Unintended sins

Wed Jun 17, 2009, 6:06 PM
Just because you cannot remember does not mean you are forgiven.
piecemeal.
Chronic remorse, as all the moralists are agreed,
is a most undesirable sentiment.
If you have behaved badly, repent, make what amends you can
and address yourself to the task of behaving better next time.
On no account brood over your wrongdoing.
Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean.

(from the foreword to A. Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’.)

As an aside I have started making boxes. Levitation boxes, keepsake boxes, fetish boxes with an abundance of skulls.
I am not sure what to make of them.
If you find yourself with nothing to do you can look at them:

For the first time this year I have a project. It is humbling how lost I felt without a direction in which to shoot.
It has always been my belief that if you can photograph something - a nightmare, a fool, a folly or anything that haunts you, if you can get it on paper, in silver, then you own it.
I do not know if that is true.
But you can believe something and know it is not true.
Because in the end belief is more important than the truth.

Hey Lauren!!
We've decided to give you a personal invitation!

:iconthedaemonspawn: and I
have joined forces.

Tomorrow is the opening of a new DA site dedicated to ruins and abandonments only. In putting this together, we thought of you and a slim few who share a small taste for this!

Stay tuned!
Announcement is hours away.
See you!!

As i Watched the Blood Drip... Drip. It was like all the Mixed- up Thoughts in my Head were Flowing Right Out of Me.
I try to keep the gallery growing all the time.

Sorry to hear the laptop is having a seniors moment. It's like having a limb removed when they decide to play up.

Hello Lauren!
Every now and then the dA Gods smile upon me. Today was one of those days, because I just happened across your Gallery. Not only do I think that you are an extraordinarily talented photographer, but you reside in my hometown: The City that Breeds. ;) I gather that you're not actually from Baltimore, but that you're "coping." :laughing: Are you connected with MICA?

Anyway, I am so glad that I found your Gallery, and I am looking forward to delving into your Gallery soon!

It's nice to "meet" you!

I'm not on lulu.com anymore although I do have a book on blurb. I also am still making the handmade 'evidence' book which you may have.
Thanks for the encouragement.
