Photographers truly see things only once they’ve photographed them.
12.21.14 Salvation Mountain.
“It was called, technicolor mountain, mountain of love, hundreds of names. People…decide to call it Salvation Mountain.
When I came here, I wanted to put “God is love to the world,” on a hot air balloon. I spent 15 years in Nebraska and Vermont trying to make a hot air balloon, and the thing rotted out on me here and never got up. So I told God, “Im going to stay one week and make an eight-foot one. 24 years later Im still here…
…For 45 years of my life, Ive had a one-track mind. To put God almighty to the whole universal world, and to keep it simple. God loves us all. Don’t get complicated with love. Lets keep it simple.” – Leonard Knight

“A poet could write volumes about diners, because they’re so beautiful. They’re brightly lit, with chrome and booths and Naugahyde and great waitresses. Now, it might not be so great in the health department, but I think diner food is really worth experiencing periodically.” – David Lynch

Photography is the art of capturing the life and the world around you. If you’re unhappy with your photography trying upping your fun and doubling your adventuring; having a gorgeous lady to share it with doesn’t hurt either.

“Not cry. Fly.
“I can’t fly,” Bran said. “I can’t, I can’t…”
How do you know? Have you ever tried?
The voice was high and thin. Bran looked around to see where it was coming from. A crow was spiraling down with him, just out of touch, following him as he fell. “Help me,” he said.
I’m trying, the crow replied…
The crow took to the air and flapped around Bran’s hand.
“You have wings,” Bran pointed out.
Maybe you do too.
Bran felt along his shoulders, groping for feathers.
There are different kinds of wings, the crow said…
Bran was falling faster than ever. The grey mists howled around him as he plunged toward the earth below. “What are you doing to me?” he asked the crow, tearful.
Teaching you how to fly.
“I can’t fly!”
You’re flying right now.
“I’m falling!”
Every flight begins with a fall, the crow said. Look down.” – George R.R. Martin
