Let’s say that my blog is a TV channel and everybody is on holidays. I will play repeats. But not repeats from my blog; I will play repeats from my Flickr. For the next few weeks I will be copying from there and pasting here a selection of my photos which I had taken care beforehand to tag: “blogged”. These are not exactly the “most commented” ones. The “blogged photos” are the ones that brought about interesting stories, discussions and information. All of them put together make something like a documentary.

“the rain in Ikariain falls mainly on the mountains”

Posted on Ιουνίου 25, 2009. Filed under: choses vécues, exploring, photography | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

BAD: the electric network is old and very badly maintained, so lightnings cause many blackouts.
GOOD: the lightnings show superwow in a blackouted landscape at night
SO-SO: I tried to take a picture of a lightning and of course I failed. I captured the rain on the trees and the strange light in the sky.
P.S. I [...]

γιαλελί κακούργα -or the unpublished loneliness of mine & tromba marina et ’sauve qui peut’

Posted on Ιουνίου 24, 2009. Filed under: choses vécues, flying, photography, stories | Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , |

άμε και πάλι γύρισε πουλί μ’ αγαπημένο
-ντούρνα, ντούρνα, ντούρνα, μας έπιασε φουρτούνα-
και μη μ’ αφήνεις μοναχό και παραπονεμένο
Ντούρνα, ντούρνα, ντούρνα, μας έπιασε φουρτούνα,
ε, γιαλελί κακούργα, μας έπιασε φουρτούνα.
————————————————————————–
Go, my beloved bird, make sure you come back to me again
-durna**, durna, durna, we are caught in the storm-
don’t leave me here to whine all lonely,
oh, [...]

This one in particular is a zoom in of “la tromba marina”.

ΝΤΟΥΡΝΑ
—————
Ήλιε μου στο βασιλεμό θέ να σου παραγγείλω
-ντούρνα, ντούρνα, ντούρνα, μας έπιασε φουρτούνα-
να πάεις να μου χαιρετάς το κόκκινό μου μήλο.
Ντούρνα, ντούρνα, ντούρνα, μας έπιασε φουρτούνα,
ε, γιαλελί κακούργα, μας έπιασε φουρτούνα.
