Bodyscapes

“Kayak” by Allan Teger
The thing about kayaking is, you just never know where it will take you. Artist & Photographer Allan Teger is a self-taught photographer who gained a reputation for his hand painted black and white prints. Bodyscapes is an expression of the repeating shapes of nature and the perception of two realities in co-existance. Unlike the double exposure & photoshop work we often see today, Teger creates these unique landscapes using toys and miniature “people” photographed directly on the human body. To see more “Bodyscapes” you can visit his website here. Mind you, Bodyscapes is a bit grown up.

And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end;
and much study is a weariness of the flesh.” - Ecclesiastes 12:12
So I was talking to someone a couple days ago about blogging again. Every so often someone will ask me for my thoughts on making blogs profitable. They are kidding right? Yeah, well there is probably a way to do it but I’ve not found it. I can’t say I’m looking either. You can’t blame folks for wanting to find a business model that involves their favorite past times.

THE PUNCHTUATIONIST
Posted by derrick on October 15, 2008
There is a great article on the Atlantic’s website called “Why I Blog” by Andrew Sullivan complete with seafaring metaphors. Having been doing this gig quite some time I can really relate to many of the points he makes. Being legenary as a sloppy speller and punctuationist. . (punctuationer??) I so get this:
“Blogging is therefore to writing what extreme sports are to athletics: more free-form, more accident-prone, less formal, more alive. It is, in many ways, writing out loud.” - Andrew Sullivan
Oh and by the by the way. Yes I am planning to make an old western movie about an outlaw English professor called, “THE PUNCHTUATIONIST”. John Ford will be proud. . .
