Three weeks in a row, in January with temperatures 60℉ and above. Then this. I took the opportunity to go outside around midnight to fire a couple of rounds into this tree.

Standing listing to the symphony that is flowing water. In response to Iconic Photography or Cliché? Who be Judging Who? It is up to the people, lookers and takers, to decide what is cliché and what is not, no? In the Emperor's New Clothes, fashion was a statement of perception, not necessarily reality. As with art who can say what is or is not?

I did the tour of this Icon in the late seventies.  I vaguely remember having a severe headache, and the need to find a restroom, as the bus dropped us off in the visitor parking lot after the tour.

I live in a 21st Century World.  I dream in a 12th Century World.  What I put in my camera is oft times a reflection of what I dream.

To sacrifice control and live creatively requires attention to the subtle nuances and irregular orders going on around us.
