Photographs and Memories III - Eye

I recently retwittered a tweet I read: "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eye". Photography to me takes the same voyage. It's all about developing good eye: the ability to spot, recognize, capture and construe beauty and magnificence out of the ordinary. Further, I'd like to think the "eye" here is not literally our understanding of eye as an organ eye. Of course, being observant is a given. I like to think the "eye" here refer more so to our third eye, the ability to transpire insight and to rise above ordinary. I just browsed my Flickr photos taken in the year of 2009. Didn't find any good third eye photos. There are perhaps a few of my literal good eye (organ eye) photos from 2009.


Dancing
Once tangoed to a sad ending



Coupling
Togetherness to sunset



Singing
Music notes unknown but sounds so pleasant




Failling
Fragile descending
A raindrop to a rose pedal



Trapping
The more you build, the more you are stuck.



Plunging
Throw yourself in to leave a trail
