I have an entire series of photos that are tagged with "this is how I feel right now." It was designed to be a clever quip to force people to really look at the photo or series. Since you bring it up in all seriousness, I can see how it is completely distasteful and disrespectful to the photo series and subject matter that is hitting home for a lot more viewers than I had originally expected. While I do appreciate the impact this series has had, it absolutely breaks my heart to even think about anyone ending their own life, so I'm dealing with that conundrum. I sincerely apologize for the way my misguided not-so-clever quip affected the series for you, and I will gladly remove it so that the series stands on its own. Thank you for pointing that out, and I am always sorry to hear about anyone's loss in life. Best to you.
Every image is a warning of that. I'm not going to give away the ending and reduce the impact of the series because we live in a bubble-gum, boo-hoo world where everything has a no-brainer warning label ... with all due respect.
Id est, this isn't real. It's a creative series. Had I come across someone hanging in the woods, and I was fucked up enough to document it and publish it, it should have a warning.

ReplyDeleteIf so, I urge you to seek qualified help. A colleague ended his life 10 years ago, and it still echoes.

DeleteFirst image should be a warning for disturbing content involving suicide.
