On a day that promised a good start Mark is seen heading towards Glen Ceitlein and ultimately a couple of munros down Glen Etive. The weather would certainly be changeable and a fair amount of snow was to be found higher up.

Finishing Zaamurets inspired a brief WW1 phase and I decided to rebuild my favorite tank of the era, the British-American Mark VIII/Liberty Tank/International. I aimed for a clean look, but it was a pain to shape together regardless.

“We have made our mark on the world, but we have really done nothing that the trees and creeping plants, ice and erosion, cannot remove in a fairly short time.”

It was the jacket that first caught my eye.
I was relaxing with some friends at the Dead Mule Club, unwinding after a long week, and enjoying the spring evening sun with a nice amber ale in front of me. Out onto the deck walks Mark Smith, instantly eye catching with his faded tuxedo jacket and relaxed gait, and I say to my friends, “I’ve got to get a portrait of this guy!”
It was actually a funny coincidence that this particular evening was the first time he’d worn the jacket in about 8 years, and I just happened to be there to capture it!
Mark is 59, and hails from Birkenhead in the northwest of England. He’s laughing at me here because of my string of erroneous guesses as to where he’s from- I can’t place his accent. He’s now living in Carrboro.
If you chat with Mark for awhile, you might find out some interesting things, and you can tell he’s got stories for you. Be sure to ask him about seeing Jimi Hendrix live, or the Beatles for that matter, about how the music scene was back home. Ask him to recommend you some good cyberpunk or sci-fi literature, or what “Ferry Cross the Mersey” is all about, how to grow organic tomatoes. Get him to tell you about how he ended a “which channel to watch” dispute with a pair of garden shears.
What he probably won’t tell you are the things about himself that you might divine from his stories- that Mark is a fundamentally fearless person, adventurous, courageous, and a lover of truth. After all, he has moved to another continent and set up a home, raised kids here, and at age 59 is looking to leave behind a career as a carpenter to go into silk screening!
I saw Mark again yesterday, and he was wearing the wine red twin to his other tux jacket. He’d also cut off all his hair, so apparently I captured quite a unique moment indeed. So if you’re ever at the Dead Mule, just listen out for a deep joyful laugh, or look out for a guy with a twinkle in his eye, trouble in a tux- and you just might get to meet Mark.
This is the caterpillar of the Question Mark butterfly (Polygonia interrogationis). There is a tiny mark on the underside of the butterfly's wing that gives it the unusual name. I photographed this spiky creature at the Butterfly Haven in Pingree, Idaho.
"This cave is cool! Should we take selfies with the bones?"
Chuck: "Um, look behind you! Let's get out of here!"
"Tomábamos morfina, diamorfina, ciclocina, codeína, temazepán, nitrazepan, fenobarbital, amital sódico, dextropropoxifeno, metadona, analbufina, pecinina, pentazocina, buprenorfina, dextromoramida, clorometiazol... las calles rebosan drogas que puedes tomar para combatir la infelicidad... y nosotros las tomábamos todas. ¡Joder, nos habríamos inyectado vitamina C si hubiera sido ilegal!"
Mark Haven, a friend and a photographer, has died. He was a charming and talented man, and I will miss him. He taught photography at Rochester Institute of Technology for 25 years, and was a founding member of Soho Photo, the city’s oldest cooperative photo gallery.
Bio: "Dropped out of Law School to become photographer in mid 60's. Studied with Diane Arbus 1971 and Garry Winogrand 1970."
Did you know that a large percentage of us don't know or associate with our neighbors? I have seen Mark in passing several times and have always exchanged a friendly wave or said a quick greeting. The crazy thing is we have lived across from each other for three years and I never took the time to get to know him until recently.
