the wrong side of the tracks

just a few feet in the right direction

could have made all the difference

i could have been beautiful

but no one noticed

or cared

all because of those few feet

on the wrong side of the tracks

Over a concrete jungle

She holds court

Admirers always follow

and notice

In the bleakness

A reminder

running into the fog

mystery followed

[verasaltzmanphotographs]

My toes spread

Sink into the sand

Only to find the cold

And somedays I just want to share a look into the life of Mr Bean, our yellow lab. American Poet Mary Oliver wrote:

“A dog can never tell you what she knows from the smells of the world, but you know, watching her, that you know almost nothing.”

It's been a very long time since I've posted to this Tumblr account, opting to use Instagram instead. But, after all this time there is still something about Tumblr that draws me back...so I've decided to start posting again. Let's just see what happens.

A little feature on my practice. Something positive that happened in 2020.

100 years ago childrened roamed the halls of this old school. It's in Ituna, Saskatchewan, Canada. I find it very stately looking. There was a house off to the right but I decided to remove it so the focus would be soley on the building. I made the image with my 4x5, scanned the negative and post produced in photoshop.

Grain Elevator No. 19 I continue to photograph them...to honor them. To share their sadness.

I have photographed these 3 trees a number of times and I never get tired of looking at them. It is the 3ism of them I guess.

the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand The Stolen Child by W.B. Yeats I made these images from the car. I had recently read the poem “O Human Child” and really got stuck on this one line. Still the line haunts me.
