Grant Shilling, Jim Christy, Oraf & Jorge Luís Borges

El jardín de senderos que se bifurcan

Some blogs almost write themselves. Here is an example of why. I received an email from a friend, Grant Shilling, I used to collaborate with (he was the writer and I was the photographer) for magazines and newspapers. It seems a friend of mine, also a writer, Jim Christy and who now lives in Toronto found my blog on Shilling. Which led to Christy to write… and…

Hey Alex,

Got an e-mail from Jim Christy the other day after he read your blog bit on me. Then I got the attached photo from Oraf which references said blog bit. So I thought I'd drop a line.
All is well here, family life good hope you are well.

Best

Grant


Photo by Oraf

All I can add to the above is a photograph of the very path I mention in my blog on Christy. The one that answered to Christy's question on what to do with a path that had two possible routes to take. The second picture here is by the tallest local photographer (and very artistic and art critic at that!) , Oraf.

Addendum: Your iphone photo reminds me of the old Yogi Berra chestnut: When you come to a fork in the road- take it!
