Spring performance.

I wanted to write about the Earth ... How indinspensable it is in our life. About the fact that so far we have not found and probably for days or never we will  find another place where we could live.

I could write about the beauty of our planet seen from space.  I could show you wonderful places, landscapes, unforgettable  shots, which are  easily available on the Internet.

However, I am going to write about ... spring, about last year's memory.  I will show in the pictures what we do not see, what we pass by, what is hidden.

After the spring thaws, I came across a stream which appeared out of thin air.

I bowed over flowing, glistening in the sun water. Then the amazing perfomance began. The dancing colours arranged in abstract patterns. They changed due to sunlight, flowing water,  the distance and the angle. I was  fascinated looking at it for a long time. When the sun hid behind the trees, "the curtain came down".

The photos I took  did not fully reflect this amazing experience. However, thanks to them I could find out something else. The closer the camera lens was to the water surface, the more abstract the view was. The refractions of the water acted as variable lenses,  which caused  the sunlight to create wonderful images. Pure abstraction.

Our world does not always look the way it seems to be. We only see things indinspensable to survive. Everything else, although unnoticeable, is a present from our planet for us.  

So, making a mention of the spring, I also wrote about our planet – things necessary to live on Earth: water and the Sun and about  beauty around us which unfortunately we don`t perceive.
