“There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.”

― Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Photo inspired by Lynne Ramsay's sublime work "You Were Never Really Here".

If you walk down the Royal Mile and you'll see open doorways near the castle end of the street. In Edinburgh terms, these are known as "closes"; basically, very old, narrow, steep streets once replete with open sewers. Now home to bars, restaurants, and museums, they offer a true taste of historic Edinburgh. Advocate's Close is a particularly interesting one; positioned up high, it affords views of the Scott Monument and a good portion of Edinburgh. Halfway down, The Devil's Advocate is a moodily lit bar that serves up excellent cocktails in a historic setting.

Like most of the closes, Advocate's Close, which is thought to date back to the 1500s, is spooky and fascinating, and it's like stepping back in time. Most of these skinny streets have been widened or built over; the closes that remain are a precious fragment of local history. There are many more closes...as World's End Close, Fleshmarket Close etc

Advocate Close, Edinburgh

St. Elizabeth's Catholic Church, in the small town of DeVall's Bluff, Arkansas. The church was built in 1912, but closed in 1986 when the last parishioner passed away. It was then abandoned and left to the elements.

Closes are narrow alleyways that connect streets. Pronounced with an oo sound like in good or food. I found these little closes charming, interesting and a respite from the hordes of tourists filling the main thoroughfares.

HDR, 5 bracketed shots, 2 stops apart.......

I guess for all this time I knew

I was in control

I was losing touch

And now I guess the only thing to do

Is to sell my soul and it won't sell for much

I can't believe for all this time I knew

I was in control

I was losing touch

And yeah, I guess the only thing to do

Is to sell my soul

And watch it go like

If we are truly to celebrate women and advocate for their rights, we must celebrate all women, not just the pretty women, not just the young women, not just the white women, not just the heterosexual women, not just the rich women, and not just the able bodied women.

As surely as a woman ages in this world, she feels herself slowly disappear from the positive remembrances of others. She cannot find happy images that resemble her in any form and she must keep checking her shadow to ensure she still exists in this world.

Think about that for a minute, if you are a man. Aging is hard enough....your muscles and joints will tell you this. But, imagine what it's like if, in addition to being more susceptible to illness and disease, you are also viewed as less desirable.

Also consider this-a woman who desires a younger man is known as a cougar. Though, its a common cliché that men leave their wives and girlfriends for younger women, there is no negative term for a man who does so.

Thats my 13 yr. old. Since he was a toddler he always had a big heart for animals. Funny today I was trying to think of some place to photograph him I look out my living room window and saw this mini billboard for animal advocates and thought this would be perfect!

looking north over the Scott monument.

Sorry about the weird resolution. I have no clue what happened.

Also, i seem to have an obsession with angels don't i? That and lotus Exige's!
