From Douglas Coupland’s Souvenir of Canada. “Will these vast refrigerated stones one day hold modern cities and societies? Corner malls with a Lenscrafters and a Baskin Robbins?”"

    what a haunting photograph. [ refrigerated stones] i totally love it when you post scenery. you really have an” eye” for the mystical and spiritual sense of landscape. . i dont know if your aware of that or not.
    Im a landscape painter [ oil on canvas] so when i see something that is of such power it really moves me. Even some of your building pics are touching.
    i can FEEL everything of your perspepcitve of form and light you do when you post.. . [ thats one reason i check your blog]. As and artist im fasinated with your sense of perspective.. its really powerful.
    any way.that was probably way to much information for ya, and you probably couldnt care less..
    . BUT! gald your still posting.. i REALLY enjoy your blog for no other reason we live at opposite ends on the UNIVERSE, and its always great to see some one elses perspective. .
    ALSO..
    what ever happened to that project where you were growin vegatables with artificial sunlight spectrum?? anything come of that ?
    it was a while back.. by the way .. did that 20 dollar LUNCH come with a MARTINI?????? for that price it should have. :)
    thanks for sharing!!!!!!!

    Hey Saatvic,

    The vegetables are doing okay — with 24 hour sunlight there is not much need for the artificial lamp anymore!

    I gave some away, and the oters are slowly developing.
