About I have no clever "about" here. I have no specific tale to tell. I took this for one reason only... the cracked and decaying bits of shell. Maybe, just MAYBE, I had thoughts about the frailty of human self-assurance and the longing for immortality through pagan monuments...set on display for the ages to gaze upon... and the weathered and cracked visage that we, the ages future, see... maybe I was on about what we are on about... and how the peoples of a later age see us and the hopes we have for life-ever-lived...
or
perhaps
I just saw this and liked the cracked and aged look.


I don’t know… just saying……………

"Thus passes the glory of the world." Yes. I don't know either, exactly why I took this shot... but I can say it speaks to me in words I do not have the ability to translate. Life now and life fleeting... passing of the mortal coil... I cannot put my finger on it but the colors and the light and the decay took hold of me and shook me awake.
