I'm intensely curious about life. For me, every moment of every day of my life has been about solving the mystery placed in front of me. Sometimes the story has a happy ending, sometimes the story is tragic and heartbreaking. Sometimes I smile, sometimes I cry. So, flickr is about looking deeply into an image, reading and endeavouring to understand the story, then intuitively feeling what was happening in the exact moment of creation. I can't explain why it's so important for me to answer these questions; my mind is always thinking and my heart is always feeling, and together they propel me forward. 💋

Welcome to my Flickr! These are my thoughts, words, and images. I hope you find some enjoyment here. Please comment on anything - my writings, my photos, the vibe, a connection you feel - feedback is always appreciated. You may notice that my writing and photos deviate toward the dark end of the spectrum, it’s my cynical side.

Many of us have experienced traumas - some major, some minor, some physical, some emotional - that have left us scarred and a bit broken. These traumas are the source of my creativity; some days words and images pour out of me like a tap turned left to full and can’t be stopped. When in the midst of a deluge, I remember “this too shall pass”… and, the next day may be all Perrier Jouet 'n butterflies. So, if you can acquiesce to the ebb and flow of my unconventional tide 🌊 Join me.

Some would say she was brutally taken, others might assert she was merely retrieved. In the final analysis it doesn’t matter… another Azure, another time. The Azure I knew and loved will never return.
