Earlier this quarter, I had the pleasure and privilege of photographing Luke and Bethany’s lovely outdoor wedding. I have known Luke and his family for years, and it was truly a joy to be a part of his and Bethany’s special day.
For those interested, I have posted just a few more photos from this wedding on Flickr. Congratulations again, Luke and Bethany!
NOT, I’ll not, carrion comfort, Despair, not feast on thee;
Not untwist—slack they may be—these last strands of man
In me or, most weary, cry I can no more. I can;
Can something, hope, wish day come, not choose not to be.
But ah, but O thou terrible, why wouldst thou rude on me
Thy wring-world right foot rock? lay a lionlimb against me? scan
With darksome devouring eyes my bruised bones? and fan,
O in turns of tempest, me heaped there; me frantic to avoid thee and flee?
Why? That my chaff might fly; my grain lie, sheer and clear.
Nay in all that toil, that coil, since (seems) I kissed the rod,
Hand rather, my heart lo! lapped strength, stole joy, would laugh, cheer.
Cheer whom though? The hero whose heaven-handling flung me, foot trod
Me? or me that fought him? O which one? is it each one? That night, that year
Of now done darkness I wretch lay wrestling with (my God!) my God.
- Gerard Manley Hopkins, 1885
These were the clouds outside the window of Kari’s car as she drove us to a lecture we attended the other night. I’ve been revisiting my annoying habit of taking my camera everywhere, and it’s starting to pay off.
Another night, I walked around campus, looking for light leaking out of windows in interesting ways. This is of the Blue House kitchen:
I also took my camera to a recent show by Science Heroes, a group made up of two Gutenberg students who rock way hard. They had really cool lighting:
If I keep this up, hopefully I will have more photos to share with you soon. Cheers.
