The Photo Focus Photography Blog takes a look and examines how many of us actually are wasting time with our photography, and how we can cut things down to where we are having more photos that are "keepers"
I love a good portrait! I mean, who doesn't? But my fetish would have to be portraits, and so that's why I've posted up a bunch of my favourites! All different kinds, showing faces, not showing faces, having silent meanings, or just beauty in general. Enjoy!
A collection of inspirational and special selected photos during the last weeks. Being an artist is more then just making artwork, it is about appreciating other peoples wonderful visions. Show them some love
"Tea first. Then be ready." From Twin Peaks, Episode 5
The first cup moistens my lips and throat; The second cup breaks my loneliness; The third cup searches my barren entrail but to find therein some thousand volumes of odd ideographs; The fourth cup raises a slight perspiration-all the wrongs of life pass out through my pores; At the fifth cup I am purified; The sixth cup calls me to the realms of the immortals. The seventh cup-ah, but I could take no more! I only feel the breath of the cool wind that raises in my sleeves. Where is Elysium? Let me ride on this sweet breeze and waft away thither. Lu Tung (Chinese poet during T'ang Dynasty) "Tea-Drinking"
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me. C.S. Lewis
The best quality tea must have creases like the leathern boot of Tartar horsemen, curl like the dewlap of a mighty bullock, unfold like a mist rising out of a ravine, gleam like a lake touched by a zephyr, and be wet and soft like a fine earth newly swept by rain. Lu Yu
Each cup of tea represents an imaginary voyage. Catherine Douzel
"I don't drink coffee, I take tea my dear" Sting, from "Englishman in New York"
Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves - slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future. Thich Nat Hahn
There is no trouble so great or grave that cannot be much diminished by a nice cup of tea. Bernard-Paul Heroux
If you are cold, tea will warm you; If you are too heated, it will cool you; If you are depressed, it will cheer you; If you are excited, it will calm you. Gladstone- Victorian British Prime Minister
"Red alert. Put the kettle on!" From Monty Python's Flying Circus
"Good tea. Nice house." Star Trek: Worf, trying to be diplomatic (The Survivors)
"Teaism is a cult founded on the adoration of the beautiful among the sordid facts of everyday existence. It inculcates purity and harmony, the mystery of mutual charity, the romanticism of the social order." Okakura Kakuzo
Typical Tea conversation at my house - " . . .Would you like some tea?" "Okay." "Alright, I've got chamomile, I've got chamomile mango, I've got chamomile mint, I've got peppermint, I've got spearmint, I've got evening mint, I've got plantation mint, I've got. . . don't look at me like that, it's my sister's fault, SHE did this to me. . . where was I, . . . I've got Evening Jewel, I've got tangerine, I've got. . ."
Sí man i yulma nin enquantuva? Who now shall refill the cup for me? J.R.R Tolkien, Galadriel 'Namarie'

A light from the shadow shall spring
Renewed shall be blade that was broken
The crownless again shall be king

Play for me, Minstrel, my love,
play a harp, her neck is of gold,
in a dance, which covers my soul,
I'll become the mirror of my thoughts...
