Siren the rooster gives me a suspicious look as I sit with my camera. He guards the hens while they enjoy my culinary masterpiece.

Thank you! Siren would have a lovely tail if the girls didn't pick it out. [emoji23]
And they turn my leftovers into another work of art [emoji846][emoji214]🥚

Jakuden,
wow, the colours of the eggs are so beautiful...
I too learned my lesson, that there is also a certain beauty in impermanence.
No time lapse needed over here...
Maybe, just maybe, a certain bunch of zen buddhists, meeting for chinese tea, might behave like a certain bunch of chicken on the other side of the ocean.
Just maybe...
Kokuu,
amazing, how much beauty you found in the dirt.
A fun twist on impermanence. With this subject in mind we are painting lightening in my class. There is nothing more ephemeral, but we are suspending an image in paint... which will take decades or even centuries to fade away.
I really like the premise of this assignment. I am a musician who works with a partner to create original ambient/electronic music. Most of what we create is made spontaneously on the spot with little or no preconceived concept or discussion. When we do perform (which is seldom these days) we take that same approach to the performance. (Side note: sometimes that can fail miserably if we are uninspired or just can't connect). One of the things I like about this is the spontaneity and impermanence
Anyway. Back to the assignment. I was thinking of how I could use music to satisfy the assignment and share it here. Then I realized that the very act of recording the music for reproduction here would actually cause the music to be permanent.
Just rambling I guess but I find it interesting how some creative expressions naturally lend themselves to impermanence and others not as much. Once the note is played, once the dance step is taken, once the prose has been spoken, once the line has been recited it is gone. You may try to repeat it but will never truly replicate it.
this "watercolor" was made on the iPad from a photo I took late in the summer season on a lake in the Adirondacks a few years ago. Late August, some of the leaves had been in the warm water for months being nibbled by insects and fish, yet at the same time a fresh new blossom had just appeared among the older leaves.
