Mind stretch at Knowe of Yarso Chambered Cairn 4K

Within the newly roofed original stone confine

was a way marked out to encounter the divine.

Step by step I moved in closer to the moment

My heart beat in my ears was a rhythmic stream

There could have been an ordeal a wyrd torment

Instead there was in and out all through a dream

In the tomb there finding a womb that had the room

For every connection ever made, even almost made

The impossible mind garden began to beautifully bloom

There was a familiar new inspiring soundtrack being played

The end and the beginning of days was unreleased through haze

Heart beats were slow as an hour so that so much could bloom and flower

In a million, million enlightening encounters were the openings of so many, many ways

The fuel to reach out and to embrace, to know and to continue was a gift of

the ever divine power

I was lost in dim darkness and I was rewarded with the return to the day light.

Somehow, somewhere in darkness there was a blinding glimpse of second sight.

Return to Re-burn as Re-torn and Reborn

 Entrance Interior Graffiti and Summon to Surface Wideford Cairn Orkney Scotland

If only… If only I had time to edit the footage and stills into a great presentation? If only I could bend a little more like I used to be able to, so many if only questions were miracle managed away into workable answers?

“If only,” is where it is. This film is something from 2023 that I did manage to get to. The whole trip was full of virtual potholes in the road for me rather than being resplendent with entrances to another world. Where and when I could I let go of this current consciousness and found what was waiting underground.

Then I called back and left the home for bone in the stone womb and found the surface full of another world as the current climate rapturously unfurled, commination curled and all heath and hell burly hurled as past consciousness updated in a global reset and the seasons fell away to the power of heating warming homes where we enjoy a much more stable life within a much more enriched skin no scarce hunt, no sparse fishing trip will reach our larders, we are all empowered within our guarded borders.

Don’t look Nothing to see here, just 16 edited FAILS, Memories Recorded 4K

Nothing to see here, just a few, (16 if I am counting), failed images more memories recorded than anything else. I am trying new ways to keep my memories alive. Photo storage software is superb at providing me with a pictorial diary and access through mobile phone to so many moments that can be made into memorable moments it is superb I am not. These are some of my pictures made to attach memories to. The scene is out focus lights through a window on a blustery night and it is set to give me an idea of more than the scene set out in front of me. Even more than either the room behind me, or the lights before me as I look out over the Bay of Ireland and Celestrain Sound Orkney. The out of focus lights could include the Taing of Sandside lighthouse on Graemsay Island not far from the ferry port of Stromness harbour.

Nothing failing here except for me. Memory saved here through a window with a storm obscuring some of the view and with purposeful out of focussing helping the rendition along into bright baubles. The memory being saved was in part my not being able to access the out of doors and also the geographic location too.

Avian Circle the first film following the birds around

The Earl’s Palace, Birsay, Orkney, Scotland

The birds chirped and swooped in fragmentary swarms and mutterings bordering upon mini murmurings. The sound and sight was amazing. In taking pictures around The Earl’s Palace at Birsay I missed a major murmuring and a jumbled muttering, but at least I did catch something of the Avian Circle following the birds around The Earl’s Palace, Birsay, Orkney, Scotland.

There was the whole fantastic ruin of The Earl’s Palace at Birsay and as I was being asked to leave my final frames were of this plant seemingly trying to get into the scheduled monument. I was being told that we had other places to go and that it was Refreshments O'clock. The woody stems had my imagination in over drive.

This is a second film presentation with much less strong stressed images. There is a greatly reduced soundtrack. Altogether less sometimes is more, we all have our perception to please.

I nearly wrote tease, please and release, but I thought better of that, the hedgerow has more than enough of plenty within it’s burgeoning boughs.
