ABOUT THE PHOTO

Any regulars on my blog will know how much I LOVE long exposures, especially of water and so I wanted to start my Photo Games week off with this one. I think it's more open in terms of interpretation than a wider landscape would have been, what do you guys think? Looking forward to seeing what you hear when you look at this one!


RULES & HOW TO PLAY

For MUSICAL MONDAY we would like you to Share a song that best matches the picture. What does our photo sound like?

It could be lyrical or instrumental, operatic or screamo, but pick something that you think each Photo Star will like.

You can give us the song title or share a link to DTube, Youtube, etc. Links are great, but it’s okay to just write the title and artist if the song is easy to find, like “Hey Jude by The Beatles,” (not “Adagio for Clarinet II, opus 245 by my friend who lives next door”).

  1. Share your music in the comments of a Photo Star’s post.
  2. Only one song per person, per post/photostar.
  3. Remember that you’re appealing to the Photo Star who posted the photo (they will choose the winner).
  4. For this game you have 2 days to play (Wednesday 6PM EST / 11PM UTC).

I thought of the lyrics from this song + plus the longer tempo of this song... then i went on a search for the most fitting rendition.

Enya - Only Time

Can't beat a bit of Enya!

I actually had 4 songs pick out for your image... it was hard to narrow it down but I wanted something calm and tranquil but with some mood and depth, a bit of light and shade : )

Oooh I like this one.

Thank you : )

Ok, I had NOOOOO idea what to share. So I just decided to share a cover I did myself some time ago... Let me know if it opens.

Yeap, I recorded that many years ago. It's a home recording. Nothing fancy.

Oh my goodness that's beautiful!!!!!! Do you have more of your music online?

I think so. I have to look. And If I don't I'll just have to start making some right?

Yes, I sincerely hope that you do make new ones, either way.

love the smooth Sax in there! Very cool!

It took me half of a second to remember this...

Very cool, more instrumental loveliness!

Love Damien Rice!

Absolutely love Damien Rice, great shout!

I know it's more like poetry than music but the whole image sugessts me this mood

Definitely something a bit different! It's a bit 'bright eyes' but more poetry focussed!

I Am a Rock by Simon and Garfunkel.

This is either absolute genius or just super lazy ;)

I would argue that it's the former ;)

hahahaha

First of all: Whoever comes up with those creative contests should be praised, well done guys, delivering an exciting and creative contest week after week.

Regarding the image:
My pick for this particular image is No Time For Caution by Hans Zimmer from the Interstellar OST.

(I'm seeing this image from left to right / bottom to top, which is not necessarily the "physically correct" way)

Initially, there's calmness and order, the water is flowing, not caring about anything other. Slowly, uncertainty is building up - we begin to see ripples inside our flowing water. Uncertainty gradually increases, the outside of our "flowing water channel" is now full of chaos and shadows, light is fading. Chaos is now also finding a way inside our channel - we just want to peacefully flow - uncertainty and chaos increase to maximum, we see that our path is blocked. The only hope is that following the light will save us. Will we make it? Here comes the end.

Wow, what an awesome description, I love a bit of Zimmer, actually any instrumental music like this is always a stand out for me!

Well, thank you, I'm glad you enjoying the Photo Games! Always nice to hear feedback like this. :D

As for the song, you can never go wrong with Mr. Zimmer.

Still by Lionel Richie

Something soft and sensual about the flow of the water, so I have to with this song.

You can almost feel the water crashing over you as the music plays. lol

I feel like they really couldn't be arsed with this video!

Yeah, they were probably like "this song will never catch on."
