I came across a book on photography in a bookshop recently, the title of which I feel inspired by. It was called Speak Truth to Power. I can think of no other answer. It has the most confronting and amazing pictures.

Flickr is a great place, so many wonderful pictures and inspiring people. Where in the world would we be without it?

I travel through this night and by this light
to find upon the hill the unsought rose
that out of silence into silence grows;
and silence overtakes me at that sight.
(Judith Wright 1949)



The sky was apple-green,
The sky was green wine held up in the sun,
The moon was a golden petal between.

She opened her eyes, and green
They shone, clear like flowers undone,
For the first time, now for the first time seen.
(D.H Lawrence 1915)



And what were thou, and earth, and stars, and sea,
If to the human mind's imaginings
Silence and solitude were vacancy?
(Shelley 1816)
