LAST ISSUE'S IMAGE (ISSUE
#48 )-
Orchids in Selby Gardens.
LAST ISSUE'S IMAGERY
To me this was a
very playful picture. I saw dancing figures.
Some of our readers' responses emailed to me were
similar to mine. Others were totally different.
The differences between those who see the whole
and those who see parts also became apparent. See
ISSUE
36 for the creative DNA discussion.
Marva Harvey wrote: "Now this one is obvious!
:) It is a floral crown for the faeries that inhabit
the garden."
Sam Finkelstein stated: "It's a medallion,
a very expensive piece of jewelry. The spots are
gemstones."
Mary Gray wrote: "My first thought was
"Oh, wow" at the colors and contrast of
the speckles on the blossoms. Then I thought these
could be incoming aircraft. There's kind of a sense
of a squadron. But an exotic one, so then I moved
onto thinking of these as alien creatures. Then
I saw the unicorn on the left. Oh, wow!"
More closely akin to what I was seeing:
Debra Schanilec wrote: "LOL!!! THis is the
first one where I "see" something - merry-go-round
figurines, like a delicate horse or reindeer."
and Dellie Rosen: "Once more I am reminded
of a very graceful ballet with swirling skirts."
And, finally, for this conversation, when I emailed
Marva, asking about the crown, I sent her a
close-up of one of the individual figures,as
I saw it. She wrote back:
"Looking at the individual orchids on
the cluster there are ladies/angels/faeries swinging.
I went back to look again at the "legs"
and then I saw clothespin dolls."
"Clothespin Dolls!" That nailed it
for me. Thank you Debra, Dellie, Marva, Mary and
Sam for your contribution to me and, thus, to the
rest of us.
Has this conversation sparked anything different
for you? One of the observations made during the
conclusion of our teleclass phone call last night
was that pausing to take a minute to look longer
at an image or situation allows for seeing things
that may not have been seen before.
At least once today, when you catch yourself
walking, physically or mentally, quickly past something,
pause and relook at it. Become aware. Does anything
open up for you as a result of this? Create a beautiful
day.
