This is Jasper Surya (his friends and keepers call him Wally...after Alfred Russell Wallace)
Wouldn't this make a nice presidential portrait in the White House Gallery.
Vote Wally. No more melancholy.
We can only cut away so much.

Feeling very twisted this morning

Who needs a guard dog when you can have a guard cactus
This door has a secret
Would you?
Of course you would.
Love a corroding wall.
Hate a corroding country.
New thought: lets augment banging our heads against (beautiful) walls with banging on our elected representatives' doors.

A new wall to bang my head against.
Making a melodramatic tragicomedy with cranberry beans.
(cue the ominous music)
If you listen carefully, you'll hear the sounds of fiendish glee.

I don't know about you but when I visit places, I like to bring back a pebble or a stone.
P.S. I highly recommend this as a gentle, low impact creative exercise. You'll be amazed what you start to focus and fixate on that will impact your larger photographic practice.

Who's next? What's next? What to do next?

Snacktime?

Coupla objects and a whole lotta feelings. We're gonna need a bigger memory card.

I will bark up any tree, wrong or right.

Stucko?
Find stucco.
The Orchid Show: Mexican Modernism at the New York Botanical Garden is spectacular
Everybody seems to be draggin’ today.
May your bowl be super;
today and every day.
Your plates, too,

We all have (at least) one junk drawer in our homes; where the random thingamabobs, doohickies and whatnots, not to mention the stray rubber bands, paperclips, old scissors and other stuff gets tossed.
Where you may see a spring cleaning project, I see an hour or two of delight with my camera.
So much fishy stuff going on these days...thought I'd throw in a version that is equally eye rolling...but in a totally delicious way.
On a personal note, I need to be marinated more often.
#escabeche #playingwithmyfood
So many feelings in one stoopid week.
#portraiture #bwphotography
Accosted.
Exhausted.
Disgusted.
I miss being flabbergasted.
Even my flowers are pissed.

I often get to eat truly extraordinary things in my line of work but this...OMG...this is bread made with pumpkin and seaweed filled with uni...this is umami on a whole nother level...this crazy extraordinary revelation might just be an all-time, top 5 "bite."

An eschatological moment in the monochrome garden.

An agastopic moment in the monochrome garden.

Bone Broth. Good for what ails ya.
P.S. Stacey makes way better soup than I do. Thank gawd.

A numinous, efflorescent moment in the monochrome garden.
