Speechless

I haven't had much to say lately. I think it's because I'm sick of myself. If I could, I would unzip my skin and just walk right out. So instead of fluffy verbiage, I give you something strikingly beautiful to take in. All props to Chris.

Absolutely gorgeous, Good for Me. I hope you start feeling better. I know how you feel...I think I just started coming out of that funk myself. Beautiful photography helps, doesn't it?

arm - thanks for understanding. yeah, when i first saw the photo of the little girl yesterday i stared at her for at least a minute and tears just welled up. beauty does help.

moni - that's exactly what it does for me, friend. just want to go and see the unseen. i'll skype you today so we can chat!

katie - that crazy thing is, i don't think he gets how good he is.

Those are amazing pictures. The landscapes are particularly marvelous. When you see pictures like this, well, the history of Chinese art just makes sense, all those beautiful wistful landscapes...

Becky said...

seb - they truly are remarkable photos. i'm sure the vision in person is so much more remarkable.

Mary said...

Absolutely stunning photos!

Becky said...

mary - indeed. i just want to go there!

Hopefully you can get out on that new bike of yours and hit the pavement. Remember how excited you were when you bought it?

That being said, I know you've had some tragic news recently. Hope you're better soon. The Virginia Tech shooting really saddened me.

Nice pictures by the way.

great photos.


I like the idea of zipping out of ones skin..mmmm

thanks for dropping by

Becky said...

egan - yes indeed, i recall the excitement. the weather here's been awful. huge noreaster passing through. but i'll get out soon. Are you referring to the woman at my church? And as far as the VA Tech incident, it's gripping me. My sister lives in VA, her husband is from VA, and they spend tons of time with their two young sons on college campuses in VA at sporting events. It's hit them pretty hard.

pete - i wish i could take credit for these beauties! yes, it's a bit morbid, but would be a neat little trick, eh?

Chris is a remarkable young guy.... His work reflects his clarity as well as his questions.

Fabulous photgraphy. I could write a story from the deep expression on the second photo, it almost speaks to me of wisdom too soon arrived, of depth of soul, of observation skills unknown.
Thank you for this wonderful post!

i'm not sure but i think maybe your skin helps to hold your body together a bit.

probably better keep it on, just in case.

Becky said...

katie - agreed.

pauline - interesting that the same photo captured us both. I was stunned by this photo and just stared behind teary eyes.

grumble - you may have something here. and SO great to see you comin' round!
