Red had worked the edge sector for some time. He wondered if the slightest vibrations of passing vehicular monstrosities might in fact be the key, and he soon deduced that eventually he might just rattle himself free from the blackened industrial abys. 

Ever so slightly he rattled himself unnoticed for years… Ever closer… Closer… Closer…

He could smell the sweet sunshine breezes wrangling themselves inbetween the twisted crevaces… See the tips of mythic verde life strands flowing freedom as once told by the Iron Elders…

Longing with all his rustic might and with every weld of his battered being…

One day… he would know the truth… One day… he would bust out of the dark corrugated hell in a steely fury and scrap his way into the divine free-range light.

This image was shot along the beach of Muizenburg, South Africa. There are these amazing old changing rooms along the beach that just stand out like a technicolor painting. As I recall, I’d just batted off a curious baboon a few clicks down the road near Cape Point. Dreadful creatures…. especially when they’ve grabbed your camera bag. But, that’s another story. ;-)

While walking about a nearly deserted beach town in Mexico during the off season, I waited for medications to work on a traveling companion’s sickness. The sky was grey as a ghost and I really wanted to be home. Between the cold wind coming off the sea and and the off-and-ran rain, I walked looking for something to brighten my day. And then, I found this bit of colorful delight.
