I realized that I’d had this same dream many times before. Then I knew why everything had seemed so familiar. We weren’t strangers to the sea; it had been our home, too. And deep down, we remember." <br />

I walked past a gallery while in Paia, Maui the other week, and saw some work by the <a href="http://www.c3submerged.com/fineartphotography_item.asp?id=45" target="_blank">Cesere Brothers</a>. Most of them are vivid with an fun, vibrant feel, but THIS one. Gah! This is what I dream of shooting. Someday when I can invest into pieces of art for my walls, this one's going up.<br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Found this gem while looking through Vimeo's staff pick videos. She says:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><i><br />There are some things in this world that everyone deserves to experience with their own eyes. I headed to Alaska in February with the hope of catching a glimpse of the Northern Lights with mine. That glimpse turned into an extravaganza...a party in the sky, and I was an onlooker, a face in the crowd...awestruck, mesmerized, feeling like the luckiest girl in the world. Night after night I was captivated by bright and colorful lights dancing wistfully above me; a graceful representation of the light in my soul. These were enchanted nights like I've never experienced. And while my camera captured a play-by-play of the spectacle, I could be found dog sledding through snow-covered forests, relaxing by the fire in a toasty cabin, or simply laying down in the snow and drifting into the dance.<br /><br />This was the most amazing trip of my life so far...and here it is, summarized in under 3 minutes. This is my first time time lapse film, so it means a lot that you're here, reading this, stepping into a very special piece of my past. <br />Thank you. x<br /><br />Photography & Production by AlexisCoram<br /><a href="http://alexiscoram.smugmug.com/Landscape/Alaska">AlexisCoram.SmugMug.com/Landscape/Alaska</a><br /><a href="http://facebook.com/AlexisCoram1">Facebook.com/AlexisCoram1</a></i></span><br />

You do not have to be good.</div>

You do not have to walk on your knees</div>

For a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.</div>

You only have to let the soft animal of your body</div>

love what it loves.</div>

Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,</div>

I wish I could have been at Crater Lake when the northern lights hit a few days ago. It's one of the most beautiful things you could ever watch, and I can never get enough.

From the man behind the magic above:<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<i>"I drove to Crater Lake National Park on the night of May 31, 2013 to photograph the Milky Way rising above the rim. I’ve waited months for the roads to open and spring storms to pass, so I could spend a solitude night with the stars. Near 11pm, I was staring upward towards a clear night sky when suddenly, without warning, an unmistakable faint glow of the aurora borealis began erupting in front of me. I quickly packed up my gear, hiked down to my truck, and sped to a north facing location. With adrenaline pumping, I raced to the edge of the caldera, set up a time-lapse sequence, and watched the northern lights dance until sunrise. The moon rose around 2am and blanketed the surrounding landscape with a faint glow, adding depth and texture to the shot.

I just found out that <a href="http://www.thealbumleaf.com/" target="_blank">The Album Leaf</a> is launching a new EP in 3 weeks, which is making me ridiculously happy. They've been creating some of my favorite music for years (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0cXDXriN0w" target="_blank">this</a> song in particular), and I can't wait to have the new album in my ears. You can snag a free downloadable sneak peek <a href="http://inyourspeakers.com/content/news/176-album-leaf-announce-forthcoming-ep-forwardreturn-08282012" target="_blank">here</a>, or listen to it below.<br />

I've been blogging more often over at my <a href="http://www.corinnekrogh.com/blog/2012/06/thursday-week-iii/">photography blog</a>, so that's where you can find me these days. I just picked up some polaroid film and shot these this morning with TBR, and I'm totally hooked. Film it is. Hope you all are doing great. xo<br />

<br /><br>This makes me want to run away to Joshua Tree to feel some warmth in my bones. This winter is getting long. I pretty sure the happy light I bought was a rip off and I've been editing so many long days in front of my computer I feel like my brain is literally fried. Once we get my car fixed I think I'm going to treat myself to a day spent somewhere other than in my house. A girls trip to Joshua Tree may be just the right ticket to cure the winter blues.Cori Jessyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18231169835179668852noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990016350780586644.post-78221908740320512372012-02-14T10:07:00.000-08:002012-02-14T10:07:16.343-08:00Happy Valentines Day<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Band members Phil Moore (vocals, guitar) and Beth Tacular (accordion, vocals) suffered a rift in their romantic relationship, which subsequently resulted in a yearlong dissolution of the band. During that time, they experienced the trials of illness and loneliness before finally reuniting both personally and creatively.</span><br />

In a six-minute documentary on the making of the album, produced by Creato Destructo, Beth and Phil chronicle the struggles that brought them back around to the musical process and how their experiences shaped the tone of the EP. Of the process, Beth says, 'We wanted to make the album as beautiful as we can and have it contain all of the darkness that we have in our minds on a daily basis...and have it sort of contain that but also have it contain all the amazingness and beauty and wonder that we have and try to make the wonder win.'

Our friends just posted this on facebook this morning. Apparently a company called <a href="http://www.dynamicpet.net/products-page/dog-bones-treats/real-ham-bone/">Dynamic Pet Products</a> are selling bones that have been killing dogs by splintering and ripping into the intestines causing blockage. This has been going on since 2007. You can read the horror stories here on <a href="http://www.consumeraffairs.com/pets/dynamic_pet.html">Consumer Affairs</a>. Please spread the word, and most importantly, never feed your pup this product. Here's to hoping Jack dog will pull through alright.<br />
<br />
From our friends:<br />
<br />
<i><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;">Yesterday Abby and I gave Jack (our Dog) a bone made by Dynamic Pets called a Real Ham Bone. Jack has eaten many real bones before and he's never had any type of problem with them. About 5 - 6 hours after giving him the bone he got really sick. He was obviously uncomfortable and appeared to be very gaggy. Jack is kind of a gaggy dog as those of you that know him well know. Jack had to go out </span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;">several times last night. This has happened before so I didn't think anything of it. At 5:30 am Abby and I got up to go running. Jack wasn't in the house and he wasn't answering when we called him outside. Abby and I live in a remote wooded area and Jack has never run away before so we just let him out when he needs to use the bathroom. We spent 1.5 hours looking for him. Finally, Abby decided to drive down the road looking for him in the car. Abby found him about a half mile from our house on the side of the road. He had dug a hole under some brush and was sitting there looking horrible. We called the vet to see if there was anything we could do to help him from home. Anyway, long-story-short, we ended up taking him to the vet. He has a blockage in his intestinal track and he needed to stay at the vet for the day on an I.V. The doctor sounds optimistic that he's going to pull through. As this was happening this morning Abby and I read several reports of other people's dogs dieing from ingesting Dynamic Pets Real Ham Bones. I have included a link below to just a few consumer reports as well as a website devoted to getting these bastards shut down. Please don't feed your dog any products from this company and please re-post this to spread the word about this product.<br />

The FDA said pet owners can report any health problems their dogs experience with Dynamic Pet Products chew bones or treats to <a href="http://www.fda.gov/Safety/ReportaProblem/ConsumerComplaintCoordinators/default.htm">the agencys Consumer Complaint Coordinator</a> in their region. So please tweet, email, fb share, contact the FDA, and do something to help stop this!Cori Jessyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18231169835179668852noreply@blogger.com11
