Points of Origin
“From the first place of liquid darkness, within the second place of air and light,
I set down the following record with its mixture of fact and truths and memories
of truths and its direction toward the Third Place,
where the starting point is myth.”
~Janet Frame, To The Is Land

Here I share with you another photo I shot yesterday, a companion to Revealing « THROUGH THE HEALING LENS in order to ‘reveal’ to you more of the environment in which these photos were created. Enjoy 😉

I shot the above self-portrait from the deck, during my boat ride home Sunday.
Please note that my eyes are facing the direction opposite the sea…’twas not a mirror,
but rather a window with a view inside the vessel.
And thus, the image inspired my quote today.
