells and from within the circle it is possible to see some of the highest peaks in Cumbria: Helvellyn, Skiddaw, Grasmoor and Blencathra.

HMM! : )
I have a little collection of beads and things so I thought I'd put them to good use for today's theme..
(The smallest beads are around 1mm/the largest is under 1cm)
Update to this post: This week has started off pretty green...so I've decided to have a weekly theme, all things green! Green is my favourite colour so it seems appropriate.
1/7 - All things green :green_heart:

I never normally like to tell people, but i think this looks better on black and enlarged.
View large on black and feel the motion.
I won't dare my heart to drop.
I'd pay just to die? That's a bit of insanity !!!
Hehe

For the Macro Mondays challenge "Circles" (April 9th 2018)
A delicate bracelet of interlocking circles of silver. Made for me by my great friend Laurie Kern, who is a talented metal-smith working in silver. It was an early, experimental piece, using a S-shaped clasp, and has a pair of matching earrings too!

"A circle is the reflection of eternity. It has no beginning and it has no end - and if you put several circles over each other, then you get a spiral."
HMM... the macromonday theme for today, 4/8, is circle. of the 150+ shots i did of various circles, this is one of the brass button ones, but i liked the napkin ring one the best. so no dithering today :)
This is one of the oddest geologic features I've seen in the Arizona desert. I was shocked that this white circle is completely natural. I have no idea how this formed! Those of you with more geological insight, please chime in!

My intention was to shoot reflections through water droplets, but I was unsuccessful. So while I had the water out, I decided on the good ole' oil/water method.
Funny how the circle turns around
You think you're lost and then you're found again
Though you always look for what you know
Each time around it's something new again

I am sure that some of you would wonder how to create a photograph like. This is not a photo manipulation and if you look for "oil and water" photography abstracts, you will find some similar photos around the web. If you add a few drops of oil in a water tank, these drops will float and bubble on the surface. After that, you simply add a nice background and experiment.
You can download this picture as an HD wallpaper on my website: www.marcgcphotography.com
However, if you are interested on learning how to create images like this one you can read my article "Creative Oil and Water Photography".
I guess after summer comes winter and after winter comes summer, people are born and people die. That is the circle of life and we cannot change that. The most important thing is to live your life to the fullest. Take risk, jump into each day with joy with a smile on your face and you will get one back ;)
