a drop of eternity..

Posted by amy (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 11 April 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

What is, will be
What isn't, will never be
But in between is where we are
And that time spent
Is just a drop of eternity

Wonderfully composed Amy! "in between" is "Now" and "Now" is the best access to eternity!

Nice lonely droplet, the background is interesting too, shared in two with nice hints of grey and black. That's really nice.

Anne from White Rock, Canada

Oh My! Amy! This one looks like it is suspended in time - its never going to drop because you've frozen it for eternity! Absolutely Wondeful shot! The light gradation really makes the branch and the drop outstanding! :-)

@bronzebilly u.k.: No time to muse... but sometimes the muses hit me between the eye balls with a ball peen hammer and I end up channeling their words. LOL Thanks billybuddy.

Gary from Cochise County, United States

It looks like there is a skin over the droplet and attached to the branch. We all need to look at things a little closer. Nice shot Amy.
