Never mind, I'll try again... Thanks for visiting my blog and actually taking the time to read. Most people do not and even less comment. Thanks you. It is much appreciated. I've been having a good read of your blog here and I have to say it is very interesting. The way you look at religions and particularly Buddhism, reminds me of my own searching attidude (as a 'sceptical westerner'...) But I'm commenting on this particular post because these photographs are so moving. For me, they convey the feelings you were trying to capture. In fact, the woods with darkness falling gave me quite a shiver. Excellent photography (even though I know very little about the process) I'll be back to read and view another time, so keep on writing and posting your quite unique photography. zania Hi Brian,

I've had quite a look around here and have to say this is a very complex blog. Written by a complex person I should think. It's actually a very interesting read. But the reason I'm commenting on this particular post is not only because the photography is excellent (even though I understand very little about the process), but because those images conveyes to me very similar feelings to the ones you were trying to capture. Especially the middle photograph 'Spinning out of control'. That's exactly how I would feel lost in those woods as darkeness fell (and other times as well..). Gave me a shiver in actual fact. I will return to view and read some more :) zania Hi Brian,

The self portraits were part of a photography class I took, I have a flickr account, but I've been posting most of my work to my "free-er" google account. You can view them at http://picasaweb.google.com/torotech/ESCPhotographicVision If you've never done self-portraits, you should seriously consider taking some time to explore the history and previous artwork. Most other serious photographers and painters I've met have really feel that self-portraits are very powerful and provide an amazing opportunity to really look at yourself. For me, what was different is that for the first time, I was really the center of attention. I got to take pictures without having to stress about subject-control. I was the subject and I had to accept myself for who I was. Regards, Brian Hi William,
