Sometimes it’s all light and color with just a hint of subject matter. Sometimes it’s more. This picture straddles both, leaning to the previous. It’s sort of musical.
That’s just as well. It’s been a musical sort of day. The musicians in my life have been playing sort of tag with me and I with them. We’ve been liking each others’ work on the socials.
We are supposed to be secret keepers. That’s a title of a song, but it isn’t quite so positive. Google it, listen to it and maybe you’ll figure to out.
See what I mean? We are all playing with fire.
Anyway.
All music, all day.
We started with something on the quiet side. A morning mix made by a friend of mine. It only got louder and more energetic from there. Remember Cream’s live version of “Crossroads?” Like that.
I don’t know what we were thinking. The neighbors wondered if we were thinking.
I don’t believe we were. After so many months in lockdown, it was time to feel, not think.
That was Sunday. Today is Monday. Either we get back to thinking or just keep going. I vote for the latter.
You?
Bokeh. The Japanese word that means the quality of the background in a photograph. Somebody started using the word and it became a thing. It’s not really a thing. Japanese people don’t even use it.
The bokeh in this picture is fake. It was created by software on OnOne. Real bokeh is creamy and is created by the quality of the lens used to make the picture.
I used it to hide a billion imperfections, which is just about the only time that I use it.
The rest of the photograph is real. So there.
Stay safe. Stay mighty. Wear your mask. Keep your distance. Look after each other.
