It's just an illusion

'Do you realise
That you have the most beautiful face?
Do you realise
We're floating in space?
Do you realise
That happiness makes you cry?
Do you realise
That everyone you know some day will die?

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes
Let them know you realise
That life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realise the sun don't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

-- Dedicated to my mum. I hope you're in a better place now.

This photo is part of a series I took on (actually, slightly away from) the shores of Lake Alexandrina, about a ninety-minute drive from my place here in South Australia. As with the rest, I used a variety of filters and gum boots (for me feet) to get what you see here. No seals or polar bears were harmed during this photo shoot. However, there was plenty of caffeine that never saw the light of day again.

Help yourself to the blue cheese, but stay away from the green one.
