A perfect fit !!
I’ve always seen and heard the world around me with a distorted tilt.
Now I get to show you a little of how it appears to me…
but first…just to set the mood.
Something Magic – Procol Harum
In the centre of the storm
Something magic being born
When the world is torn apart
By the beating of a heart
Like a dam about to burst
Like a drunkard’s crazy thirst
In the centre of the storm
Something magic being born
It’s the dark hours of the soul
When the nightmares take their toll
When the shadows come to mock
Against the ticking of the clock
When the demons of the night
Come like vultures for their bite
In the dark hours of the soul
When the nightmares take their toll
It’s the dawning of the day
Night-time’s panic swept away
When the clouds which seemed so dark
Are exchanged for morning’s lark
When the stars which burnt so bright
Are exchanged for morning light
In the dawning of the day
Nightime’s panic swept away

Some would say a shot gone wrong...but I love this one of Bay Dixie.

This shot was just luck...no editing.

Distort
deviation flows
impartial influence forces me to
stumble, sway,
orientation points for
twisted visions my
realization, what lies under
the tarnish

I love the 2nd shot!
Thank you – I like that one as well. Lots of great memories from the place/the time/the people.
Great photos.
Thank you.
It’s 03:08 in the morning where I live. Mood has been set successfully!
Listening to the song on loop.
I learnt what an Acrostic Poem is from your post. Thank you
They can be fun…acrostic poems.
What a clever and entertaining presentation. Love the selection of photos especially second one. Tunnel vision.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
I rather like THAT one myself.
Great one! The second photo feels like it is coming right at you!
It does do that…
Wow! Looking at the second photo for longer than two seconds could easily cause vertigo. Great entries Jo!
I can’t look at it for too long either or I feel a bit off centre.
… I remember Procul Harem ” A Whiter Shade Of Pale” … That’s all I need for this lifetime … OMG, thank you for reminding me at this time in my life ,Jo … Love, cat.
I think most people know that song…but I really love some of the other stuff.
What a brilliant post Jo, packed with entertainment! The photos are great – I like the road best and then you write an acrostic as well,awesom!
(I was quite pleased with myself because for once i realised what it was before i read down)
Hey Gilly…so glad you liked it.
Great shots! I like the second one
Thanks Britten…it seems to be the general favourite.
These are really good, distorted shots!
So happy you think so…it was what I was going for.
The last was really Fabulous so was the second one, very good!
Thanks Rupertt…the last one has some great memories for me. Actually each photo is special for their own reason to me.
Kind of like kids really.
I agree with you. Sometimes my favorite photos are the ones that are blurry and people are like that’s too bad it didn’t turn out. They don’t see what I see.
When I first saw it it never occurred to me to feel anything but …yes !!! Then someone said:”But it is blurred.” All I could think was: “Isn’t that great !”
My favourite is the one of the musicians it has a certain magical charm.
I love that one too…they were really fun guys…and the photo to me is just exactly representative of them.
I don’t have to pick a favourite, do I? Love them all!
Awwwwwwwwwww Patti…that is such a lovely thing to say !!!
Thank you.
You did a great job with distortion, and offered a variety of photos too.
Thank you. I love playing with photos…especially ones that don’t seem to jump out at you at first sight…to see what I can make of them. I guess it is my form of art…
what an original post, Jo!
clicks, music and poem.
joy comes in the morning. i love it.
Thanks…so glad you enjoyed it.
You put a lot of work into this! Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thanks for visiting Anne.
One thing is clear: this post rocks!
I love it when you talk like that…hehehehehe
Might be the rum, but all the images looked quite normal to me.
Love Procol Harum, fell for them the first time I heard Whiter Shade of Pale (been there, done that 
) Great Job Jo!
I think it was definitely the rum…hehehe
sound waves — very cool, the first. enjoyed them all.
Thanks.
Awesome serie, all are well done
Why thank you Madman.
The musicians are flowing with their tune. You got the feel of it!
You said it perfectly…that is exactly how it was.
great shots

Thank you Amar. I love that you think so.
I think I need glasses after looking at these photos! I had a boozy weekend and thought I’d recovered until I saw these lol, they are making me dizzy! Great fun, as ever Jo.
I have a really hard time looking at number two for too long…
Great Entry for the theme
Thank you Jake.
Papeete Harbor looks really nice even if distorted.
It was beautiful. All of Tahiti was amazing…
