Welcome to Qurator's Mischievous Mondays!


This will be a weekly competition that we will be hosting every Monday. We want to see a little more engagement and fun when it comes to some of our competitions so this will be a simpler and shorter competition. Easy to enter, but maybe not so easy to win. ;) This competition will be similar to the Monday Missions we had a long time ago, but instead of writing posts to enter we will now consider only the comments and answers on this blog as your entry to win.


Why Mischievous?

We all could use a little fun in our lives. We would even say that we deserve it, let loose a little and have a go at making everyone laugh or think a little, even if it is a little over the top or pure silliness. Go all out and let your creative juices flow.

This week's theme : Sounds of Silence

Capture or depict the essence of silence, exploring its visual or narrative presence and the emotions it evokes. We basically want to show a picture that we can't even imagine hearing. The most quiet place you can think of.

This picture shows the white rann( salt desert) in Gujarat from the hill of kala dungar. I feel complete silence here. This salt desert extends far away, we cannot reach its corner easily. Where nothing can be seen far away, then completely silence is visible. This place depicts the essence of silence.

Nature is one of the best gift a man can ever imagine. . And one of the essence of silence from nature are the view points probably in high range areas.

View points- they are the besr place where one can attain peace in silence.

The very presence of silence makes our mind work, beyond imagination. Here, one gets an opportunity to explore his inner self, in other words, to the maximum. You an cry out aloud and can even, remove your frustration by screaming at rhe top of your voice, as the surroundings are otherwise calm

Thankyou so much @qurator

This is easy!

They exist in thousands, they are always in The dark corners of offices, in closed and forgortennrooms.

Brought to life with the aid of nature protecting us right from conception to birth, we will still be put into nature to be one with it when the time comes.

Peace and quietness is needed for deep thinking, meditation and ultimate focus.

The only place where I find this peace and silence is with nature.

Anytime I feel down, feel I need to focus, or feel I need to solve a problem, I just take my seat, go into nature and sit on it's quite surface. This is the best feeling there is. No machines to disturb, no person to speak to my ears, no phone to disturb your peace. Nothing, just you, yourself and nature.

The silence gotten from nature is ultimately

Pictures belong to me and was captured by me using my techno spark 4 mobile phone

Silencios imperceptible

Unos ojos grandes, bellos sin tener la luz que les permitan ver.

Solo el llanto a flor de piel, esperando ser escuchado.

Lágrimas que intentas cubrir para que no se note que has llorado.

Cuando estás allí presente pero eres invisible para todos.

Apparently I missed last week's challenge, but let's go for this week:

Coincidence or not but I am reading this post at nearly 3am while laying in bed, all lights already out. The only thing I hear is my stomach / body making some sounds. Furthermore it's completely dark and silent.

Congratulations to the winners

The wait for silence.
For me, silence comes after 6pm when the beach starts to empty.

It is no longer too hot, there is a pleasant breeze and the waves crashing on the shore can be heard louder.

This is the best time to catch the silence and regain my inner calm.

Living in central Italy a few kilometres from the sea, winter is short and not too cold, at this time in February we have an anticipation of spring with 18/20 degrees for a few weeks, then it will drop a little but in the meantime we can enjoy the warmth.
The photo is mine, on the beach at Torvaianica, on the Latium coast, in summer.

One of the quietest places I have visited has been the cemetery of the whale in the town of Castro Urdiales.

It is a cemetery with a peculiar beauty for many of its pantheons where the silence was absolute.

I think I only met one cat in my tour of the cemetery and the only sound was a light breeze.

Regards.
