The Lotus

Out of the primordial mud sprung the likes the sad blue Lotus. Despite the beautiful form in the sludge nobody seemed to notice this forlorn lotus. One day the stars twinkled, and asked, “Dear beautiful thing, why are you so sad?” The Lotus responded “At last! A break from this exile. My situation is bad, for I am surrounded by nothing! A poor excuse for a wasteland for around me here there is just mud”. Twinkling a response the stars replied “Why, there could not be more around you! Surrounding you is everything the world could imagine, it just isn’t there yet.” (This lotus Believes really deep down that the mud is too brilliant to produce it’s humble self.)

“The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box.”

—Henri Cartier-Bresson

In 1878 Eadweard Muybridge photographed a horse named “Occident” in fast motion using a series of 12 stereoscopic cameras. The first experience successfully took place on June 11 at the Palo Alto farm in California. The cameras were arranged along a track parallel to the horse’s, and each of the camera shutters was controlled by a trip wire which was triggered by the horse’s hooves.

I’ll run my heart out for you,
Because running is what I love to do.
And all I ask in return, from you,
Is soft hands, and a voice kind and true.

—F. J. Burgess, opening lines to “The Racehorse”
