Don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all. - Stanley Horowitz
The unspoiled snow
Those solitary footprints
I am almost alien to all of these
The sun shining through a thin veil of cloud
Dwarfing me
Powerless
Like thrown into an intrepid exploration
Not knowing the outcome
and I surrender
Words of Dimitri, December 2018
“Each morning we awaken to the light and the invitation to a new day in the world of time; each night we surrender to the dark to be taken to play in the world of dreams where time is no more. At birth we were awakened and emerged to become visible in the world. At death we will surrender again to the dark to become invisible. Awakening and surrender: they frame each day and each life; between them the journey where anything can happen, the beauty and the frailty.”—John O’Donohue, “Beauty, the Invisible Embrace”
in memory of Don, on the anniversary of his death and new life...

"Your love was like the dawn
Brightening over our lives,
Awakening beneath the dark
A further adventure of color..."

Happy Friday! Here’s another one from San Diego. The statue by Seward Johnson is apparently one of a series of three (I think this is the largest, though) and is based on the iconic photo (or photos depending on who you ask) taken back in 1945.
Unconditional Surrender is a sculpture by J. Seward Johnson based on the Life magazine photo of a sailor kissing a nurse at the end of World War II. This small version of his work is currently part of the "Crossing Paths" exhibition on the University of Florida campus in Gainesville Florida. A larger version is permanently displayed along the bayfront in Sarasota Florida.

Found a dead wasp in my room and was stung (pun intended) with how pretty it actually is.

I think my daughter has a good chance of taking on the role of Dorothy at some point in this life. Halloween, 2010. What kind of amazes me is that when I'm taking pictures of her, she actually poses just like this for me. I really don't need to tell her anything...
I'm having a -I dont give a damn- days, everytime I give a damn it seems that I am the one who gets hurt and pushed down to my lowest point again !
I surrender..
** PLEASE ASK ME BEFORE USING ANY OF MY WORK.
I surrender, I surrender
I'm giving up the role of pretender
I remember, I remember
Can't you feel the love that I send ya
I surrender.

Unconditional Surrender, aka Kissing Couple Statue, by William Salisbury, USS Midway Museum, San Diego, CA.
Every year on the anniversary marking the end of World War II, the Times Square Alliance invites couples (though strangers would be more appropriate) to come make out in the same spot this nameless couple did just 62 years ago.
"Couples of all ages and from all walks of life were invited to meet in front of the sculpture “Unconditional Surrender”, which was created by acclaimed artist Seward Johnson, memorializing a famous photo snapped by Lieutenant Victor Jorgenson and evoking the iconic LIFE magazine cover photo taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt.", reported the Alliance website.
Kissers were handed out a sailor cap, roses and... breath mints!
For more, much better pictures, visit the Times Square Alliance website.
For clues that reveal who might have been the passionate nurse and sailor of the picture, read Sewell Chan's article "When a Kiss Isn’t Just a Kiss" in The New New York Times.
This is creepy. And it didn't come out exactly as I wanted. They never do though, right?
Random fact about me: I have a mole on my palm since the day I was born. It's chocolate brown so people always think that I was eating chocolate and I didn't clean my hand properly. I used to hate having it but as I grew older I started loving it day by day. It's one of the things that make me me. :)
Ask me something in my formspring. I'll post the answers here.

While shooting I started to realize that this project is "unfolding" my thoughts and becoming a storyteller about my everyday life. Today, the "unfolded thought" was about the idea that we are always waiting for better things to come such as a better job for example, a nicer house, a nice vacation, etc. At the end what we really look for is a better state of being and that does not come from outer circumstances, for how better they can become.
I've learnt to surrender, to not worry about what is going to happen tomorrow, to not absolutely plan all the things in my life and from my prospective sharing this experience with you I can say that it makes life way lighter.
So it's time to get rid of all your worries, doubts, fear and stress and enjoy the present because it's a precious gift!
