Many accuse me of indifference and passivity when I refuse to go into hiding; they say that I have given up. They say everyone who can, must try to stay out of their clutches, it’s our bounden duty to try. But that argument is specious. For while everyone tries to save himself, vast numbers are nevertheless disappearing. And the funny thing is, I don’t feel I’m in their clutches anyway, whether I stay or am sent away. I find all that talk so cliché-ridden and naive, and can’t go along with it anymore. I don’t feel in anybody’s clutches … They may well succeed in breaking me physically, but no more than that. I may face cruelty and deprivation the likes of which I cannot imagine in even my wildest fantasies. Yet all this is as nothing to the immeasurable expanse of my faith in God and my inner receptiveness. I shall always be able to stand on my own two feet even when they are planted on the hardest soil of the harshest reality. And my acceptance is not indifference or helplessness. I feel deep moral indignation at a regime that treats human beings in such a way. But events have become too overwhelming and too demonic to be stemmed with personal resentment and bitterness. These responses strike me as being utterly childish and unequal to the “fateful” course of events. (ET 2002, 487)

I know that many North American car enthousiast think that Germany is the walhalla of fast driving, but above you'll see reality. Baustelle after Baustelle with speed restrictions. On my way back to Holland from the Black Forest I had the pleasure of a 30 kilometer traffic jam, but okay, it was Friday rushhour. The picture above is taken between Bingen and Karlsruhe, en route to Baden-Baden. And who can say that the Peugeot 308 CC is a pretty car?

(Fait partie de la série “Réalités cadrées”, une exploration des perceptions, des distances et de la tension silencieuse entre regardeur et regardé.)
Perched on cosmic anvil, flesh against frost,
He forges existence from chaos lost.
Mountains bow, stars hang on his breath,
This naked god, master of life and death.
Aurora bends to his will, a verdant crown,
Reality shivers, awaiting his noun.
From meditation's depth, worlds unfurl,
In his mind's eye, galaxies swirl.
Muscles tense with power unbound,
Shaping destinies without a sound.
Each thought a universe, each breath a law,
Creation trembles in silent awe.
In this frozen throne, he sits supreme,
Weaving the fabric of all that seems.
Master of matter, sculptor of space,
He manifests worlds with infinite grace.
Tomorrow is Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day! Yay. You know I'll be out there with one pinhole camera or another.... or several.
Anyway, a passing shot I made while wandering the Reed College campus a while back. I really love how the upper pinhole on the Reality So Subtle 6x6 can distort perspective just so. I daresay I like using this camera's upper pinhole more than I like using the centered pinhole.
