Imagination







The pictures are taken from a blog called, In(side)theLoop.com, in case you want to see more of the unbelievable photography of Will Steacy. The artist is Edgar Mueller from Germany, and he does unbelievable and mysterious art work, all, a joy to see. It made me think of imagination and how wonderful each of us has a brain filled with it. We can be sitting quietly, not thinking of anything in particular, when we see something that sets our imagination off, like a line of Pelicans flying in for the first of this season and we start imagining where they came from, where they will land, and if we will have the pleasure of their company for awhile. Or we can walk along the boardwalk and look at the small boats tied up waiting for their owners to untie them and take them out to sea. Our imagination kicks in and we can send them to exotic places or just out pass the bar for a short fishing trip. As for the photographer, if you go and see the blog you will see a variety of pictures he has taken in the dead of night and it will fire your imagination to heights you wont believe. City living is interesting and terrifying as the night people try to survive . . . or not.
On the other hand there are artists with imaginations that take us to the height of pleasure. We have to admire them as they use flora and fauna to create. Here on our beaches we have storms that bring in drift wood that fill the entire beach. It goes from a few small pieces to an entire beach filled with every size and shape of trees, trunks and branches that are thought to be a nuisance until some one, like the ladies above, use their imagination . . . look what they made. I wouldn't mind a couple of those lovely horses on my front lawn. I have seen baskets of wood made from the trees, so beautiful and so hard to describe. How blessed we are to have imagination and use it to create so much beauty in our world.
I hope you are creating something beautiful today and using your imagination.
