I have a few favorite things in Green-Wood Cemetery that I revisit from time to time.

Gorgeous light this afternoon really picked out these gorgeous birds in all their glory

This beauty had a strange tail attachment.

I am a Jew because, knowing the story of my people, I hear their call to write the next chapter. I did not come from nowhere; I have a past, and if any past commands anyone, this past commands me. I am a Jew because only if I remain a Jew will the story of a hundred generations live on in me. I continue their journey because, having come this far, I may not let it and them fail. I cannot be the missing letter in the scroll. I can give no simpler answer, nor do I know of a more powerful one.

-A Letter in the Scroll, Understanding Our Jewish Identity

and Exploring the Legacy

of the World’s Oldest Religion, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks

Love the textures on the hull of this fishing boat.

My very first Macro Monday...this weeks challenge has satisfied my stationary fetish!

Appropriate uploading of three pictures for the third anniversary of The Mens Dept. It's such a pleasure to participate in this event, it's always so much fun!

This month, the couples pose Attachment, and singles, Stillness, are available at half off, though Trinetty shot the signature all off for Stillness! Enjoy!

Attachment Object One, Two and Three are a group of images based on rusted metal industrial relics found while digging in the garden, rather beautiful in their simplicity of form and function. They are the cast-offs of previous inhabitants, much like artifacts unearthed during an archaeological excavation. These particular objects were large, sharp nails or tools used to join one material to another. The title of this series is also a metaphor for our infatuation with things, our addiction to outcomes, and the detritus we may unwittingly leave behind.
