The photography of stone petroglyphs/pictographs

A Longing For Oneness


In the landscape of life,
there must be a sufficient distance,
to reveal the grandest of vistas.


Seasons of suffering provide
understanding for the heart to see,
that all things long for oneness.

That's what the rocks say.

This is a (medium Format film Mamiya 6 50mm lens) photograph I took many years ago. Cloud cover at mid day is the optimal light for photographing film images of petroglyph, pictograph dry rock surfaces, especially in deep/narrow canyons, because film cameras do not lie, nor can one manipulate/demand them to do so. The differing angles of the rock surfaces, make a decent image of even the most vibrant petroglyphs difficult/or impossible, even using your hat, or an umbrella to adjust the light/shade. If your plan to photograph petroglyphs, your phone is best, or a digital camera.

Taro Fields at Hanalei


What is good in a man life on a high place, and sees afar, into another time. A spirit being he is, endowed with abilities to create beauty where there was darkness.  His dominion be the colors of light, where the call of a voice so true permeates a scattering of all things_ longing for oneness. 

But, upon this hill he is met by relentless temptation to allow himself vanity and material possession, which he cannot own_ not even the slightest little thing. Still, he struggles, and in his weakness all he knows is what he wants, Glory. His great power is weakened by the number of the days he is compromised, his understanding lost to this exact degree, and in these days the meaning of all words in his and his children's world is forever changed as they believe they are, what they are not.
