Silhouette- You never know what you will see when you fall. This was one of the last pictures I had taken before I threw my Bronica S2a against the wall in anger. That anger still burns inside me today.Related content

Please accept apology for being extremely late, but haven't felt good for quite awhile. Really do appreciate your comments so please don't think they don't mean anything. Am happy that you like this picture. The reason threw camera in frustration is that lived in the country and found that it was impossible to walk very far without assistance, and you can't walk through the woods with a camera while having to hold onto a walker. I couldn't get down low enough to take close ups or macro photography, and to try and remain steady was almost impossible. Which is necessary in the type of work that enjoyed doing. Also to try and sneak up on woodland creatures either riding a 4x4 or a walker, you just scare them off. Even though don't use that camera anymore, it has been repaired. to bad couldn't find an affordable digital back for it. a 220 mm format is a nice size format, but expensive as H***.

Yes, nature often surprizes me with its beauty. As I am quite patient when it comes to wait for nature showing me her best side, I often get rewarded. I'm not that patient with people lol.
There's no reason for you to apologize. I understand. We reply when we can. No worries.
I've just finished reading your Journals..all of them.
I will send you a note later cuz I have some things to share with you.

And it will cost you some more pennies to replace it. Your tools are the most precious items, needed for creative construction. But what do I know? I've pretty much done the same on many an occassion but heaving a PC against the wall doesn't bear thinking about. Nice image and the sunlight gives it a nice contrast. Good perspective, and yes I know you fell but would you have taken it if you hadn't fallen?. Some things are meant to happen.

Yes it was expensive to repair a professional camera, but it was at moment that I knew I was kidding myself thinking I could ever continue as a photographer and make a living. For about a year I had been having problems walking. The Dr. had told me I had a degenerative spinal column. I though he meant osteoarthritis, but no he literally meant my spinal column was disintegrating. When I went to a surgeon to see what could be done. Like the others, the last one told me to keep my mobility scooter. I had told you I live in darkness from a little black cloud.

Aye you did that lass, but destroying inanimate objects serves you no real purpose. It only costs you in the long run and Osteo is one of my problems just now in hips and knees and lower back. That's due to years of yomping (Carrying a huge backpack and walking for miles). Takes it's toll but I live with it and consider it a simple inconvenience even if I have to take these damn steroid injections every 3 months. Lol! You have a talent and I think your anger gets in the way of it. I know you told me of your worries but you can't go on thinking like that. Heavens I could go to the wee shop in the morning and a bloody great double decker bus could hit me square in the face. Lights out. Each day is precious no matter what. You are precious and you have to believe that. I think you have it in you to enjoy what you do and you certainly know what you're about when it comes to art. God if only I could give you a metaphorical tickle, and tease a teeny wee smile.

yea, I had the steroid injections in the back and tailbone, then went to radiofrequency but that ended when one of the needles struck a bone and it chipped off. The Dr. refused to do it any longer. But as I said, its not Osteo. I just was led to believe it was. yea any of us could die at any moment. Or we could live and all those around us die.
I don't believe in god, so don't ask him to let you tickle me. Plus your a man, I think.
