when i created my sleeping bears picture i thought it would start a phase of explicit photo manipulation, instead it started a phase of photo+typography. i had never added text to any of my photos before, but i felt like it enhanced the photo on that occasion. well i'm at it again here, and i have at least one more which i'll probably put up next week. i think it's an effect, like tilt-shifting, which i should use with restraint but every now and then i like to think it fits. along with my photo titles, the text i've been superimposing onto photos are usually taken from song lyrics. this was an exception, at least i thought it was until a quick look on google revealed that this line was from the song marvellous by the lightning seeds. i probably haven't heard that tune in around 15 years, so i can't claim that it was the true source, but listening to it again was a jangly, poppy trip down memory lane.

here's the original
