"out beyond where the lifeguards liked"


A very fine story about an interesting life and some wonderful photographs can be found here at The Polaroids of Cowboy Poet.  It's an interesting look at creativity and compulsion, one that reminds me in some ways of the photographic genius of Saul Leiter and Vivian Maier.  The polaroid above shows the mother of Chris Earnshaw swimming at Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, farther out than the lifeguards had liked.
