Inspired

As far as we permit ourselves to open up our eyes now and then, the eternal story-telling will continue.



That is why a spider develops eight eyes so to see more, and to reproduce these exuberant stories that blend together past and present, and that connect imagination and reality in the form of a magical web. 




Some of us then interpret it in a distance, others as a mythbuster would have an in-depth experience by going into it. That is how I who have five eyes stay inspired between being creative or acting like the biggest idiot on earth.

My five eyes: another two from a pair of spectacles and one from the DSLR.

Thanks for explaining the five eyes part! And to have five eyes like you to produce these stunning images, I should adapt three more eyes for myself.

Your five eyes allow you to be very creative. They also allow you to get excellent photographs to share with us.

Wcale nie trzeba mieć wielu oczu, żeby być kreatywnym, Ty z pewnością nią jesteś. *** Przykro mi , że Tłumacz u mnie nie działał. Powiem więc, że dzisiejszy mój post był z okazji drugich urodzin bloga. Pozdrawiam.
You do not need to have many eyes to be creative, you're certainly it. *** I'm sorry Translator did not work for me. I'd say that today my post was to celebrate the second birthday of the blog. Yours.

Gorgeous spiders Rain! You live in such a wonderful area so rich in biodiversity.

And I also like the angle of the first shot very much, as it shows the web patterns so beautifully.

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

Aha -- I wondered about the 5th one and you are so right -- it is like another eye...I often find out that the camera has seen things my other four missed!

Lovely post.
