here is a simple glass bowl. (the resonance of a brass tibetan prayer bowl helps evoke a meditative mind and relaxes your body and releases stress. the handmade ones are by far the best.)

let's see if we can conjure some cool shadows from it

we can edit in some color (Color Line is a norwegian ferry and cruiseship company connecting norway to sweden, denmark and germany)

move it around a little (little norway was established in canada during world war 2 by the norwegian government in exile. it was a training center for norwegian forces preparing them to enter into battles in occupied north norway.)

zoom in and change the angle. the top of the image is viewing through the side of the bowl and the bottom of the image is viewing through the bottom of the bowl so the distortion in the middle comes from light passing through the curve where the bottom and side of the bowl meet

here's a different setup (100 years ago (Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti were setup and executed. the two politically active anarchists were wrongfully convicted near Boston, Massachusetts in 1921 . it was a dark day for justice.)

edit in some color

or turn the image upside down (county down in northern ireland was frequently raided by vikings in the 7-900's but strong local resistance prevented the norsemen from ever establishing any permanent settlements there)

or take the shot from another angle ("angle" is another word for fish hook. sports fishing with a rod, line and hook is therefore referred to as angling)

and here's a pitcher. (Billy Monbouquette pitched a no-hitter for the Boston Red Sox away against the Chicago White Sox in 1962. a second-inning walk was the only baserunner the White Sox managed. my pipe-smoking great grandfather was an avid Red Sox fan. we watched that game together. Monbo was my favorite pitcher.)

let's pour some water over the bowl

various positions (when leonard cohen released his album various positions in europe it included classics like "halleluja, if it be your will, dance me to the end of love, and the captain" colombia records first refused to release it in the usa. they claimed "This isn't pop music. We're not releasing it. This is a disaster" check it out.)
p1250921.jpg

give various effects (effect is a noun which means the result of a change. affect is a verb which means to produce a change in something. So, when an event affects your life, you feel the effects of the event.)

let's finish off with some more color
