  1. damn, that’s an awesome photo! capturing the hat falling is really powerful and unique as well.

  2. Came across this today while in deep despair; so for the passion depicted above by two not caught in anything but the moment, and all of us struggling to realize there is nothing to fix, no where to go, nothing to do – and only then are we qualified to participate in an authentic, non-harming way, here is a link to a newer discussion on beauty and feminism:

    The Beauty Myth Revisited http://www.kenwilber.com/blog/show/496

    “There is a distinct voice emerging from these few feminists that speaks to the need to reopen the forum and invite fresh perspectives on beauty. As Nancy Etcoff reiterates, “Beauty is not going anywhere. The idea that beauty is unimportant or a cultural construct is the real beauty myth. We have to understand beauty, or we will always be enslaved by it.” Redefining beauty from an Integral standpoint—one that situates beauty in an AQAL matrix of quadrants, levels, lines, states, and types [Integral Theory Diagram] —can help feminism disentangle from its exclusive attachment to postmodernism and bring light and fresh air to an often painful and delicate subject for the emerging feminist to ponder.”
