it didn’t occur to me until i had put this collage together that, despite all the vibrant color, this is really a still life. everything in the photo is dead. but around here, it’s starting to look like spring, and all of the dead-looking branches in the woods are swelling with buds about to burst into greens and reds. so i can’t help but see this photo as full of life.

there are women who crave a perfectly set diamond, a lexus suv, a pair of louboutins, the 16th arrondissement, and a louis vuitton drawstring bag. i’ll take sea urchin spines from a beach on the sea of cortez, thank you. no, i mean it. thank you @springfinnandco.
