I'm a little shy, and it's a big place. Still trying to find my way around here. Always happy to meet new friends!

What are the Shades of Flame?
Ever hear of, "negative space"?
In art: the space around and between the subject(s), imperceptibly defining.
In photography: an image's "negative," wherein lights become darks and the shades are revealed.
In music: space between notes or phrases giving them life and character.
In life: subtle, background things; unnoticed around what we perceive as life, but that give it meaning and fluidity.
In darkness we perceive light; in silence, sounds; in the pause, living.
The shades make the flames come alive, which is where they are most beautiful. The magic happens in the shades.
And me?
A bit eclectic. A bit random. A little of a lot of things. I often see things a bit differently. I guess we'll see, hmm?
