The "Unconditional Surrender" statue of a sailor and nurse kissing will be moved from San Diego to New Jersey after Memorial Day, loaned to San Diego in 2007 by the Sculpture Foundation, where it will undergo maintenance before the roughly 6,000-pound sculpture and its 24,000-pound base will be shipped to New Jersey according to the Port of San Diego.

After a busy week and week end, an opportunity came up to head out and explore after some bad weather started to clear. It great finding old ruins.
When we deliberately leave the safety of the shore of our lives, we surrender to a mystery beyond our intent.

I originally shot this for a book cover but the publishers ended up going a slightly different direction. I loved it though, and couldn't help myself with Halloween so near! I love Halloween but I'm terrified of all things scary, so in reality we shouldn't mix. The most I can do is watch Hocus Pocus, carve pumpkins, and bake apple crisp. All of which I am doing several times over.
I feel a sense of joy and lightness with the end of October nearing. It marks the end of a lot of travel, and there is nothing I value more than being home. To me, home is where I can settle into myself. I'm spending the next two months re-writing my novel, printing the new series I've been working on all year, and creating new works by myself and for myself. Home is an amazing place if you cultivate it as such.

Standing right by the Midway Aircraft Carrier is this 25 ft. statue of the iconic photo taken Aug. 14, 1945, in Times Square New York City the day World War II ended. A sailor stopped a nurse, gave her a big kiss which was captured by a random photographer.
It become the symbol of the joy felt when the war was finally over. Called, "The Kiss" or "Unconditional Surrender" it's replicated here in bronze, overlaid with painted aluminum.
I had to post a collage because there were no people to show scale when we first got there in the morning.
I am not overly confident when it comes to couples poses. Thank you Carson for helping me and your encouragement xoxo.

Kyiv - Never Surrender by Daniel Arrhakis (2022)
A Free People never surrenders to unscrupulous liars and Assassin Dictators ! Glory And Peace to Ukraine!
With the music : "Above and Beyond" from the Audiomachine GREATEST HITS release
A creative inspirational fantasy using stock images and images of mine. Elements modified and recreated.
The Building is the "House with Chimaeras" in Kyiv, Ukraine: An Art Nouveau building covered in animal gargoyles and grotesques.
The Polish architect Władysław Horodecki originally constructed the House with Chimaeras for use as his own upmarket apartment building during the period of 1901–1902.
Horodecki's unique architectural style earned him praise as the Antoni Gaudí of Kyiv.

I was actually planning on creating a totally different image for this week, but loved this as soon as I shot it. It reminded me of what direction I was wanting to take my photography, I had this idea a couple of years ago, of creating characters that lived in this lost in between place. A world that changes you, if only you can survive it. That's where most of my characters live, but you normally only see the dark effect and not the beginning. This character has yielded to this dark place; and with one fingertip, she has surrendered herself completely.

You can Surrender
Without a Prayer
But never really pray
Without surrender
You can Fight
Without ever Winning
But never ever win
Without a fight.

Ahhhhh, I'm at the beach. And I wasn't all that excited at first, but then I saw it. OH GOD IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
Swimming in the ocean is awesome. The sunsets are amazing. (I'm by the Gulf of Mexico so the sun actually sets on this side)
It's really gorgeous... <3
This was actually post-sunset. The colors lingered in the sky for quite some time. djsjfksjdfkjds <3

Surrender to everything that is. It's not to be confused with giving up. For surrendering requires at the same time the greatest courage but is expressed in the smallest shifts. Sometimes barely noticeable through our sensory perspectives considering the great change these small shifts bring about. It's a matter of scale. We sometimes feel stuck in this box where bugs are small and trees are big, forgetting how everything is relative and not everything resides inside the box. We don’t learn (or we forget) how thoughts are energy, just as much as our actions in the material world. The same goes the other way around, when we attribute too much to physical action and even feel trapped by our own inaction at times, all the while being unaware that the world is still spinning and nothing is ever standing still. Trust the process. Let the waves wash.
