The lone guy sitting on the church steps revealed a sad smile in anticipation of me taking his picture. I felt an apprehension at the intrusion and at the last minute angled the camera upwards.

29.06.2010 - Green Leaves

We are playing hide and seek. From my secret hideaway, I can barely see you walking way over there. Oh, the thrill of the seeker heading off in the wrong direction.

28.06.2010 - Turksvye

With white on red, a statement is made. I am only too relieved that the shop is closed. Prickly pears and stories of thorns tweezed out of milk white foot soles scare me. Thank goodness they don’t pretend to be everyday fruit, those rebellious renegades. Let them remain here, where they can still get their name in white on red.

Song pairing: Fantastic Pace – Portugal The Man

27.06.2010 - Big Tree

Too many foreign fight films have lead me to believe that I can traverse from branch for branch with merely a firm flying jump to each.

Song pairing: Long Time Comin’ – Bruce Springsteen

26.06.2010 - Chalk Ten

Song pairing: Starting Over – John Lennon

25.06.2010 - Sunlight Window

Imagine drawing aside the dusty curtain that probably has not been moved in years (be careful of the spider) and just letting the light stream in.

Song pairing: Rush Minute – Massive Attack

24.06.2010 - Paper Bag

Inside, there are four apples and six carrots to be exact. The paper bag crunches as I fold it carefully.
