Our guest host, Brian of bushboys world, sets out a poetic challenge this morning in wisps of memory, a fragrant breeze, a wistful thought, a glimpse behind a curtain of time.

Fragments begin an exploration of extrapolation…what is mssng? How to fll t n? Perhaps all photography is fragmentary. No image captures it all. I am reminded of an exercise I once did in art class. We were given a small card with a simple configuration of lines. We were to paste it onto a bigger piece of paper and create a larger drawing around it. In other words, we were given a fragment and asked to reconstruct a whole, using as much imagination as we could muster.

Terrific response Priscilla. Loved the sound of the school project – what a creative teacher!! Also loved your images and the concept that truly every photograph is a fragment. So true.
Thanks, Tina! 🙂
I love your beach fragments, too! Literal and full of imagination as well. What do we make of the shipwrecks in our lives?
Loved your words, Priscilla. The photos are a creative and expansive look at “once upon a time…” Yes. Photos are fragments. I say that so often when we visit expansive views (like the Grand Canyon). You cant capture it all so you have to decide what pieces you will capture to tell THAT story. I love all your photos. The most unique for me were the rope and the bark of the tree. Always a pleasure, Priscilla.
Thanks so much, Donna! Yes, even your blog name suggests you have a great understanding of fragments and how evocative they are!
I guess that’s true.
Truly inspirational, a response full of feeling. I loved your post, thank you.
My pleasure, Sofia! Thanks for the compliment!
Great fragments Priscilla!
Thanks!
Great fragments Priscilla!
Thanks, Anne!

What you have written is so good and does extrapolate the essence of what I was trying to entice from people and photos Priscilla. I love the rope which is a story in itself 😀
Thanks, Brian! You set up a great challenge. Well done!
😁

Great selections. Love the doll’s head with rabbit. Benign or macabre? 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Benign entropy?
Wonderful photos as ever. Loved the photo of the little leftover bits of cheese.
Thanks!
Love the artefacts and Buddha
Thanks!
