The Cypher, June edition

I've been back up north since I started writing the Cypher; some of the images I've used/will use are from the real locale where it takes place. It's been interesting re-examining this place, in view not just of my life and what that point in time meant to me, but the history of this place and what it might mean. Sometimes I think that my personal memories and inspirations for the Cypher are sort of hijacking what the area means, because surely it means something else to others. I also think that I don't mind sharing the strangeness and magic that I held for this place with others, or spinning a story out of it. PLaces change, and meanings differ. I think the Cypher is a record of a place and a time and one person's situation... and maybe that's okay.
