You will rock you

Buddy’s not spry, make a big gneiss
Layin’ on the ground – gonna be a big crag some day
You got mud on your face
Like diabase
Melt-crystallizin’ all over the place
Thinkin’

You will, you will, rock you
You will, you will, rock you

Buddy you’re a young stone, hard stone
Standin’ in the earth – towerin’ o’er the world some day
You got mud on your face
Anorthoclase
Lattice substitution in matrix-space

You will, you will, rock you
You will, you will, rock you

Buddy you’re an built-in mountain
Pleadin’ erosion won’t make you into grit some day
You got mud on your face
With periclase
Metamorphosin’ right there in place

You will, you will, rock you
You will, you will, rock you

You will, you will, rock you
You will, you will, rock you

“Bokeh” comes from the Japanese word ボケ meaning “blur” or “haze” and refers to the aesthetic quality of the out-of-focus parts of a photograph. Bokeh is determined both by the type of aperture in a lens (number and shape of blades) and by the optical quality of the lenses in use. Some lenses allow you greater control over this aspect of photography by using multiple apertures in a single optical pathway. Those people using third party lenses on modern mirrorless cameras can purchase additional aperture modules to place between the lens and the camera body to reproduce this control, while almost all lenses can use a shaped blackout filter on the front lens element to control the overall shape of the bokeh artifacts.

However, heron don’t care about any of this. Heron just wants a fish.
