This week, we have been asked to show images that evoke sounds. I am starting with musical sounds..
First up, the gentle notes of the harp:
And on the subject of musicians, this one was a bit noisier:
Now let’s hear some different sounds of water. First, splashing water on the pavement:
and now we move to a group of fountains at thee Villa d’Este in Lazio, Italy:
and now the louder sound of some waves crashing close to the shore:
For a change in sound, here are some cars racing around the streets of Angoulème in France
And finally, the sounds evoked by this painting of a bull in full charge:
Well, that’s it from me. For more, head over to Donna’s here
I like the fountain photo. I haven’t mastered the art of photographing water as yet. My efforts mostly fall flat when I try, the good ones are by chance rather than knowing what I am doing. Great illustrations all round. And I rather face that bull on a poster than in real life.
It helps if you have always used manual settings on the camera, makes it easier! But hope you can get playing around with shutter speeds to get the results you want
😊
Great stuff Sue. I particularly like your watery offerings.
Many thanks! I have had fun with those over the years….. 😊😊
I don’t like the way that bull is looking at me, Sue 🤔. Villa d’Este looks perfect 🩵
That bull has attitude…
So do I, on occasion, Sue, but I’m much less threatening. Sending hugs!
Tee hee! I think bulls are frightend
Great sounds, Sue, especially the thundering waterfalls
Pleased you like these, Debbie ..
the Este fountain/waterfall took a bit of lining up
Great choices, the city fountain and waterfall. They are so my sounds. Car races. noice, some love it others not so much
Pleased you like the water ones, Ritva, and know that the noise of fast cars is not for everyone!
Great choices, Sue. I could imagine the sound of those cars on city streets.
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks, Pete – the Circuit des Remperts at Angoulème is quite an event
Love the crash of waves on a beach…. I once had a friend whos daughter became a Harpist, he also complained he had to get a van to take her and of course her Harp, to concerts.
Good these images have evoked memories, David
These look fantastic Sue.
Many thanks, Leanne!
Terrific choices Sue – loved them all (the harp is especially beautiful) but THAT BULL!!!! Wow, extraordinary.
Pleased you liked them Tina- and yes, THAT bull’
I can hear the waves the loudest. I love the sound of the sea.
Yippee! So do I!
