Grand Flickr Group Showcase of 2016 – TheAppWhisperer – Mobile Photography and Art
I had intended to publish our 2016 Grand Flickr Group Showcase of Mobile Photography and Art on Christmas Day this year. I had prepared most of it ahead of time and was relatively well organised to go live on 25 December. However, events took a turn for the worse and as I awoke after a thoroughly turbulent night on the morning of 24 December, I picked up my phone and saw a Facebook message coming through from a friend expressing how sorry she was for the loss of Carolyn Hall Young a few hours before. For a few moments, I thought I was still in the midst of the wretched…

Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 26 June 2016
“Never say you know the last word about any human heart”, a quotation by Henry James from the rich tapestry of a book I am currently reading, Any Human Heart by William Boyd. Art links all around us and we need to be able to tie it altogether, to make it whole. Human expression within this weeks mobile photography and art Flickr Group Showcase, speaks to us. Worldly wise, yet perilously frail, many of these images demonstrate the agony and ecstasy of love and life lived. This weeks showcase is a wholly humane romance and a worthy treat for all of us. Enjoy! If you would like your work to…

Human happiness as many writers will tell you is a mix of the rough and the smooth, the aches and the pains as well as the joys of life. Happiness is neither the journey nor the destination, it is simply something we achieve more often than not when when we travel the right way. The images that you will be drawn to and the music that flows through this weeks mobile photography and art Flickr Group showcase have a sense of quiet wisdom all of their own. It represents a marvellous synthesis of good sense and talent. Enjoy! If you would like your work to be considered for entry into…

Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 10 April 2016
My towering vision for mobile photography and art is to create an anaesthetising liberating brand of photography that is depicted graphically throughout the world, one where the artists themselves are free to explore their most extreme desires, secure within the social structure that we constantly nurture here at TheAppWhisperer. This weeks mobile photography and art group showcase is beautifully crafted and finely snug. Carolyn Hall Young, an utterly talented and charismatic artist takes the leading image this week, with none other a portrait of myself. It’s a fine achievement, Hall Young takes huge pride in her art and the climax for this showcase is so overwhelming – so magnificent. This…

Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 27 March 2016
Lately, I have been thinking about love, what it means, how we must face our fears in order to enjoy it and the costs of not doing so. Psychologists tell us that love doesn’t have to be complicated and yet, it is. The quote below, I think sums it up very well. “Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it…

Mobile Photography & Art Flickr Group Showcase – 6 March 2016
“If you are making art”, says a character in a novel by Peter Carey that I am reading, “the labour never ends, no peace, no Sabbath, just eternal churning and cursing and worrying and fretting”. This weeks mobile photography and art flickr group showcase is somewhat on a par with the above quote and also, at least for me, with the art of making love. There’s grand passion, enchantment, trust, divinity and persistence. As this stunning art, appears on your screen, make space in your heart and mind to feel the power of the incredible creativity. This is after all, a real love story. Enjoy! If you would like your…
