She towers above me

She towers above me

When she cries I drown
When she laughs I am deafened
And when she sings,
I am in heaven

She towers above me

With stars in her eyes
And the sun in her smile
Her head in the clouds
And the wind in her hair

For she towers above me

A giant in my mind
Too tall to climb
An aeroplane I cannot fly
A lift I cannot ride

For she towers above me

And I am not worthy

Maple Sapling The start of a long struggle

The fragility of new life.
The Precipice on which we start our climb
and the sky's that we reach for.

I Stumbled across this Maple sapling on the forest floor,with nothing else around it but fallen blossom. It was growing out of an old tree stump and was occasionally teased with a small amount of dappled sunlight the dense canopy would let through. I almost felt sorry for the little thing. I'm not sure it will make it.

The early spring has bought plenty of sunshine and also plenty of time to enjoy it(due to the live music scene being rather slow this time of year). I have been spending a lot of time taking photos in old haunts of mine along with Louis who is getting back into Photography,with his new pretty little Ricoh GX200. It's so inspiring to take photos with friends and to re-visit all the places I used to go for walks when I lived in Stockbridge. It's a truly beautiful place right in the centre of the city and I think myself exceedingly lucky to have spent 4 years of my life there.

So where do I buy my ticket

Second part of my 'Two bridges with nowhere to cross' series. This isn't a staged shot but because of the flat light I think I might have to go back and re-stage with a more dynamic sky. The reflections are great and the composition turned out perfectly for the mood I was trying to create,the problem is the lack of contrast between the sky and the sea.

This series is trying to convey the problems I am having with making decisions in my life. I inevitably regret every decision I make and am looking for some confidence. My art helps with this but I still struggle with who I am and what I am supposed to be doing. Where I am meant to be heading and where I have come from.
