My DeclarationI am not harming anyone.

I am not brandishing a knife in a person's face, cocking a gun, or wiring an explosive ready to shatter somebody's life. I am not corrupting, drugging, or even torturing someone to death. If I am harming anyone, it is I that is being harmed mentally and emotionally, if not physically.

Yet, it seems I harm people by my very existence, by not being slit, sliced and slashed, shoved and suffocated into the mould they want me to be. Who and what I am... simply unacceptable. I find it difficult to understand how I am harming these people. I harm them by going 'out of my (and theirs, I'm sure) way' when this 'way' is me. I

Blind Bruised are my
eyes that squint on with
timid grace

I shot this in London at the Thames Festival, the same day I captured My Element.

This guy... heck, this guy was so awesome. I've got loads of pictures of him doing all sorts of expressions. What I found to be most profound was how still he remained, and not in a comfortable position either. Sometimes, he was bent over at odd angles and yet he kept utterly still.

It was a bit scary, actually.

This is a great photo. The subject is very interesting and your composition and depth of field works so well that despite not being in the centre, all the attention is drawn to him.

^3wyl Jan 27, 2013 Hobbyist Photographer

Thank you so much! It was a prime moment for capture.

~MrsSocrates Nov 4, 2012 Hobbyist Photographer

Oh! I've seen some people similar to this. Though this guy's paint looks much more well done than what I've seen elsewhere.

^3wyl Nov 5, 2012 Hobbyist Photographer

Oh yes, I do agree with you there!

Always fascinating, though.

This is.. So awesome XD I love his grin, and I wish people did these kinds of things around where I live. ; n ;
