Snowflakes and volcano ash, sticking to skin and lens, helps give this collection a silvery tone from long ago, when expectations from pictures were more about stories than crisp representation. The flaws in the world are so often edited out of the picture! When Blue works with models, he is always begging them to pose without makeup, without zits or pimples covered, without their best angles showing, because then he can write his poetry to cover or augment their blemishes. These shots of Abbi Hendrix were taken in the Arctic Circle when she and Blue collaborated on the movie "Assassin 62."
