the edges

mysteriously, wonderfully, 

i bid farewell to what goes, 

i greet what comes; 

for what comes cannot be denied, 

and what goes cannot be detained.

--chuang-tzu

not all there

hugging you, he said, 

is like hugging a hologram.

not all there.

she blinked,

and disappeared.

ghosts

all our efforts are temporary. they borrow from preexisting forces, ride the current of natural events, and disappear according to the dictates of the situation. it is best to realize the transitory nature of things and work with it. understanding the world's ephemeral nature can be the biggest advantage of all.

RIP, captain

the sun

it's been slightly less than a year since i picked up my camera and began using it in a more intentional, intelligent way. the sun coming through my kitchen window is approaching the same angle, the same flowers are showing up in stores.
pretty much nothing else is the same.

i'm currently sans inspiration, so i've been visiting the past. that's where these shots come from.
i'm looking to see what i was seeing, or not seeing, then. maybe i can see what i'm seeing, or not seeing, now.
