Once again,  a double paged image.  If i'd ripped it to …fit… i would have lost parts that i could not lose….

the small illusive illuminations appearing in photographs,  sometimes like this….of existing forms.  Sometimes floating orbs of light,  often soft neon  blue or green.  The feeling that they are always there like this but show themselves this way in certain moments.  How seeing them…they are Seeds.   Maybe visual seeds of understanding about the Unknowable.

Prompt:  the essential you that speaks to an important part of yourself that has rarely/never been included in the way you've used   [seen]  this type of image in the past.

i can't connect it any better…just a way i Be sometimes when i am open enough to understand in such a momentary way how Everything is Everything  and vibrating at such a high frequency

this is a stretch,  i know.    but i'd made a deal with self before i began this challenge to not second guess.  To not evaluate on whether it is OK or not.  To receive what comes without judgement.   So…again.  not much of a collage which by definition consists of pieces.    It is possible that i will go back.   at the end of the 30 days and find that i can alter.  Maybe,  maybe not.

I love this.  Very Much.

    what a fabulous image. I love the place you took this prompt. You collaged the little pieces to the bigger image and will collage the results to a page. By any “rule” this makes the cut.
    It’s just wonderful. Another day ending with some very big smiles.

    I am reminded of lightning bugs as a child. I called them that- they certainly had a real name but I don’t know it and G has gone to bed.. The little back segment of their bodies would flash with light. A mating thing? Never have seen them here in Maine or any other State but Ohio. some children collected them in jars. I didn’t. I do now recall seeing quite a few when we visited the cabin on the river where G’s parents retired- Wisconsin. They would look like this if photographed.

    thank you for opening my eyes several years ago to “the small illusive illuminations appearing in photographs” …
    and I just read about how incredibly small the band of visible-to-us colors is on the electromagnetic spectrum … how there are creatures that have additional cones in their eyes making it possible for them to see things that we can’t even imagine … what else is “always there” I wonder?

    I just took a bunch of pix in the woods with K and dog where a green glowing dot appeared. In about six pix! The going back to rework collage is almost a given. Or going back to find an interesting variation. What I WILL say about this, tho, is that I think this vibratory sensitivity of yours is well known. At least to readers here. And by the way, haven’t done this prompt yet. Time is an issue but also, what will The image be?
