Andy and the Sea

Made up of 5 different pictures. The ship was in Portsmouth harbor as was the lighthouse. Andy was sitting on the cliff on Monhegan Island and I added the two side shots. Took a long time combining them all.

The Interrupted Moment
A View of Virginia Woolf's Novels
Lucio P. Ruotolo
Throughout Virginia Woolf's life and fiction, interruptions arouse inventive impulses, and such disorienting moments constitute, in the author's view, a key aspect of Woolf's experimental intention. To remain open to the shock of unmediated experience, what Woolf calls its "anarchy and newness," is to recognize and celebrate the random diversity of modern life. Those of her characters who allow the chaotic intrusion of events or people to reshape expectations emerge as her most creative heroines. Those who voice distaste for interruption, and succumb to a protective impulse to close themselves off, invariably fall back into postures of self-supporting insularity.
In widening perception, the impact of discontinuity occasions a more communal view of art and society - a shift from "I" to "we." Woolf's recurring impulse to break derived sequences of art and politics reveals a growing critique of something more fundamental than either patriarchal hierarchy or what Leonard Woolf describes as "bourgeois Victorianism." In a manner of anarchism, she comes to question those presumptions that underlie the theory of governance itself. Central to all her thinking is the revelation of interruption, heralding change, and the growing expectation that society is on the verge of radical transformation.
The author studies each novel in turn, showing how the issues that motivated Woolf as a creative writer gradually developed in complexity - from The Voyage Out and its attempt to cultivate the art of doing nothing to Between the Acts and its vision of a egalitarian society where each new interruption emerges with a promise of renewal.
Lucio P. Routolo is Professor of English at Stanford University, and the author of Six Existential Heros: The Politics of Faith and the editor of Virginia Woolf's Freshwater: A Play.

Pigeon Point
image
Pigeon Point Light Station is a lighthouse built in 1871 to guide ships on the Pacific coast of California. It is one of the tallest lighthouses in the United States. It is still an active Coast Guard aid to navigation. Pigeon Point Light Station is located on the coastal highway (State Route 1), 5 miles (8 km) south of Pescadero, California. The 115-foot (35 m), white masonry tower, resembles the typical New England structure. Because of its location and ready access from the main highway, Pigeon Point entertains a large number of public visitors.
