unphilosophize me

"Here I am, a bundle of past recollections and future dreams, knotted up in a reasonably attractive flesh. I remember what this flesh had gone through; I dream of what it may go through. I record here the actions of optical nerves, of taste buds, of sensory perception. And, I think: I am but one more drop in the great sea of matter, defined, with the ability to realize my existence.” -Sylvia Plath

The photographer Keith Carter is interested in the everyday figures—idle kids, blue-collar workers, animals both domesticated and less so—that contribute to Texas’s mythology. His monograph “From Uncertain to Blue” features one image from each of a hundred small towns across Texas, from Ding Dong to Smiley to Nada. Carter pays ode to Texas with rich, allegorical images.

Read the full piece, “A Photographer’s Loving Ode to Small-Town Texas,” here.

I didn’t plan to make this look like a romantic scene from an 80s movie, but the soft focus does fit this couple nicely…

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle” sometimes seems like such a clichéd and trite utterance to me yet when I find myself in the midst of a battle I wish everyone would take this to heart.
