The leaves are falling, falling as if from far up,
as if orchards were dying high in space.
Each leaf falls as if it were motioning "no."
And tonight the heavy earth is falling
away from all other stars in the loneliness.
We're all falling. This hand here is falling.
And look at the other one. It's in them all.
And yet there is Someone, whose hands
infinitely calm, holding up all this falling.
Rainer Maria Rilke, Autumn

We can lick gravity, but sometimes the paperwork is overwhelming.
Wernher von Braun

Benedictus, 2CELLOS

This is really cool, you have a terrific artist's eye for creating the 3d effect. I love the colors too, it all works. Also it reminds me of the clock level in the mario Nintendo 64 game from the 90's.Remember when he jumps into the elevator and moves up to the top? :)

Marvelous 3D, John, that plays tricks with the eyes and perception...not certain if things are falling or going up due to the loss of gravity...I also love your chosen passages and beautiful accompanying music...fabulous all-round composition.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
