I feel totally disconnected from these photographs I've been doing. Aside from the one of my feet in the bathtub from last week, I don't feel like I'm putting anything at all into my art. I want to take it to the next level, take photos with conviction and have them mean something to me and make writings to go along with them. Having trouble expressing myself since I know a lot of my family looks at my photo stream. Those of you that make risque and/or emotional work, how do you deal with not censoring yourself...how can we over the hurdle of judgment from people who may not appreciate or understand work we make?
got to do a little makeshift product photography for my dad was a good learning experience that is for sure

"'Something Good' is a house music song released by Utah Saints in 1992. It was first included as the lead song on a seven-track EP titled Something Good, then later included on the Utah Saints album. 'Something Good' is an aggressive house/trance track which very prominently contains a vocal sample from Kate Bush's 'Cloudbusting' (originally appearing on her 1985 album Hounds of Love). Issued as a single, the track hit number four in the UK Singles Chart as well as number seven on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart. The BBC used the song during its coverage of the Opening Ceremony of the Barcelona Olympic Games of 1992, and was also used for Carlton Television's pre-launch trailer.
In 2008, 'Something Good' was remixed and released as 'Something Good '08'. Bush's vocal sample was re-recorded by West End singer/actress Davina Perera and is still the focal point of the song and a new music video was filmed for the new version. It was released on CD on 17 March 2008. The remix entered the top 10 on downloads alone, and climbed to number eight upon physical release, their first top 20 hit in fifteen years." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Something_Good_(Utah_Saints_song)
During my 2+ hours of being by myself inside Disneyland Paris, I found myself spending some time in their hub area. And I suddenly thought to myself, wouldn't it be fun to take a picture similar to what I would normally take at either Disneyland or WDW but with something missing. Which in this case was the Partners Statue with Walt and Mickey. I spent quite a bit of time waiting for traffic to stop going thru the center of the hub but patience paid off and eventually people stopped taking selfies and i was able to take this. Tomorrow's picture will feature where the partners statue ended up...
I decided to try something different on my bed. I've had the same thing on my bed for 3 years, thought it was time to try something else.
Something Else
There's the lush grass again,
the white pines green and mysterious.
And the barn, too, in the distance,
fading red, the color of longing.
The afternoon light is gilding the hillside,
the clouds are moving together,
huge, incipient thoughts,
and you're swooning with desire
wanting the beautiful to lie down with you,
gold-leaf your fingertips and tongue,
green you with fragrance
though you don't know exactly
what you're after, whether it's beauty itself
or whatever lives inside it,
elusive, entire,
peripheral to your wanting—
shadow of wings
you catch obliquely
along the woods' edge,
river that you hear
without listening.

bad quality...yes.. i´m not in form.
i wanted to photograph this old mirror, i love it, whenever i go into
that room (i don´t do that very often) i atomatically turn my head and look
into its direction... i think it´s magic.
i don´t like that, but it was very sophisticated to take it and so i decided to upload it.
i had to cover everything that was reflected with white blankets (don´t worry
dad, i put everything away when i was done...)
it was to dark, i wanted to capture so many details in the room,
the wonderful old wooden floor and the door in the background...
Each year there's a "Leave Something Take Something" box where you can get rid of anything you can't sell. This year there were a lot of "donations" to pick through. There were a lot of spare body parts which made a number of people happy who were looking for spare feet and hands. And Tinnu gave me the pink felt jacket which she got at Blythecon last year.

For about the last year - things haven't felt right in my life. Everything feels temporary. How I feel is temporary, what I'm doing with my life is temporary. Like I'm waiting for something. But I don't know what that something is. I'm getting kind of sick of it.
I went to junior high and high school in Vilonia. If you know anything about the town, then you know that means I spent a lot of time on HWY 64 headed to Conway. Especially in the 90s there wasn't much to do in Vilonia. Then I lived in Conway from 1999 until 2006. I consider Conway my hometown. I went today, and I can't even begin to tell you all the memories that flooded back. I know I still live close to Conway, but honestly I rarely go into Conway anymore. Today I went to shoot a bit.
Anyway, my hands down favorite place in Conway is Something Brewing. It opened in 1999 in a small house as a 24-hour coffee shop. (Some older man told me the building started out as a small grocery store back in the day.) The economy and chain stores such as Starbucks moved in, and my little coffee shop started to struggle. They didn't stay open 24-hours anymore. I began to worry my beloved home away from home would close it's doors. The owners started working most (if not all) of the shifts. They changed the setup to be more of a sit-down place and miracle of the mom and pop happened: They made it! Mostly thanks to expanding Hendrix, which threw a lot of business their way. Business is back to my little hole in the wall.
Anyone that is reading this and goes to Conway: Stop in. Have some coffee. It is the best coffee I've ever had. If you don't like coffee have a sandwich or a burger. They have pretty good food. Even if you don't keep going here, throw a little money at a local favorite. The economy is bad again. Your towns have a heart and soul because of places like this. Will you ever look back with fond memories of a Starbucks? I highly doubt it. (If you haven't noticed I'm pretty anti-chain. I've always believed in the mom and pops that make towns great, but after witnessing the history of this place it's a passion of mine.)
The owners are also amazing. They are friendly and care about their customers. During the past 10 years I've had a lot of conversations with one of the owners, Larry. He's a good guy just trying to keep the place open.
So please stop by. Eat, drink, and be merry here as I have for a decade now.
P.S. Sorry I got all ranty. I clearly love this place....
If you don't believe me. Here is an article about my beloved.

Something in the way she moves,
Attracts me like no other lover.
Something in the way she woos me.
I don't want to leave her now,
You know I believe and how.
Somewhere in her smile she knows,
That I don't need no other lover.
Something in her style that shows me.
I don't want to leave her now,
You know I believe and how.
my hair looks dreaded, ahh i wish.

I'm curious as to what the architect was thinking. I'm impressed that it has actually survived.

This is what I saw this morning from my window. These two yurtas were erected for the funeral. The white one is for accomodation of the numerous relatives and guests (and it is a modern version of yurta, just a steel frame and a cover), and the brown one is for the dead person. The last one is a good example of traditional yurta.
