About Hi everybody.
This is shot was taken two days ago when I was crying. I thought what a god idea to take some photos when Im crying, and although I was not feeeling very well, I took somem shots from myself.
Teardrop, in my opinion is the symbol of ultimate emotion,whether happy or sad.

That's the way we express our extrme happiness or sadness.
anyway, this is the second time I cry since long ago.And Im pretty much happy. Because when you cry you become like a little child when crying for something.
and you will be free of many of twists in your mind and heart.
When a teardrop runs and as it touch your face skin,to me,that's truely innocent and at the same time poetic moment.

I may try sending the other shots.Im not sure yet.

This is the cropped version of the original shot.

I'd be glad to hear about your 1st impression of looking at this shot.

my dear and kind Nicole,
Thanks for your pleasing comment.
Im a lot better,and im happy that I could cry.as you said,i believe feelings is like a river that should not be stopped. The purity of a feeling is exposed to us when we leave it as it is. and that's why when you feel sad,you better accept it that you are sad.and never try to pretend im happy. It's nothing wrong with that. You feel to cry,cry. don't worry. You want to laugh ,laugh. SADNESS and HAPPINESS are the most valuable feelings we have. that can make our life balanced. and give meaning to hour moments. I know sadness may cause depression, but it happens when you are SAD that you are SAD. that's very bothering to be sad of sadness. If we learn how to confront and accept our feelings then we can be AWARE of them and never let us be a eternal surrender. or think in a wrong way that will throw our mind into a fake imagnination and thought.
I know that you understand what Im pointing out.

Good luck my dear, and thanks for your remarkable comment. Glad to be in touch with wide-sighted people like you.

Take care,
Stay Green,
Ardalan.

Hi Ardalan,
a daring position in this one, you like to express emotions with your photo's don't you? Men that admit they cry and then take a picture of it are a rare breed :) No offence meant my friend, just noticing it.
Anyhow, as I said before a peculiar point of view, almost abstract indeed, makes me think landscape or yes abstract. The sepia toning works well here.
Also the shallow DOF looks good and one can still see the eye looking down, not being blurred totaly.
Very good! 7

Grtz,

Alain

Hiiiiiiiiii Srna,
Welcome to world of photography,
Thanks for your intimate and extremely friendly comment.
What can I say,im so glad of being in touch with this universe gracious living creatures and I know at least this that we are all connceted to each othe through this universe. May be we haven't heard of each other before ,too far away in two different spots of the globe. But, feelings and thoughts are not dependent on location. They are flying to wherever they like. That's why we can feel each other, even if we are far away.
And the way you think is exaclty influence your life with the people to whom you will talk and meet.

Ok, agian, my pleasure to be in touch with you.
Indeed,it's we to learn from each other,and im proud of it.

Great and Precious moments are yours, have them all in your heart, take care of them, even if life is hard.

Thanks my friend,
God bless you too,
Ardalan

My dear new intresting and full of life and philosopht friend...thanks for uour suggestions, yes, I would keep all you wrote in my mind..
Well, my first impression of looking at this shot is a good feeling you are honest and openharted gay. It is not good to push your sad or happy feeling inside of you, let them go out, u would feel much better...like a u feel the freedom :))))))))))
Hope we would stay in touch through our photos and learning from each other.
God bless u! Srna

You're welcome, dear Ardalan. I am glad I checked back on this photo, because for some reason, I did not receive your reply.

Yes, my dear mother is still living. She is 80 years old and in good health. She is a great blessing to me.
She is actually a live-in caregiver to a man with cancer.

I'm sorry you were sad, dear Ardalan. But it is good that you thought to photograph your tears. It is the sign of the ultimate photographer. My Mom says that I could be on my death bed, but if I saw a good photo op...I would drag myself out of the bed for it.;)
