I got lost for a period of time and didn't really have anything to say. I felt like if you don't have anything to say then its better not to say anything for awhile.
I have taken a ton of photos the last few months but they all felt so random and disparate. I like to sit back for awhile and let the collection of images marinate until they are ready to tell the adventure by themselves. To delve deeper into the day as it unfolds moment by moment, image by image. Trying to lead the viewer out into the abyss with you until they can almost taste the salt air and feel the heat from the eternal sun on their face. Full speed ahead into the blinding salt spray chasing birds that you hope will lead you to the promise land. The sound of the light house and its droning fog horn as lulls you into a hypnotic trance. All the time anticipating that next bite, hit, strike or bump to bring you back into reality. A small glimpse into the subtle magic of a life adrift.
So back on land when people pass by and ask if I caught anything I always say no because they will never truly understand the full experience or why I go.
