OK, editing done. Whew! That's the most editing I've ever done on one photograph. The biggest task was getting rid of a big gouge in the brick wall. Lots of other tweaking too.

I do not just shoot & post photos.
I am Obsessive-Compulsive,
and this is the process I go through
before you ever see one of my images.

Every pixel matters. No pixel left behind. ;-)

Sometimes one line will wait in my head for years, until it's finally time to sew flesh onto that linguistic skeleton. Poetry is the patience of time and memory.

Anything is possible,
If you just believe.

Like a paper airplane on the breeze,
Childhood dreams take flight.

I keep coming back for more.
I keep fighting after war.

With craters on my brain
Like on the surface of the moon,
I keep asking hell to pay and heaven to bless.

Rapunzel was a mannequin head I used to own from a mail-order photography course I dabbled in. I chose to name her Rapunzel as an ironic joke, since she had no hair. The background behind her was the base of my electronic typewriter standing on end. I liked the futuristic look it gave the picture.

Disillusionment
Is good
Because it tears us away from our illusions
And forces our gaze toward what is real.

Translation:
Disillusionment
Is fly
'Cause it disses our illusions.
