Here in this photo I really feel the spirit of Patti Smith, Nadja! Great work and thousands thanks for the dedication.
I start a little proud now!
Hugs:)

Nadja said...

Thank you very much!
You deserve more honour than I can ever give. :-)
You have all the reason to be proud!
This photograph feels like a copy of one of yours.
I can only thank you for being so inspiring!
Thank you dear Ivo!
A warm hug back! X
(I am happy you are not angry for this picture...
Stealing your idea's...) "-)

Oh! I forgot:
I have to thank you for bringing Patti Smith back to my mind!
It was years ago since I heard her music.
But first times I visited your blog I saw the link to her music!
Thank you so much for that too!
I always have admired her, so much!
And each time, even now still, that I hear her voice, she rips my soul.
In a good way! :-)
Thank you!

There is no way to be angry about this, dear Nadia. On the contrary:)

And Patti Smith may not be the greatest singer but she always fills me with a strong power. I love listening her concert in clubs in the late 70's while working...

Nadja said...

Don't say anything wrong about her singing!
I think she sings fantastic! :-)
She gets me going everytime too.
Overwhelming voice... Full with power, yes.

"...in clubs in the late 70's
while working... "
That sounds like a great job. "-)

I can not say anything bad about Ms. Smith because - you know - I just love her and and her voice too (loud as traffic noise when scraping one another automobile bumpers, horn as loud and rude whooped ... but at the same time a quiet, gentle and remote seem all that is heard through an open window of a room in an endless afternoon:)

Nadja said...

Oh oke, I got it now...
Her 'concerts in clubs'.
Forgive me.
The English together with my 'distracted mind'
Well, It does not always fall right into place.
I look forward to a future where we all speak the same language.
Understanding eachother can be difficult enough, even when having the same language. :-)
I also look forward to a future where I am smarter.
But I'm afraid the language- thing will happen sooner. :-)
I'm sorry.

Nadja said...

You see, I even miss your comment...

But oke, you are forgiven!
Just because I love your discription of her voice!
You are a funny man too, it seems.
:-))

Nadia my English is really terrible and I do not know how to express half of what I think. My apologies!

Nadja said...

Your English is not the problem Ivo!
I assure you.
I understand it perfectly.
Only, not always immediatly.
I have the problem in Dutch sometimes also!
Really. So do not worry.
And be prepared, for my mistakes!
Mostly, sooner or later I will understand. :-))

иво рафаилов said...

But I think I can easily tell you "Thanks" for the wonderful photography and "Thanks" for dedication that makes me very happy and "Thanks" for pleasant conversation about Ms. Smith too... :)

Nadja said...

I want to return all that to YOU!
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks!
Your blog opened another
photography- world to me!
Another dimension...
And it gave me even more confidence to do what I like with my photographs!
Thanks again! :-)
