MArr1A93: U know you are with the "r1t3 0n3" when you both "l0v3 mU51k", albeit differently.
Uncle Saf likes is pristine, full bodied & flawless.
Aunt13X prefers it loud, often and sincere.

When we met, I needed to dance to exercise, being a long haul trucker. Saf would come out with me, not to watch me dance, but to see how I behaved once alcohol got into me. He was used to the bad end of the stick, with the wr0n9 dAw9.

I just became happier, tactile and more fluid.

I was also used to leaving a problem, before I lost my temper, because nothing frightens me more, than the #rA933y3h1d3, getting out.

When our marriage ended, I would have been on the road again, if I'd had the feet to do it.... but sometimes, pain is a gift too.
(Just like my disease; without having it, I would never have found my 5p0u53!)

Without choosing to stay close in his orbit, I would not have been able to have this #Safehouse in which to recover, while listening to my memories, embedded in old music.

So, I stayed close to him, and before too long, I realized he was still the same unique, special creature, I fell in love with years ago.

AnD we were still doing what our rings held against us- Our Vows....

"Safe" "in My World" "In Your Keeping"....

Behind The Lens

Location

My spouse and I took a series of photos at our home- related to “Our Home”: “Tones Of Home”, “Reflections Of Home”, “Abstractions Of Home”.

Time

My spouse clicked the button- after understanding my visual objectives, he chose to shot in bright afternoon light.

Lighting

It was shot on top of black glass to enhance natural reflections without adding another light source. I am a fan of the shadowy aesthetic.

Equipment

Canon, I believe; it was some time ago.

Inspiration

When I first met my spouse- he was already fourteen years my senior, & dying from a similar disease.... but in a ten year, open relationship. I told him I did not seek such a relationship, but one bound beyond just one, simple lifetime. He had not even considered marriage before me; it wasn’t even legal yet. When someone can touch your soul- & not just your heart, or body- you WILL WANT to maintain such a feeling.... AlwAys. When I was little- I dreamt of Heaven.... I knew it was Heaven, because there was AlwAys- Someone Beside Me.... And the thought made me smile. True Love causes it’s members to smile- At the slightest thought of the absent opposite. I knew- If I asked my partner to marry me- I would bury him- In Time. Would you commit your heart, & soul to someone about to die? If True Love is Forever- then yes.... Every Time. I bestowed the first ring to my partner, as the last present, inside a series of presents- on his 50th birthday..... It was white gold Promise Ting- with a song inscribed, which was also my goal, for the remainder of his life: “Safe”. When we decided to take it to the alter, His wedding ring was inscribed with another favourite song: “In My World”. My ring was inscribed with an attitude song, to combine our sentiments: “In Your Keeping”. I chose the Green Lantern stylized ring, because Green is a Family name, & his favourite colour. (Strangely, the woman in the store, after I custom ordered it with an Emerald, said, “Afterwards you can always replace it with a diamond.)

Editing

I did pump up the colour saturation and exaggerate the chiaroscuro- as I am prone to do.

In my camera bag

Lately- my iPhone.

Feedback

A picture is just a snap shot of stuff- unless there is intent. This implies a meaning beyond the obvious. Some people think a ring is a display of wealth TO others- “Don’t Judge A Book By It’s Cover”.... the significance of our rings, lay under the band, against our skin. I took the time to write this synopsis because our vows- our rings are a tremendous source of power & strength to us. What objects give you a sense of reverence? The darker the image, the greater the intimacy.
