There was a time when I was completely focused on the things around me.
And either constantly, like Thales of Miletus, I had stared at the sky, or I found small details in the things around me.
To photograph them.
I skillfully chased the clouds and the sun in its sunsets, as I chased the insects in my grandmother's garden.
And for a while I managed to escape successfully.
Because, what is photography, if not an attempt to escape from reality, from life and from yourself.
I was just like Thales, falling into the ditch while looking at the sky, literally and figuratively, because I had a lot of funny moments trying to photograph the sun and the clouds.
I couldn't even stand still in a car when I was traveling, and I was shooting all the time, which, as we all know, is pointless, because the results of shooting on the go can't be good.
Never.
I also have funny stories when I drove my own car and when I poured my coffee on the plush seats when stopping abruptly to take a picture.
But that's another story 📷😃
Now back to the moral of the fable:
"You, O Thales (in my case, it is @soulsdetour, but you can easily replace it with your name), cannot see what is at your feet and you expect to see what is in the heavens?"[from The Astrologer who Fell into a Well]
So, are you still chasing the clouds in the sky? 😉
Pictures were taken with Canon PowerShot G12, a camera that is retired today because one day it got tired of shooting clouds and sunsets 🙂
All magnificent shots, but I really love the ones with sun shining through the clouds.
