Beautiful posting – I think your words captured the unique sensuality of September and your use of imagery is simply gorgeous. You pulled off the double! And I smiled too! Love, Harlon
I enjoyed both the tanka and the clever use of varying focus in the video. The e-mail announcing the post displayed the 1st frame as if it was just a single photo (with the near blossom blurry), so I was puzzled about the intent until I visited the page and saw the fun with focus as the video progressed.
Thank you Mellow. I am playing around with my Lytro camera. They are a little tricky and I have a steep learning curve. I figured out how to create it as a movie but the web link only allows the static photo that the viewer can tap to change the depth of field.

Sultry – I love that word. There’s something naughty about it – like a word you wouldn’t say in front of children…

Unfortunately, there is no hint that tapping will do anything beyond leave a smudge.
