On Wednesday, I visited the 9/11 Memorial. Being there felt so sad, so weird, so unable to be put into words. It's so hard to describe the feeling as you stand in front of the waterfalls in the tower footprints. Standing in front of them for the first time took my breath away and gave me goosebumps.
I watched many of those who lost someone make a rubbing of that person's name on a strip of paper using crayons. I think for many, this is so very important. It's the first *thing* that they've been able to hold and take with them, and sort of connect them to what happened that day. It's an entire lifetime of memories of that person etched in letters. Something that they can keep forever.

Annie got this today in the mail, and is going to fix it so that her hair is more distinguishable from the background. She really is this blond, believe me!
i talked with kevin (stranger #9) for so long that i could write a book about him. kevin is originally from connecticut but has been all over the world. he has lived in new york, baltimore, california, thailand, and germany. he is back in baltimore (fells point) staying in a friend's row house for free.
kevin is a sculptor but has never considered that his career. he sculpts human figures using a variety of materials including animal skulls. he finishes each sculpture with bronze. kevin has sold some of his art work but usually gives them to friends or trades them for things that he needs.
kevin spent most of his adult years working at harbors, and later he worked at a facility for juvenile delinquents. his first wife was a well known artist in california and she was a spokesperson for the national organization for women. he didn't speak of any other relationships but did tell me that he has two sons. his first son is a teacher at an art school in baltimore and his youngest is a hippie in brooklyn.
i developed a closer relationship with kevin than my previous strangers. he invited me in his home to see his sculptures and we sat out on the stoop looking at pictures of his trips to thailand. it was wonderful listening to his stories. i hope to meet him again:)

So long ago
Was it in a dream, was it just a dream?
I know, yes I know
Seemed so very real, it seemed so real to me
Kobe, Japan.
Just for the hell of it, I picked up yet another Jupiter 9 from an Ebay seller in the Ukraine. These Soviet-era lenses can be dated by their serial number. This was was manufactured before I was born (serial # 58xxxxxx) and there is something special about shooting with a lens from that pre-JFK era.
It was accompanied by its standard "bakelite" case. This baby will join my existing black Jupiter 9 from 1977-era.
The Jupiter 9 is a challenging lens to use ... at f/2 (the only place to use it), depth of field is very narrow, and contract is reduced as compared to a modern lens. But the sharpness is there.
A click in Photoshop and the contrast returns, but that is not what you really want for portraits (which is what this lens was designed for). My muse suggested that I do a shoot of Russian models in Thailand with this Soviet lens, so that is my project for November.
Today is dress-like-a-librarian day!
I have worked from 8 am to 9 pm. I'm watching SNL with Dana Carvey and going to bed. Good-bye!
