"My Biggest Heart"

Paul Nicklen

Paul Nicklen
"In spring, as the ice pack recedes, narwhals push into cracks and holes as they migrate. Their compact size (13 to 16 feet [four to five meters] long) and lack of dorsal fins aid travel beneath the ice. The annual migration also brings them within range of human hunters."

Youre just another part of me . .




Dont point your finger
Not dangerous
This is our planet
Youre one of us

Were sendin out

A major love
And this is our
Message to you
(message to you)
The planets are linin up
Were bringin brighter days
Theyre all in line
Waitin for you
Cant you see . . .?
Youre just another part of me
Another part of me . .

Were takin over
This is the truth, baby
Another part of me

Post-Its

My office's internet security is so annoyingly tight that I can only get access to the internet and my email accounts through my iphone. Which is probably why, in the course of one particularly long and boring day at the office, I found myself experimenting with the iphone's incredibly convenient ability to take photographs and instantly send them to people.

I might have just been making a virtue out of a necessity, but I found it really satisfying to scribble out a letter on a set of tiny post-its and assemble them on my desk.
