I have added photos to the blog (thank you for your help Erin). I have taken them while still shocked in disbelief that this is really happening, here, on the land I love so dearly. If "A picture is worth a thousand words," may these photos say all there is of raping the land and taking life so thoughtlessly, so ruthlessly.
All of these shots were taken during the week before the logging started, and in the time since the devastation began. I will remember their great beauty, in pictures, in my heart always.
Walking the woods in the weeks leading up to the logging, it was hard to imagine what would come, how the landscape would truly be demolished. I shot their pictures, blue stripes signifying they would be taken, and sang and prayed to warn them of the coming destruction. I honor them now, the blue striped warriors of the woods, I will never forget what has happened here.
