Daniel, ... I see comments are working again. Fine :-)

Your combinations of quotes and stills always open a space of contemplation.
I think they create visions ripping the surface of ordinary.

And these feelings find new horizons of sense.
very rare nowadays.
ρομπερτ, somehow I am under the impression you have been living in Germany for some time (must be from browsing your whole blog, ;-)) so I guess you understand what I meant to say. Have a nice May, yes!
LS, to me it is mostly collisions. Connection is what the readers make out of this. The most interesting part of this blogging experience, though. Thanks again very much for your always in-depth and thoughtful comments.
