"Resurrection Chapel: Sigurd Lewerentz"
Woodlands Cemetery, Stockholm
Remember this chapel? It feels surreal, amazing even, to be walking and touching and feeling the building, after analyzing and building a model out of it. The narrow walk towards the chapel's entrance lined with pine-trees was the only good photo I could get. There is the danger of photographs being cheap and valueless compared to floor etchings one makes by setting pencil and paper to the ground, and the mere enjoyment of a space. Why fall over yourself to document something you hardly know?
The light streaming in from the window was so beautiful, it hurt.

SO ROMANCE DARELL! You should be a romance-genre book writer=D
nuh uh, eww, romance-genre books just have really bad sex scenes.
what are the wrong connotations, darell?
Nuh uh, June's right. God knows I didn't spend most of my childhood laughing at the badly-written sex scenes ;)
Are you talking about the contemporary love-based "romantic" or the 18th-century "Romantic"? The first one to me's always carried this damsel-in-distress mentality (weak-willed, easily swayed, passive). Artistic Romanticism though- that I'm really attracted to...
18th-cent.: different-often sentimental-perspective on life; not ohmygoshthatguy'ssocharmingi'mgoingtomarryhimandhe'sgiongtolovemeforever-romantic.
EXACTLY.
