“the devil pulls the strings which make us dance
we find delight in the most loathsome things
some furtherance of hell each new day brings
and yet we feel no horror in that rank advance”
– charles baudelaire
the devil inside
painted on a wall
rampaging, pillaging, corrupting
external terror
the darkness
in our hearts?

Photo 101 on WordPress had consequences.
One, there were others, was being invited to join Justine’s Eclectic Corner, a select group of bloggers, writers, poets, photographers and errr…me (yes, go figure)
So each week, a challenge is laid down.
The first week’s challenge was “guessing game”, the idea was that other members of the group should seek to guess the subject matter of a photo in the style of a “wrinkle”.
Many of the guesses came very close.
As you can see. Below and to the left.
