Moonrise over Rio Grande Cliffs, Caballo Lake State Park, NM, May 4, 2012

Practice, practice

This was taken the night of May 4, 2012, the night before the big moonrise of the year everyone was so eager to capture. Back on my post after that big night I indicated I hoped I got a few interesting shots of the moonrise and I'd like to think I did. Tomorrow I'll start posting a short series of my favorites here as I wander eastward toward Red Rock.

Sincerity Itself is Bullshit

As conscious beings, we exist only in response to other things, and we cannot know ourselves at all without knowing them. Moreover, there is nothing in theory, and certainly nothing in experience, to support the extraordinary judgement that it is the truth about himself that is the easiest for a person to know. Facts about ourselves are not peculiarly solid and resistant to skeptical dissolution. Our natures are, indeed, elusively insubstantial - notoriously less stable and less inherent than the natures of other things. And insofar as this is the case, sincerity itself is bullshit.

On Bullshit, Harry G. Frankfurt, pg 66
