I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection.
‘Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death.

Green dress

Test shots. Green dress, manual focus lenses. Used here: mamiya 80mm on a tilt/shift adapter, lensbaby 2.0 with 4-5.6 aparture ring. 32″octabox without a diffusion on a boom. Just can’t seem to get it perfectly strait and symmetrical to fake that beauty dish look a bit better.

Random

Randomness has somewhat differing meanings as used in various fields. It also has common meanings which are connected to the notion of predictability (or lack thereof) of events.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines ‘random’ as “Having no definite aim or purpose; not sent or guided in a particular direction; made, done, occurring, etc., without method or conscious choice; haphazard.” This concept of randomness suggests a non-order or non-coherence in a sequence of symbols or steps, such that there is no intelligible pattern or combination.

Grandparents

“What children need most are the essentials that grandparents provide in abundance. They give unconditional love, kindness, patience, humor, comfort, lessons in life. And, most importantly, cookies.” ~ Rudolph Giuliani

Sunday morning.

I’d trade you places any day,
I’d never thought you could be that way,
But you looked like me on Sunday.
