I'm sure someone has said it before but the harsh beauty of jagged mountain ranges, deep forests, and vast oceans have a magnetism like few other things in life. I try to document it sometimes, but I feel like I still can't do it justice. I don't let it stop me though.
Beautiful photos! OK btw about the waterfalls behind my family home .. it was as big as your waterfalls but it was big enough to climb up and slide down into a swimming hole. Across the road was fields and woods with a creek that we fished in. The field & creek had all kinds of critters! lol Use to trap(showing my age here! lol) muskrats and such but gave that up when I saw how the critters would suffer sometimes! Back in those days no digital camera! lol
Love your photos and blogs ..
keep on rolln', ~Rob
Your messages today have made me feel so lucky, I got overcome actually haha now I am the embarrassing one. I ned to write back to your email too but I've been up way too late so I better do it tomorrow. I love your idea though, think I already said that on some other form of communication though. Ha this is getting ridiculous!
You would really love the Bachelard text, it was not easy to read so I can imagine it would be too difficult for most at school age. I think that because it's translated from the French (I find they often write in a very elaborate way anyway), as well as it being a philosophical text with it's own language as a discipline, not to mention the fact that it contains lots of complex ideas makes it pretty tricky. It took me a long time to read and I'm normally quite a fast reader but it was so worth it.
The museum is indeed very different now, it's been completely refurbished, it would be really great to show you around. Even though I have a kind of weird feeling about the place now that I'm behind the scenes, it's still a place of wonderful things and the building it really great. I would love to see all your museums too. I actually have a slight phobia that I wont be able to see any museum in the same way now that I work in one, I will discover this week on my trip I guess! I suppose I'll certainly be wondering about the staff and if they feel the same as me! Speak soon anyway xxx
not sure if you check here, anyway, cherry, my love. i was showing my fiance (FIANCE!!!) some of your photography and he was like, "we should fly her out to shoot our wedding. she's better than anyone i've ever seen." and i was like hah, yeah, i know, right? and he was like "no. we should. i'm serious."
Edit: This turned out to be a kind of love letter to SuicideGirls and all of the friends and adventures I've made over the last nine years....
I was going to make my next entry about my time in Paris, but after the surprise of my wonderful friends' AnnaLee and GoGo's set (The Wolf Caught The Bird) popping up on the front... Read More
