📷📸 Oh, did you find that a little piece of you was missing? We were hoping you wouldn't notice, apologies. It's being used as an ingredient for something wonderful. A delicious wholesome home cooked meal made with love and care. #photography #art #industry #nightphotography #liminalspace

📷📸 Threading nerve through the eye of the needle, pulling it taught as to feel the steel intimately. Weave a cloak to conceal us both, covered, hidden from the prying eyes who would guard this place and many like it. They do not know the value of this place and do not respect it. #photography #art

📷📸 When you look up at your god do you ever wonder if he's lonely? To be asked for so much, without equal, no peers or confidants? What insanity that must stir in somebody. What kind of world would they create after being driven into such madness? #photography #art

📷📸 What will you do, now that the doors have closed, locked and forced you outside? The congregation chatters and sings their gospel, each word indistinguishable from any other, but the roar of their brotherhood breaks through the walls and hits you, knocks you over. #photography #art

📷📸 Thrown outside unprepared, everything evaporates. Flash freeze. All pretense broken. My skin thins and what I am is finally visible on the surface. The spotlight is on me. Is it that obvious? My eyes shut as I pray I open them back up somewhere better. #photography #art #liminalspace #night

📷📸 Come and ride with me
It's late and our eyes are growing heavy
Like great iron bulkheads they're closing fast
We can slip in a bit more fun before it's too late
We can go anywhere we want
As long as we can stay awake

📷📸 The locusts are almost here. I can hear them rumbling. A buzz I can feel in my bones. When the cloud arrives there will be darkness, the air saturated with an unceasing, ravenous enemy, and then when everything has been plundered, sweet silence. And no one will have learned a thing. #photography
