how, in one fail swoop, can a single person give you all the optimism in mankind and worry for the world that you can possibly muster ... i think it's called parenthood :)
But still try, for who knows what is possible. - Faraday
The chairs were probably taken out to enjoy a smoke, then forgotten. They seem to invite onlookers to view the world from this perspective.

I love my friends. It's thanks to them that I still feel optimistic and generally in good mood even when I am 27. Thank you!
Sometimes I shoot self portraits when I can't put my feelings into words. I found out yesterday that my grandmother has breast cancer. I didn't know how to feel or explain, as I really didn't know how bad it was or how it was going to be treated. After calling her and finding out the logistics, I felt a sense of relief because there seems to be more hope in it all than I originally thought.
I love my grandmother. She, with my mother and grandfather, were the three most influential adults in my life until I was 14. They each took equal parts in raising me and changing my life in the deepest ways. They were my three parents.
My grandfather died when I was a freshman in high school and I was a mess after his death. For a writing class recently, I had to unearth all of those buried feelings of loss and sorrow and write about the day he died and the events that followed. Needless to say it was a chance to experience healing. So, the timing of my grandmother's condition is kind of ironic, in a sick way. After dealing with the pain of losing my grandfather, I was now experiencing this new possibility of losing my grandmother.
It's been a ride, to say the least.
These images are meant to be viewed in numerical order, but they were uploaded backwards to Flickr. Just a heads up.
This image (#3) is meant to illustrate how I felt after speaking to my grandmother on the phone. Brighter, more hopeful and optimistic. Everything is looking up, though it's all still terribly unfortunate and there's a long road ahead for my grandmother.
I love her dearly, and I hope that you can keep her in your prayers.

Call me Snake offers an optimistic provocation – ‘imagine what could be here’ by Judy Millar. On a walk into the city October 3, 2015 Christchurch New Zealand.
The work is comprised of vibrant graphics of Millar’s looped paintings, which are adhered to five intersecting flat planes, and draws inspiration from the forms found in pop-up books. The colourful piece will add a dramatic and rhythmic counterpoint to the city’s current urban landscape — a mix of flattened sites, construction zones and defiant buildings that have stood through the quakes. The work employs theatricality, playfulness and visual trickery, whereby the viewer is unsure about the work’s flatness or three-dimensionality; and it has been designed to offer a different perspective from each angle. The bright colours interrupt the grey of the work’s surrounds, and as buildings pop up around it,
SCAPE 8, New Intimacies curated by Rob Garrett was a contemporary art event which mixed new artworks with existing legacy pieces, an education programme, and a public programme of events. The SCAPE 8 artworks were located around central Christchurch and linked via a public art walkway. All aspects of SCAPE 8 were free-to-view.
The title for the 2015 Biennial – New Intimacies – came from the idea that visually striking and emotionally engaging public art works can create new connections between people and places. Under the main theme of New Intimacies there are three other themes that artists responded to: Sight-Lines, Inner Depths and Shared Strengths.

I bought them last year. Thought it was funny to have the same kind of shoes in another color. I don’t know why, but they are evil, they cut my toes. Lately I am not very lucky with my shoes.
Meet his good brother.
I spent a day in Malmo, Sweden, visiting a friend there. A lovely city with interesting artwork and architecture.
I was walking on a nature trail in Tampa, Florida.
The trail ended at an elementary school back lot. It was a Sunday, so I poked around.
There was a dumpster behind the school, and this guy was sitting on top of the dumpster in exactly the pose I show here.
I like his optimism. He's in a dumpster, but he's definitely on top of the situation.
Cool.

At the Brugge cemetery, Belgium. Most of the graves from up 1900 are showing photos of the deads as an enamel plaque. After many years even the photos are fading away, rthe colour bleach or the enamel breaks. And so fades the rememberance.
He's looking so young and optimistic.

Update on Darby! The little kitten who couldn't poop to save his life is doing great now! He's completely off meds for constipation and so far so good! It's still not super clear what caused his severe constipation but we're optimistic he won't have any lasting effects from the ordeal. Darby is set to get neutered Monday and if all goes well he'll be going to his forever home! Thanks again to all who helped us cover his staggering vet bills!
