Order in Chaos
Between the heavy knots on the mooring ring and the neatly coiled rope on the pier lies a true maritime aesthetic. Port details that often escape notice, yet tell a subtle story of order, safety, and seamanship.
Red u kaosu
Između grubih čvorova na vezu i uredno složenog konopa na mulu krije se prava mala morska estetika. Detalji iz luke koji često promaknu prolaznicima, a pričaju priču o redu, sigurnosti i trudu mornara.
Order: Lepidoptera
Family: Nymphalidae
Subfamily: Heliconiinae
Genus species: Agraulis vanillae
Gulf fritillaries are medium-sized butterflies with elongated forewings. Their wingspan extends between 65 and 95 millimeters long. The surface of the upper wing is bright orange with black markings. The undersides of the wings are brown with a red blush color near the base. In the forewing cell, three black-rimmed white spots are visible on the top and underside. Gulf fritillaries have a black “comma“ on their hindwing with white oblong shapes, one of which is broken. Their bodies are long, slender and orange with white stripes. They have orange eyes, white freckles on their head and a white jaw extending up. Females are larger, darker and have more extensive markings than their male counterparts.
Gulf fritillary butterflies live in the extreme southern United States. Outside of the U.S., they are a broad-ranging species, found throughout Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and into South America.
They begin their journey by migrating northward from Texas and Florida to more northern parts of the southeastern U.S. such as North Carolina and Alabama for temporary breeding grounds. Gulf fritillaries occasionally venture into the Central U.S, however they cannot survive in temperatures below 21 degrees Fahrenheit. In late summer and early fall, peninsular Florida sees huge numbers of these butterflies return. Despite the migration of many, adult Gulf fritillaries can be found in southern Florida throughout the year.
Gulf fritillaries enjoy a variety of habitat including sunny roadsides, disturbed areas, edges, fields, pastures, woodlands, second-growth semitropical forests and urban areas like parks and yards. You may even find them blithely floating around your butterfly garden.

Today, the terrestrial order, the order of the earth, is coming to an end. It is being succeeded by the digital order. Heidegger was the last thinker of the terrestrial order. Death and pain do not belong to the digital order. They represent disturbances. Mourning and longing are also suspicious. The pain of the nearness of distance is alien to the digital order. Distance is inscribed into nearness. The digital order transforms nearness into the absence of distance, so that it is no longer painful. Under the compulsion of availability, everything is rendered accessible and consumable. The digital habitus is: everything must be available at once. The telos of the digital order is total availability. This order lacks the 'slowness of the hesitant shyness in the face of what cannot be done'.
- Byung-Chul Han, The Ontology of Pain
On that day I went up the mountain in the afternoon to photograph in the low light of dusk.
I met this stream of hikers descending, in groups but isolated at the same time.
It's a inusual photo and remains years later, one of my prefer winter photos, it could resemble the cover of a good book.
In ordine sparso
In quel giorno salii in montagna nel pomeriggio, per fotografare con la luce bassa del crepuscolo.
Incontrai così questo flusso di escursionisti che scendevano, in gruppo ma isolati allo stesso tempo.
E' una foto inusuale e rimane a distanza di anni, una delle mie foto preferite con la neve, potrebbe assomigliare alla copertina di un bel libro.

Kensington Metropark, Livingston County, Michigan.
I had a dead deer in the ditch along the road. I hooked up a rope to it and drug it back into the woods with my tractor. The next day the vultures took care of it, but they do have a pecking order and these two were waiting their turn. Turkey Vulture in the front and a Black Vulture in the back. My backyard. Central Bucks, PA.
In order to know these hills, I ought to set foot upon their earth in quietness, perhaps. At least that seemed something painfully necessary at the time. Instead I go through in the sealed train, looking out from behind glass. I am cut off entirely from the hills and they are fairly abstract. What do I know of them, or they of me? There is no necessity for me to know them, or for them to know me. If I am to know those hills, if their rock faces are to be more than blanks, perhaps I have to climb them, be lost in their woods. However, it is a terrible thing to ride encased in the glass, sterile, train asking the hills who they are, and being cut off from any real answer in a sealed tube of scientifically cleaned and heated air, not the same air as fills the bitter, hostile woods outside. When the hills go to answer, they are defeated; so is the questioner. The answer can’t get through the glass.

The ancient legend says that in order to enter the Crystal Kingdom, you must say the password: "Look past your thoughts so you may drink the pure nectar of this moment." Then, you will hear a voice saying: "I am EL MelAdRah, welcome to my Crystal Kingdom. You may enter."

