Sometimes I Write Stories and Have Ideas

In a small town near the Dunes, a local restaurant sits proudly across from a parking lot for a grocery chain, proclaiming itself. “PANCAKE HOUSE” its sign reads. It is listed as Campus Cafe, and it is true that a university is only a couple blocks away, but you’ll find no students here. When I […]

Silver moon, what have you seen these nights upon a lingering dream? Of all humanity’s religious focuses over our long and storied history, I always find moon-cults fascinating and compelling. Whether it be the moon itself or that which it harbors and signals, the moon offers a great deal more mystery and interest than the […]

Upon The Watchtower

All along the watchtower, the pious say their prayers. They pray for rain, for peace, for life, and their neighbours’ sovereign souls. Their prayers go unanswered. Not for lack of belief or poor aim, but because their god is a cruel one. This god is hate and death and defiance. The pious believe that this […]

When I’m out hunting for photos, sometimes it can feel like a real drag. Going to places other people have been, to capture stuff other people have seen, to post online where a hundred versions of the same photo is a garbage experience. So, to combat this, I have to wait for a moment to […]

It’s the end of another day, and you can see the sun beginning to dip below the horizon. Its yellows and whites fade to red and orange as the duskborn curtains douse the flames of the fiery eye. End of watch, another final time. An eon past when morning first graced the tender dew of […]

Falling All The Way

Waterfalls are hard to photograph. You can’t really capture the sounds, the smells, the lingering dampness that stretches a half mile from the fall itself. It’s a gut-deep experience. Things like that just defy any attempt to fully summarize their experience in imagery or text. This waterfall in southern Oregon or Washington (I can’t remember) […]

How much of our wonder at fragility comes from the question – when will it fail? The Leaning Tower of Pisa, The Tree of Life pictured Above, Delicate Arch in Utah – each will someday succumb to the frailty of time and come to rest on the weary ground in repose. And so I wonder, […]

Ominous Lookout

a spear erupts from the lapping waves, the outlook grim and dark the fisherman scowls, the rain pours down, but in his eyes, a spark the day not done, a battle not won, the work is yet to cease but in the depths a monster waits for final breath’s release into the wind the hero […]

Sometimes my mind returns to the somewhat silly moments in the first two Marvel Avengers movies when the Hulk has to be talked down for one reason or another. Whoever is trying to calm him down says “The sun’s getting real low, buddy.” I have no idea why that line sticks in my mind’s track […]

I took the photo in this post at Crater Lake in the US. It was early June, yet the rim drive was obscured by whiteout blizzard conditions. Normally, this view should have been a grand expanse stretching from east to west but on this day I couldn’t see more than 30 feet out. In the […]
