Ephermal Manipulation By Andy Goldsworthy

“Only love interests me, and I am only in contact with things that revolve around love.”

Today i walked home and i saw the sun shining through the autumn leaves-ephemeral and godly. I stood there, amongst the leaves and a feeling of calamity washed over me. I feel like everything will be okay.

Last night i went with my family to this little italian restaurant in Brunswick. It had these amazing metal doors, lots of flickering candles and fairy lights. An Italian man was on this little stage playing the guitar, it was so angelic. We ate dinner and then it began to pour with rain but we were cosy with all the candles💕💕💕

All the colours look brighter now Everything they say seems to sound new Slipping into tomorrow too quick Yesterday always too good to forget Stop the swing of the pendulum Let us through

Colors of Earth

When we think of our globe from a distance, we generally visualize two colors: blue and green. Water and land. Mostly water, consequently, our planet’s nickname of the blue marble.

Traveling around the globe every 90 minutes covering millions of miles with a focused lens on our beautiful planet from 250 miles above, I’ve captured many beautiful colors beyond blue and green that showcase Earth in new and interesting ways. Some colors are indicative of nature like desert sands and weather like snow. Other colors tell stories of Earth’s climate in bright splashes of yellows and greens of pollen and muted grey tones and clouded filters of pollution.

Blue and green still remain vivid and beautiful colors on Earth from the vantage point of the International Space Station, but here are some other colors that have caught my eye from my orbital perspective.

African violet

Bahamas blues

Tropical in Africa

Yellow desert

Orange in Egypt

Red surprise

“We often forget that WE ARE NATURE. Nature is not something separate from us. So when we say that we have lost our connection to nature, we’ve lost our connection to ourselves.”
