Learn to Sail

Learn to Sail

This is a photo I took a while ago, but never got around to posting. This is my favorite place on the Esplanade. If you look closely you’ll see the following text written on the sailboat:

Learn to Sail 617-523-1038

I have no idea how to sail, but this makes me want to learn.

Trainset

I’ve been abnormally quiet for the past few weeks because of camera problems, but my D200 is finally back and I’m ready to get started again, especially with the summer fast approaching. The dust problem is still there, but I don’t care at this point - it’s much better than it was and it still takes great pictures which is all that really matters. This shot was taken on the Longfellow bridge in Boston. The day started off rather cloudy, but gave way to this gorgeous sunset.

Trainset
Trainset

The wind howls through time
Past my face and into the dusk
Collapsing the light onto itself
In a vortex of blissful surrender.

Breath by breath
I breathe the stillness of the moment
Breath by breath
I breathe the fury of the wind.

The argument is ended sharply
By the pulsating sound of steel
Against steel, reverberating
Into the fading light.

I close my eyes in anticipation
Waiting for the night to come
And take one last breath
Before the day is done.
