Men Don't Follow. They LEAD.
Queen Of My Heart. At Wonderland
archives 2011
By the way, the premiere of the Detroit documentary "Burn" was awesome. If it happens to make it to your town, I hope you check it out and support the kickstarter for the film. Hats off to the filmmakers for a great piece.
I've had a documentary brewing in my mind for really long time. It takes a lot of dedication and work to put one together. I have some obstacles, but I think it is an attainable goal. The subject matter is a secret for now because I think my idea is kind of a good one. I woke up this morning and overcaffinated myself, so now I'm bounding with ideas I can't contain. If someone does this movie before me I will be kicking myself. Oh, but the obstacles I have before me are tough.... ack, what to do what to do.
1000 pictures. Woo!
Thanks to everyone whose comments and suggestions have encouraged me to continue my love of photography. It's been an awesome ride, and I hope that every picture I have taken you have liked, and is better than the last. Which means this one is awesome :D

Making fun of those meaningless film titles of movies that usually get nominated for a bunch of awards but nobody watches. “A new film by master filmmaker Wannabe Veryarti, starring a very quirky actress and a hunky monosyllabic dude with a deeply mysterious mystery that will be revealed in interminable closeups of a single tear, not quite explaining dude’s inability to form sentences. Shot in the mandatory high contrast film noir style by academy award winning Italian cinematographer Ionlyshoota Monochroma in the mists and gloom of some oddly unpopulated European location.” I kid. Sometimes I even enjoy such films. Sometimes not.
A few weeks back I took a much needed break from work to travel out west, visit family in British Columbia and then meet up with some friends for hiking and photography in Zion NP. It was a really terrific trip and very re-energizing.
I had a couple of hours before a flight from Seattle so I stopped by Snoqualmie Falls on a very foggy day. The colder weather caused the falls to be surrounded in mist, to the point where autofocus would not work so I had to try to manually dial in the focus as best I could. I had hoped to get lower down along the river to shoot some fall foreground against the misty waterfall backdrop but the river access was closed so I was stuck with the overlook shot. At the time I honestly thought these shots wouldn’t amount to much as there was just too much water suspended in the air (pretty common for the Seattle/Vancouver area). However, with a bit of work in post I quite liked the abstract feel to this. This should be the first of a set of posts to come to break my recent drought on Flickr.
The ever present moisture in the Pacific Northwest makes for scenes and moods that are very rare or non-existent in the rest of the continent. I could really spend months traveling around Oregon, Washington and BC, and shooting their many incredible sights. And some day I intend to do this. For now, I’ll have to satisfy myself with small targeted doses.

French poet, playwright, novelist, designer, filmmaker, visual artist and critic Jean Cocteau (1889-1963) was one of the most multi-talented artists of the 20th century. He was one of the creatives of the surrealist, avant-garde, and Dadaist movements. He is best known for his novels 'Le Grand Écart' (1923), 'Le Livre blanc' (1928), and 'Les Enfants Terribles' (1929); the stage plays 'La Voix Humaine' (1930), 'La Machine Infernale' (1934), 'Les Parents terribles' (1938), and 'L'Aigle à deux têtes' (1946); and the films Le sang d'un poète/The Blood of a Poet (1930), La belle et la bête/Beauty and the Beast (1946), Les Parents Terribles (1948), Orphée/Orpheus (1950), and Le testament d'Orphée/Testament of Orpheus (1960). He collaborated with the "Russian Ballet" company of Sergei Diaghilev and was active in many art movements, but he always remained a poet at heart.
Jean Maurice Eugène Cocteau was born in 1889 in Maisons-Laffitte, Seine-et-Oise (now Yvelines), France. Cocteau was born into a middle-class family. He began writing at 10 and was a published poet by age 16. From 1908, he was a frequent guest in artistic circles. In 1911, he wrote the libretto for 'Le dieu bleu, a ballet by the Ballets Russes. In 1917 came 'Parade', an avant-garde ballet by Cocteau, for which Pablo Picasso, among others, designed the sets and costumes and Erik Satie composed the music. In Guillaume Apollinaire's programme booklet, to describe the ballet, the word surréaliste was used for the first time. the ballet was not a great success, but it did establish Cocteau's name in the avant-garde of Paris. In 1920, Cocteau began a relationship with the aspiring writer Raymond Radiguet, then aged 17. Cocteau was openly bisexual. After Radiguet released 'Le Diable au corps', a period of productivity followed for Cocteau. This stopped in 1923, when Radiguet died of typhoid fever. Cocteau became addicted to opium in the period that followed. In 1926, he published 'Le rappel à l'ordre', a book of essays describing the renewed interest in traditions in the post-World War I period. In 1929, Cocteau wrote his best-known work, Les Enfants terribles'.
Jean Cocteau's film debut Le sang d'un poète/The Blood of a Poet (1930) starring Enrique Rive, was a grand experiment in an effort to capture the poet's obsession with the struggle between the forces of life and death. Because of the October 1930 scandal around Luis Buñuel's L'âge d'or (1930) - another film financed by Le Vicomte de Noailles and Marie-Laure de Noailles, the Paris premiere of this film was delayed until January 1932. The film is the first part of Jean Cocteau's Orpheus Trilogy (1932-1960); a loosely connected telling and re-telling of the well-known Greek legend. His favourite actor was his protégé and lover Jean Marais, who starred in La belle et la bête/Beauty and the Beast (1946), L'aigle à deux têtes (1948) and Les parents terribles (1948). In Cocteau's most important film, Orphee/Orpheus (1950), Marais is a poet who becomes obsessed with a Princess, Death (Maria Casares). They fall in love. Orphee's wife, Eurydice (Marie Déa), is killed by the Princess' henchmen and Orphee goes after her into the Underworld. Although they have become dangerously entangled, the Princess sends Orphee back out of the Underworld, to carry on his life with Eurydice. Cocteau made about twelve films in his career, all rich with symbolism and surreal imagery. In Le testament d'Orphée/Testament of Orpheus. Cocteau himself played the poet Orpheus who looks back over his life and work, recalling his inspirations and obsessions. In 1955, he became a member of the Académie française and he was also awarded the French Legion of Honour. Jean Cocteau died at the age of 74. Cocteau's house in Milly-la-Forêt was bought by the government on the initiative of a committee that wants to keep his memory alive. It was inaugurated as a Cocteau museum in 2010.

Filmmaker at Work
When we finally got inside, it was nearly 2:00 p.m. I had not considered that it was spring break week and that all of the tourist attractions would be packed. We had been out for hours and the kids were a little frazzled but in good spirits. Anna was handling the little kids really well. Dominic was Mr. Filmmaker at the aquarium, filming for Daddy and Nana who couldn’t be there. It was a nice aquarium with a small inside area and some rides and attractions outside. We went ahead and paid for the all access pass which gave us entrance to the Shark Voyage and Stingray Reef plus the rides. My kids don’t like rides and Anna is afraid of sharks, but it wasn’t that much extra money so what the heck, right? Dominic got some great footage and created a montage of his clips using his phone (he is so tech savvy). He wouldn’t let me share that film here but I’ll keep working on him.
