Chapter 23: Magic

Created by vigil at | [+ favourites]
"Then I will chant", he said. And he began, looking like a strange boy spirit.

"The sun is shining - the sun is shining. That is Magic. The flowers are growing - the roots are stirring. That is Magic. Being alive is Magic - being strong is Magic. The Magic is in me - the Magic is in me. It is in me - it is in me. It's in every one of us. It's in Ben Weatherstaff's back. Magic! Magic! Come and help!"

- The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett

I love this book and this moment in the book. Good choice. Love your pictures too. May I ask what sort of camera you use? Thanks

vigil

Thanks, Barbara.

All of these pictures have been taken with a Nikon D300 & a 17-70mm Sigma lens.

Barbara

OK thanks. I love these pics and so I want the same camera/lens that you have!!!

When you upgrade, can I buy it from you???!! (I'm only half-kidding...)

I've always loved photography but don't understand the technical stuff too well. Use just a point-and-click now. Bleh.

Enjoyed 'Moving thru slumber' article too, as it gets at why we love to take pictures!! "Third eye"-- right!

Dawn

The webs: really captures the idea that magic awaits within hidden places, you just have to look at it the right way to see it ...and feel it Lovely!

Barbara: I actually might be selling the camera body soon on ebay, so if you're still looking for this one, keep an eye out on the forums, as I may post an ebay link to it at some point.

Dawn: Yes, exactly. And I think my favourite time of the day to be out taking pictures is the afternoon, the soft light, golden glows, growing shadows and halo effects as the sun goes down, are all so whimsical and beautiful, that it makes it hard for me to not see the magic of it all.
