Another little brown argus, perched on a wild plant whose name I'm unaware of.
One thing with this type of shot is that it's hard to compose shots through the "mini-forests" - there are always other bits of grass and plants in the way and you have to do the best that you can.

named for the Damien Jurado song I'm listening to.
out from my window, across from the city
i have what's considered a good view
two blocks from the subway, three from the fountain
where i walk to break in my new shoes
she stands on the sidewalk just waving at taxis
like horses and parades in passing
i ask where she's headed, she tells me ohio
i've not seen my mother in ages
it's been a long time
a real long time
out from my window, how far is ohio?
she laughed, and pointed out east
she said i grew up there with my dear mother
and i haven't seen her since thirteen
you see i was taken while she lay sleeping
by my father's hired men
we moved to the city, so far from my family
i haven't been back there since
it's been a long time
a real long time
out from my window, please hear me ohio
your daughter wants to come home
she longs to be with you, to hug you, to kiss you
to never leave her alone
and i've gotten to know her, to live with to love her
it's hard to see her leave
she belongs to her mother and the state of ohio
i wish she belonged to me
see you some time
see you some time

My goal with this series is to explore every day scenes under the cover of darkness. A street corner, a lamp post, a doorway. Big city, small town, urban, rural. Man-made light versus nature’s darkness–––light and shadow interpreting minimalist settings in black and white. To see more in this series, check out Cover Of Darkness
Early on in the COVER OF DARKNESS series, I shot a couple gas stations. They were not initially the type scene I was looking to capture, but when I came across one late at night, bright and isolated in the darkness, it was impossible for me to resist, so I continue to shoot them. I have now shot enough that they have become a series-within-the-series. For a look at them as a collection, check out, Gas Stations
