Valley view in black and white, Rockhound State Park, Deming NM, February 20, 2008
To continue this little experimental series of versions of this photo, here's one in black and white. I think I like the sepia from yesterday better - it seems more in keeping with the natural desert hues. See the original one in color on the February 20th page.

Politics and the English Language
....Political language -- and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists -- is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind. One cannot change this all in a moment, but one can at least change one's own habits, and from time to time one can even, if one jeers loudly enough, send some worn-out and useless phrase -- some jackboot, Achilles' heel, hotbed, melting pot, acid test, veritable inferno, or other lump of verbal refuse -- into the dustbin, where it belongs.
