a visit with Serge

This post has been moved and incorporated into my story about Serge titled “Temple of the Heart’s Imagination”, on my history site Up from the Deep.
Dancing on Thin Ice
To the poet, to the philosopher, to the saint, all things are friendly and sacred, all events profitable, all days holy, all men divine. —R.W. Emerson
sounds like you have a really nice relationshiip with this serge…maybe i can meet him someday…like the herman hesse glass bead game references…had the audiobook out a while back – leary big on the book, named his castalia group after it…up from holllywood in ’57 after work there as an actor – would like to hear stories about that time…
Love that first photo with his hands partially covering his face. Wonderful story, too.
Thanks, Julie. I’d like to do a whole show about Serge sometime in the not-too-distant future, although I haven’t yet thought of a good venue for it. Any ideas about that?
Wow, what a glowing character Serge is! Altogether your shots make a strong portrait! I love unposed photos of people; they capture the essence of them. And what a role model: I hope I can be that alive-looking when I am old woman, wearing purple with a red hat.
