Default The traveller

The traveller


wave

The traveller closed his eyes and he listened,
and he heard only the river murmuring and the beating of his heart.

wave

Then he heard the river laughing, and he heard the river crying, and in it was the beauty and the sadness of the world


wave

And he heard the sounds of dying, and the sounds of birth and slowly his ears heard all the songs of earth,
and the sounds blended together and they became a whole, and the rhythm was his heartbeat to the music his soul.

love that bright white light highlighting the crest of that wave, particularly in the first shot.

Steve, I love how foreboding the sky and waves look. The 2nd and 3rd particularly caught my eye. Love the processing you did on these, they look like they've been painted rather than photographed! Brilliant - but all of your work is.

The color, the lighting, the waves are all beautiful. And the words, as always, are perfect.
