S16R2622webSig.jpg

I might shout at the Fuji but I knew I could just think "sepulchral" at the front end to get the shot I wanted out at the back end.

Palettes: yes, deliberately placed and cable-tied.As other objects around are "meaningful" arrangements like stylised rubbish bags, I guess the Cunning Theme (partly at least) is the jingle of Common Purpose buzzwords: sustainable, transform, global warming, eugenic reduction of population typologically similar to the organic and green "Volk" movement of 19th century Germany.. (oops, sorry)

I'm afraid I see whitened tombs.
Also, why is it we see rubbish as Something To Recycle? It was never thus.
Rubbish is dirty, unclean and fit for burning ...or at least is in scriptural terms: Gehenna was not a recycling plant, it was where dead stuff got sent and didn't come back:

This means Big Problem for a humanity who self-identifies as recyclable: we're not. Now, efficient separating of waste from good, that IS the thing.

The sad tomblike structure of stone here, seemingly emerging from rubbished wood of the cross. But, it was always the throwing of the wood into the water that activated the life so that the iron axehead would float: the cross lifted Jesus up in the same manner and by the same means as the wood raised the axehead for Elisha.

A wrecked cross ain't what it's about, it's about the body that died on the cross and that wasn't there afterwards.
"Whose body?"

That, detective, is the correct question.

Eyup Mr Ledge!
(Have a wander round when you're there: it's just a ... piece of cod that passes all understanding...)

Is this after a delivery of fresh believers, or just ready for the last trump?
