Just saw some Stieglitz at SFMOMA this afternoon. Their "Equivalent"s were very small, and hardly representational; they looked even more cosmic than yours here. Needless to say, I was feeling them. Makes me wish I could emulsify some clouds (any clouds) instead of digitize them...

'The cloud had drawn up to a halt

to leave the sea a gram less salt.
It poured down on no rock or ship
but just upon its own dark shape,

combing out its rain like wool,
like a girl her hair above a pool;
or else (all I could do was sit

before the scene, and worry it)
the sea reached up invisibly
to milk the ache out of the sky.

That's from Don Paterson latest by the way...
