When you first arrive here you have to wonder what you are going to find as there are just sheep paddocks as far as the eye can see, but once you walk down to the falls this massive crater opens up in one of the paddocks, it is such an amazing surprise. This location is a well known haunt for rock climbers in Summer. The track leading down to the base of the falls has been fenced off, but it is relatively safe to venture down.

The Orton Effect is named after photographer, Michael Orton. He basically would shoot two images of the one scene on slide film, the first sharp and over exposed by two stops and the second out of focus and over exposed by one stop. He would then sandwich the two images together in a slide mount to give an impressionistic view of the scene. This link explains how to re-create the effect digitally with photoshop.

this rusty bedspring haunted me. i wondered what had happened on this stage over its lifetime. i remembered some recent statistics i read that said maybe 1-2 out of every 3 people have had some, at least covert, sexual abuse. i always thought this portrait spoke of something far away that still haunted him. for many adults that is childhood abuse that these stats were trying to define
in scraping emulsion to alter polaroids i used this surface, kept it on the work table and used it for notes. i packed it away for about 26 years and just pulled it out. it was mistakenly scooped up and stored with ‘finer’ prints. this is the only one i liked today. simmering works!
a missive from the night, encoded yet forthcoming. / the mission of urban angels. / the identification of targets. / appropriate means / hypnogogia / scramble
I got a couple of viable answers. One was that life is that way. / Another had to do with disenfranchisement. Oh, I thought, that. you have residual PTSD. / you were a child in the 60’s / ask Dr. Leary. / hmmm social experiments and social/cultural revolution brought me something else / and / that’s a clinical thing, sadly I realized this morning that I have PTSD that works like this: I have the unshake-able idea that at the peak of joyous social change really bad and really sad things are going to happen. I got the notion (suddenly not so ephemeral and italicized) that revolution costs enormous, sad, tragic, life-long, not so great life-altering costs. I am a child of the 60’s. Please forgive me.
True Home is the space behind the gorgeous door. / True Celebration is what happens with electricity! / Whoever you are that painted this brilliant door, hung the greenery and strung these fabulous lights…I hope that your season shines brightly this year and that you are cozy, safe, optimistic, in love and awestruck. Merry Christmas to you, my unknown friends.
