Colors of Macau



The recent trip to Macau is a "voyage of discovery" . I discovered the colors of crystals. Chihuly was a focus. But all photographers know that at times, the surrounding background may be just as interesting. So I allowed my camera to capture whatever took its fancy in that regard..

P5090569
One which changes colors



How rich its colors



I like the blue, not too sharp, nor too dull


A fish in green



Ah, another fish diving down in the air!



shades of green!



The tiny mouth from which everything all started?



leaves with light reflected from the surrounding crystals


World within a world?



Two doors!



crystal jellyfish?



Jack and the bean stalk: crystal version!



swarming fishes over parapets, pillars and arches



Fishes roaming in waterless water and kelps?



fishes across giant kelps


Corals of crystals



The palace of Poseidon?



Fishes in a sea of crystals?




Fishes at the mouth of a shark?



crystals amidst fish or fish amidst crystals?


c
rystals or bubbles in the water?



fish amidst trees?



Fish swimming through windows?




This is where they all came from



Hall of Peacock in blue and purple



now in red blue and purple


snakes of blue in blue and purple


snakes of blue in green


snakes of blue in purple

snakes of blue in green

    [無明十郎回覆05/15/2013 11:08:15]對,是腦中的主觀幻想。
    [版主回覆05/15/2013 08:08:02]What is color, just the "effect" "created" by our brain based on certain stimuli in the form of "waves" of energy called "photons" vibrating at certain frequencies received by the rod and cone cells in our eye and transmitted to certain other cells in our brain along certain other neuron cells in our optic nerve. In that sense, color is not a "substance", nor "matter" as traditionally understood, just certain "subjective illusions" created internally within our brain which lasts just for longer or shorter periods of time and then vanishes or disappears forever from the universe. So is our "self" whose interests (money, wealth, power, status, reputation, instinctual needs for food, sex, sensory stimulation etc) we do so much to promote, to protect and to defend against "the others" , including other individuals, , groups, and the "physical world"..

  2. 空即是色.
    [版主回覆05/15/2013 08:15:54]Absolutely, according to Buddha. But to the great Buddha, 色 is not just confined to color but includes all kinds of "appearances" we experience in the material world ie. stimuli received by our eyes, ear, tongue, skin and in a deeper sense, includes also the "perceptions" produced inside our own brain.

  13. Looks commercial but the installation is magnificent. Why don't we have something here!?
    [版主回覆05/27/2013 10:14:29]That's a good question which should be directed at our architects and interior designers!
