For my best friend, Jessica, who died tragically in a car wreck. She was 18. She was beautiful. “everyone has moved on now. it’s winter, and the snow has fallen. i’m still here. it’s cold. i can’t leave. I can’t leave you, even though you’re not here anymore. I can’t let go. I don’t want to lose you. I’m afraid of forgetting, and losing you forever. I love you (love is bigger than death, right?) (do you still love me?)”

Agrigento (Girgenti in Sicilian) is a city on the southern coast of Sicily, Italy, and capital of the province of Agrigento. It is renowned as the site of the ancient Greek city of Akragras (a.k.a. Acragas in Greek, Agrigentum in Latin, and Kerkent in Arabic), one of the leading cities of Magna Graecia during the golden age of Ancient Greece.Agrigento was founded on a plateau overlooking the sea, with two nearby rivers, the Hypsas and the Akragas, and a ridge to the north offering a degree of natural fortification. Its establishment took place around 582-580 BC and is attributed to Greek colonists from Gela, who named it Akragas. The meaning of the word is unclear, though the stock commonplace referred to an eponymous legendary founder, an Akragante, apparently no more than a retrospective myth for an obscure name.Akragas grew rapidly, becoming one of the richest and most famous of the Greek colonies of Magna Graecia. It came to prominence under the sixth-century tyrants Phalaris and Theron, and became a democracy after the overthrow of Theron’s son Thrasydaeus. Although the city remained neutral in the conflict between Athens and Syracuse, its democracy was overthrown when the city was sacked by the Carthaginians in 406 BC. Akragas never fully recovered its former status, though it revived to some extent under Timoleon in the latter part of the fourth century.Ancient Akragas covers a huge area — much of which is still unexcavated today — but is exemplified by the famous Valle dei Templi (“Valley of the Temples”, a misnomer, as it is a ridge, rather than a valley). This comprises a large sacred area on the south side of the ancient city where seven monumental Greek temples in the Doric style were constructed during the 6th and 5th centuries BCE. Now excavated and partially restored, they constitute some of the largest and best-preserved ancient Greek buildings outside of Greece itself. They are listed as a World Heritage Site.

It kind of bothers me that I don’t do as much artwork by hand anymore. I just kind of carry my camera around with me now and take pictures instead. ...Of course, I don’t think that it really matters. I enjoy photography a lot, and it kind of makes up for my lack of other artistic medias. Anyway… this is an older picture of a stone bridge in the Hocking Hills of Southern Ohio. I went hiking there with my friend Collin, my Dad, and our dog Sandy last year for a break with nature. It was really quite amazing. I had gotten accustomed to a huddled and cramped area on the face of the earth labeled “Lexington, Ohio”, and had forgetten that there were places, like the Hocking Hills, that existed in this amazing world. I was more fortunate than my friend, who had packed a disposable Kodak camera along for the journey in the hills. I had taken as many pictures as I could, and even then, I still had enough memory left to fill an entire year’s worth of pictures into a scrapbook. It was then that I really began to appreciate the value of photography. I had a decent camera that took really good pictures, and that’s all I really mattered to me. I didn’t need to know what macro photographs were, or what lense size my camera was. All I really wanted was an extention of my artistic abilities, and now I’ve got it. I can say now that I am a photographer, not the best photographer, by all means, but an artistic photographer nonetheless. This is my highest praise to my abilities, and I present to you my claim to Nature’s Firmament.
this is a starting bloom from my christmas cactus. Yes its blooming now. in April. Shot with my Nikon D200 with 60mm Macro and a PK11A extention ring. well you wanted close. This IS close. anyone who has experiance shooting with extention rings, please let me know some of the tricks.
