Albany Bulb

  • Albany Bulb
    These photographs are just a few I have taken over the last ten years at The Albany Bulb, also known as the Landfill, the Waterfront and just The Bulb. It is a place I feel passionate about. That much is obvious. There are many of us who believe that this piece of the much hyped Eastshore State Park should have been left untouched and unmanaged - because it is a unique example of what happens when a place naturally and organically self regulates. But the dogma of 'preservation' and 'conservation areas' 'resource protection', 'habitats' and 'liability' overrules all individual identity. They cannot leave anything untouched, un-designed. It is as if if they (the park planners) didn't make it, it has no value. Rules, guidelines, regulations, interpretive signage, fences, safety, sanctioned art - it leaves nothing to the imagination. That is what the landfill meant to us - a place of unlimited imagination.

Happy

Jill - As always, you are insightful & great fun to read. Forty years & still friends while making a transition this major...I salute them, too. (& I salute you for continuing to diss the so-called sacred tradition of marriage...)

much love, Hsppy

i've always wondered why endings make people question the whole thing. as if it was not "successful" if it ended. we don't say that when people (and pets) die. why when "marriages" end?
