Decided last night around 11:00 to head out and try some shot with street lamps. it was foggy and cold but the atmopshere was perfect for this. As we do this shoot on our way to grab a beer at local pub the topic of what we see and how we interupt what we see is brought up. A good example of this would be the moments of true understanding send a chill right to bone right down to the core of what makes you.. you. A example of this might be a little silly but heres the story.
I think I was 8 maybe 10, it was back in my home town of ponoka and I was waiting to play a baseball game, however it started to rain and we got a phone call telling us if it did not let up we would not be having todays game. This was truely terrible news for my young self, I wanted to play so bad and I would not let rain stop me.
So what to do...
Well my repsonse to this event as a child was to start singing the "Mr. Sun", yes yes I know.. but I was kid and this what I did.. but what happened next was either a giant conwindence or something more. See it was cloudy really cloudy and the overcast was not letting much if any light though and it did not seem like there was any hope of this clearing up soon.
So I sang... loud and hard as I could I was this little kid screaming this song into the heavens... I wanted nothing more but to believe that I could change this.. if I tried hard enough and felt hard enough I could change this. It was to the point that I almost felt electirical and I had this engery pusling through me I was yelling so hard I felt my eyes water with the anicaption of what I knew would come.... and.. to my surprise it did. You see in that moment everything stoped around me it was just me and the sky almost a eery stare at each other..
I can not explain that day and it all may have been in my head but it was real to me..
Just thought I woul share that..
oh and one of the pictures from last night...
