I like how many meanings there are for things. 

It gives you a lot of options,

yet it's also cause for confusion. 

To me, these images are structured confusion.

Carl Warner: Warner began his artistic career as an illustrator, but transitioned to photography after he realized that a photographic outlet was better suited to his artistic talents. The results are often interesting when a photographer originally studies something besides photography; you are able to see those previous interests shine through in their photographs. This definitely holds true for Warner. One of my favorite projects of Warner's is his photographs of nude human bodies. The bodies are layered in a way that make them look like landscapes. Warner's work offers a unique and surreal perspective that is worth checking out. 

MRI Scans of Fruits and Vegetables: This is self-explanatory, and it is amazing. Go stare at the moving images--they are pretty hypnotic.

Park Play

The park in the spring or summertime is one of my favorite places to be. Climbing, playing, rolling around in the grass. The sunshine slants down into long columns and illuminates the grass to make different colored patches of green. Time goes on and on along with laughs, but like everything, day eventually turns to night and then you are left with little light bulbs. Everyone else leaves, and you are alone there to run free, like one of those woodland creatures.

Poetic Title: Some Things Change But Stay The Same

The drive home from the park is an almost ritualistic process: makeup is slightly messed up, window is cracked, music is played loudly. There is a slight high from the whole adventure you just experienced. Then you sit in the driveway for a moment and ponder your night before you travel inside and lay yourself to sleep. 

Tiny Dancer by Elton John played on the radio as I drove my way home.
