AbsOrbed

Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) Maybe a little better on black :-)

Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) This was an Orb of the Andrew Wiles Building in Oxford where I was trying to use the Orb technique for a second time. Don't quite know what I did but I was surprised by this result :-)

Added to ~ Sight and Sound and AbsOrbed I used a mirror effect filter (GIMP software) here. Lalah Hathaway recorded "Mirror" for me so that I could use this song and photo in Sight and Sound :-) And, because this is Abstract...ish I have also added it to AbsOrbed ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Mirror ~ Lalah Hathaway

Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) Added to ~ Sight and Sound and AbsOrbed More messing 'bout in GIMP Photo Software :-) I was only goin' to add this to AbsOrbed but then I thought there is a tower here so I could also link this to "Ivory Tower" by Blackmore's Night :-) This shot features the Andrew Wiles Building and the Radcliffe Observatory (now part of Green Templeton College) topped by The Tower of Winds in Oxford. ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Ivory Tower ~ Blackmore's Night

Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) Probably GIMP should have been taken away from me but 'tis too late now :-) This Goose has been given the 'Symmetrize' treatment :-) Which leads to "Green Eyes" by Kate Wolf. Kate is another singer taken from us way too soon! I know it is Nina Gerber playing acoustic guitar but I would really like to know who is playing bass/singing harmony. Added to ~ Sight and Sound and AbsOrbed ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Green Eyes ~ Kate Wolf I find this such a beautiful and peaceful song. And, we need so much Peace in this world right now!! Remembering those lost and those still suffering in Belgium.

Added to ~ Sight and Sound and AbsOrbed I sometimes think photo software ought to be taken away from me :-) This shot of part of Boscombe Pier was intended to be an Orb! But, I think I flipped horizontally when I should have flipped vertically or vice versa :-) After that, things started to go downhill rapidly :-) Initially, there was only one light so perhaps I hit 'Symmetrize'. Also, there has been some 'Dream Smoothing' applied :-) As there are two lights and some sea I figure a 'Sight and Sound' link to "Same Sea" by Lights is permissible :-) ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Same Sea ~ Lights Carol has suggested I could add a second track and that is "My Favourite Mistake" by Sheryl Crow....... So I have :-))))) Thank you, Carol ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ My Favourite Mistake ~ Sheryl Crow

Added to ~ Sight and Sound and AbsOrbed This was the Oxford University Biochemistry Building before I got let loose on it :-) Not exactly sure 'wot' I did but that's 'par for the course' :-) Anyway, could have involved the Perspective filter in GIMP :-) I feel sure "True Colours" by both Cyndi Lauper and Phil Collins has been used in our Group. I have, therefore, gone for the version by Celtic Woman. ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ True Colours ~ Celtic Woman

Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) Added to ~ Sight and Sound and AbsOrbed This is a window in the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford given the GIMP Software treatment with a dash of Nik Software :-) A bit of a tenuous link but there are some circles and parts of circles here so I think I can get away with a link to "The Circle Game" by Tom Rush. This was, of course, written by Joni Mitchell :-) ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ The Circle Game ~ Tom Rush p.s. maybe view on black :-)

Added to ~ Sight and Sound and AbsOrbed This is one of the windows in The Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford. I was let loose with GIMP Photo Software.....as often happens :-) I think I applied a cube/frame effect or similar and I think the result looks, very vaguely, like a tunnel of love. So, a wayward link to "Tunnel of Love" by Doris Day sounds good to moi :-) ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Tunnel of Love ~ Doris Day