“Recall the moment that recalls you,” the Core sang, its voice a melody braided from collapsing epochs. “It is older than stars, and younger than your next breath.”
The harmonics deepened.
“All time bends toward you. All time breaks because of you. All time begins again through you.
You will end what cannot end. You will begin what cannot begin. You will stand where time kneels.”
“I don’t understand,” Adrienne whispered. “Stop speaking in riddles. Just tell me what I’m supposed to do.”
The Core answered on a soft tone, “Stand upon the Ovum Stone… and open your mind.”
Adrienne looked down. At her feet rested an egg-shaped stone, smooth, pale, impossibly ancient — a relic of the first moment, humming with energy.
She stepped onto its center.
The floating rings around the Core shifted, descending through her body like luminous vertebrae. They passed into the ground beneath her. Her muscles loosened; her weight dissolved. She hovered above the stone, suspended in a cradle of unseen force.
Unfamiliar thoughts surged through her — not memories, but possibilities. Her arms rose on instinct. Lightning crackled around the Core, spiraling upward like a storm learning to speak.
Symbols flashed before her eyes, too fast to grasp, too old to name.
The voice whispered, “Stand before the sum of all moments. Every beginning is still beginning. Every ending has already ended. Every possibility exists in superposition.”
Adrienne didn’t know how she knew — but she knew. She was the conduit. She was the interface. She was the one who could command the Core.
“Time has now ceased,” the voice murmured.
All machinery froze. The ground shuddered once. Silence swallowed everything.
Adrienne hung suspended — not breathing, not feeling, only existing. Terror flooded her.
“What have I done…”
Moments — or eternities — passed.
Then the Core spoke again, no longer melodic, but absolute, “Begin the sequencing of moments.”
Conduits erupted with blue white chronal fire. Gears slowly began to rotate, aligning constellations of runes that had not been seen since the universe was young. Pendulums resumed their swing, counting centuries, correcting drift, stitching time back together.
A haze lifted from her. Breath returned. She collapsed to her knees, trembling, exhausted.
“Reset complete,” the Core intoned.
A pause. Then, almost gently, “Would you like me to foretell your future?”

In an ever-shifting world a new order shall rise. The economy shall thrive and the people's work and routine shall not be compromised. Ruling with an iron fist, our allies will know mutual cooperation and our enemies shall know true fear in the face of mighty firepower and resolve. We shall suffer no fools, and put our country's needs before any international organizations, for that is true power and the way to prosper without the world on our shoulders (keep it goin' US & Japan you both are in better positions then you were 4 years ago)
This is a comical shot, this is definitely what Japan's highest legislative council is like and I will not be convinced otherwise. It looks like it shouldn't exist, but it does. And believe it or not, I finally have something to talk about concerning Fushimi Inari for the first time in a long while. There's a pathway out of the mountain and down the north side to the entrance. There aren't many toriis down this path but there was a handful of more unique subjects to shoot, this being one of the better examples. There was an overhang casting a shadow over the back rows. It kinda looks like a 70s fantasy production set.
Thankfully, the lower highlights made it a lot easier to edit the subjects which did have the light it needed. After giving nearly every fox (or cat I'm not sure) a different level of clarity I drained the textures on the walls in the back and gave the torii more light but not enough to make it stand out. For how silly the concept of this shot is, it surprisingly works really well and I don't know why, it's got all the components of a more professional shot.
CSX D789 passes through Harpers Ferry's Lower Town across the 1850's wooden trestle built by the Winchester and Potomac Railroad. The train is taking 105 cars of wheat destined for Winchester, VA just after midnight on March 26, 2017. The structure was necessary to avoid the occasional high waters that rage through the confluence of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers. It was shortened at it's east end to rebuild the right of way in order to connect with the 1894 B&O bridge by using fill and a single deck bridge.
Evening sets in, and the outbound North Pole Express gets a clear signal south to Mason, OH. Conductor Gawin hoops some trainorders to engineer Wells at the station in Lebanon before departing into the night.
The Lebanon, Mason & Monroe ran their last North Pole Express for the season on December 20. As a treat for the railfans visiting, they paired the railroad's 2 GP30's for the day's excursions. Some staged shots of Will hooping orders along the line were done as well. This would be his last day working for the CRC before moving on to another railroad, so all of us had some fun while we could.
Best of luck in your future endeavors, Will!
