for L. happy birthday

leave out all the rest

[link]

i dreamed i was missing
you were so scared
but no one would listen
cause no one else cared
after my dreaming
i woke with this fear
what am i leaving
when i'm done here?
so if you're asking me i want you to know

when my time comes
forget the wrong that i've done
help me leave behind some
reasons to be missed
and don't resent me
and when you're feeling empty
keep me in your memory
leave out all the rest
leave out all the rest

don't be afraid
i've taking my beating
i've shared what I've made
i'm strong on the surface
not all the way through
i've never been perfect
but neither have you
so if you're asking me I want you to know

when my time comes
forget the wrong that I've done
help me leave behind some
reasons to be missed
and don't resent me
and when you're feeling empty
keep me in your memory
leave out all the rest
leave out all the rest

forgetting
all the hurt inside you learned to hide so well
pretending
someone else can come and save me from myself
i can't be who you are

when my time comes
forget the wrong that I've done
help me leave behind some
reasons to be missed
and don't resent me
and when you're feeling empty
keep me in your memory
leave out all the rest
leave out all the rest

forgetting
all the hurt inside you learned to hide so well
pretending
someone else can come and save me from myself
i can't be who you are
i can't be who you are

wow. O.O

bit of overexposure in the upper left. but, ya know, the sun will do that... :D

so

beautiful.


i love the amazing amount of detail in your photographs, and this is not even close to an exception. beautiful textures, flowing together naturally throughout the image. i love the reflections in the water, caught that very well. awesome composition, i love that you used the content of image to frame itself at the bottom. and i don't even have words for the clouds. just..... wow. :D

Rather nice... I thought of a crop down but the flawed over exposure at the top only emphasises the beauty below... read my journal...

The other day I... uh, no, that wasn't me.

thanks hun. glad you like it. i actually cropped a lot of the overexposure out of the original. the one thing i like better about point and shoot cameras is that they can get detail that was just completely lost here. that's about the only thing i miss though

all the ways you wish you could be,
that's me.
i look like you wanna look,
i fuck like you wanna fuck,
i am smart, capable,
and most importantly,
i am free in all the ways that you are not.

eh, i'm really iffy on point and shoot. maybe they could for you, but mine always looked flat in comparison to photos taken with manual cameras. metering for this light situation is effing difficult, so it's really not surprising that there's overexposure.

i try to balance it by finding a meter that leans more toward properly exposing the darker parts, but not whiting out the lights entirely, then i can burn in photoshop. i doubt that would really work well for something like this though. i miss clouds. :( we don't have seasons here, just SUMMER and winter. no fall or spring, and barely enough rain and cold to call it winter. it's ok, soon i'll be in mecca. :D
