Funny, they do look a lot more artsy and sophisticated when framed and poster-ified.

 

Wasn't this a nice April Fool's joke they did?

It was raining and it was late,

but the sun was shining among the drops

I saw the elephant and I thought

Can we going on circles just to find, at the end, how fools we are ?

 

MISS

It is truly disturbing how many of us there are . . .

dont be fooled

I had a quick shoot a little while ago with my best friends in House of Fools, kept it simple again and loved the results. If you haven't heard this band it's something you need to do. For fans of: Tom Petty, Led Zeppelin, Queen, and a touch of Kings of Leon.

 

Photo was taken backstage at Lincoln Theatre in their recently renovated Green Room. They painted over the Sharpie covered walls, added a REALLY nice couch and chair, new AC unit, TV, and fridge! They went all out, that room is now super comfortable -- all they need now is to sound proof it all!

 

These guys are currently working on a brand new full length that they are recording on their own, be prepared for something amazing. Once that release gets closer, we are going to plan out a detailed shoot with a bunch of locations -- pretty pumped!!

 

If you're interested, you can view the older photos here: one. two. three.

Fools Gold stars Matthew McConaughey as Ben Finn Finnegan, a good-natured, surf bum-turned-treasure hunter who is obsessed with finding the legendary 18th century Queens Dowry -- 40 chests of exotic treasure that was lost at sea in 1715. In his quest, Finn has sunk everything he has, including his marriage to Tess Finnegan (Kate Hudson) and his more-rusty-than-trusty salvage boat, Booty Calls. Just as Tess has begun to rebuild her life, working aboard a mega-yacht owned by billionaire Nigel Honeycutt (Donald Sutherland), Finn discovers a vital clue to the treasures whereabouts. Certain that his luck will change with the newfound information, Finn maneuvers himself aboard Nigels yacht and, using his good-natured charm, convinces the tycoon and his Blackberry-wielding, celebutante daughter, Gemma (Alexis Dziena), to join him in the pursuit of the Spanish treasure. Against Tess better judgment, the search rekindles her loveof discovery. But they are not the only ones after the treasure. Finns mentor-turned-nemesis Moe Fitch (Ray Winstone) has also set out to claim the prize.

March 30 to April 1 is April Fools for Health week in Windsor. (yes, i know it's not a whole week... don't ask me!) This week is to raise funds for the Clown Doctors program at our local hospitals. Clown Doctors bring joy to patients of all ages. The week's highlight is the "Red Nose Challenge" where schools and businesses compete to see who can sell the most red noses at a toonie each. To get involved call 519-254-5577 x 76004. "Laughter is the best medicine!"

Just when I was going to take the picture of Daniel Naranjo's Faces I noticed my camera was showing the white brackets it shows when it is automatically focusing on someone's face and thought that it was really cool that an origami model had enough features of a human face as to fool a camera.

5x7 Oil on Canvas. Much like the traditional figure of the Fool, Krishna feels light enough to dance right off the edge of the cliff and on into thin air. $3.00 at www.phoenixrefashioning.bigcartel.com

Using an underwater camera, I wanted to capture a sense of drowning and how peaceful it could be.

A monument to my favorite dish.

"A fool is one who goes on trusting; a fool is one who goes on trusting against all his experience. You deceive him, and he trusts you; and you deceive him again, and he trusts you. Then you will say that he is a fool, he does not learn. His trust is tremendous; his trust is so pure that nobody can corrupt it.

 

Be a fool in the Taoist sense, in the Zen sense. Don't try to create a wall of knowledge around you.Whatsoever experience comes to you, let it happen, and then go on dropping it. Go on cleaning your mind continuously; go on dying to the past so that you remain in the present, here now . as if just born, just a babe.

 

In the beginning it is going to be very difficult. The world will start taking advantage of you...let them. They are poor fellows. Even if you are cheated or deceived and robbed, let it happen, because that which is really yours cannot be robbed from you, that which is really yours nobody can steal from you.

And each time you don't allow situations to corrupt you, that opportunity will become an integration inside. Your soul will become more crystallized."- Osho

Schattenspiel Tarot Series

0 THE FOOL/ Schattenspiel Tarot

Meanings and Details

 

0 THE FOOL

 

The Fool is an unnumbered card, but it is assigned the symbolic mathematical equation 0, or, "Zero is one plus minus one." This releases him to travel all over the deck, and The Fool has been known to occupy both the first and last place in the order of the cards. In playing cards, The Fool is also known as the "Wild Card".

  

Another name for the Fool is the Innocent. He may represent naïveté and the spirit of the pure unconscious, but this should not be mistaken for ignorance. I chose to photograph the Fool as a young child to convey ideas of innocence and beginnings, for he is embarking upon the journey of life. He is carrying a sack which contains his few belongings; it is often assumed that these are the Tarot's four symbols-- the cup, the sword, the pentacle, and the wand. The stick supporting the sack could however symbolize the wand. The Fool is using another stick as a support. Later, the magician will hold it aloft as a sceptre and the Hermit once again return it to its initial usage as a support. The sword, coins and cup appear muted in the border as he is still in the land of the unconscious. They reappear fully visible for the Magician.

  

I created a sack out of a cloth covered in skeletons, as endings are inherent in beginnings, and it is wiser to embrace the notion of Death than to live in denial of it. Although the Fool appears as yet oblivious to it, the anticipation of Death is nonetheless part of the burden we carry through life and it often remains an unresolved issue. We also carry within us the seeds of our innocence which as we travel through subsequent roles in life can help sustain us. Through the more difficult dilemmas, it may be important to recall the wonder of this initial engagement with life. Otherwise, Death may take on the appearance of a solution rather than a conclusion.

  

Engaged in an exploration of the world he is newly encountering, the Fool is oblivious to the dangers around him. The steep cliff is a representation of this. The dog who accompanies him is trying to warn him that danger is immanent, for in his raptures he is oblivious to his mortality. The dog, his animal guide, helps protect him. A budding tree reveals that it is springtime to further emphasize the notion of beginnings and reminding us of the cyclical nature of life. The roots reveal the interwoven foundation which provides us with support. As this is a Celtic influenced deck, it is also a reference to Celtic Knot Design and the pre-Christian worship of trees ,in particular, the Oak, in the British Isles.

   

On a personal note, this card represents my youth, which was spent travelling with a backpack through an endless stream of adventures and dangers. Somehow I managed to blunder my way through them all without literally falling off the cliff. I chose my son to portray the Fool, as it is now his turn to embark upon the wheel.

 

The dog's name is Ogre. He once consumed my favourite leather face mask. We had to fill my son's moccasin with cat food in order to to attract Ogre's interest!
