pixels captured

pixels captured
hope spread 
wide, flash
against the snow
power in delicacy
flight
suspended, beauty
almost too sacred
to hold, this
moment


back with the poets today

Lovely and subtle photo! Birds always seem to point to a fleeting moment.

power in delicacy...i like that...these moments of peace and beauty do seem terribly fragile at times...

You've captured something very true here... and very delicately too, as befits your subject. Lovely work. With Best Wishes Scott www.scotthastie.com

That's a lovely photo, a flash against the snow ~

I find it great that, given the delicacy of moments and things we cannot hold, we can still frame them in photos to remind us of them.

Nice piece.

Very nice! I like thinking of the birds themselves as pixels -- so tiny and fleeting, but a part of something larger.

Beauty is almost too sacred to hold, its true, yet somehow we've been allowed to behold it. I like this poem, the flow of it befits the subject.

Love the picture! You are so right that there is power in the delicate. I sometimes believe that the delicate has the most power within. Thank you for sharing your picture and poem :-)

I felt the tone and choice of words were super in this little gem.
