nicky and i met up with cleopatra at 8:00 pm. (she'd started two hours earlier with mass transit to get to my part of athens.) we drove a couple of hours to get to lake vouliagmeni. we were disappointed to see so many lights around the lake (last time i'd been, years ago, it was much darker). still, we found a decently dark spot with a good view towards the north star, set up and started shooting. suddenly a very bright light turned on behind us and stayed on, ruining our shoot, so we gave up on the spot and doubled back for another. wound up on the primary beach, which was dark because everybody'd gone home, but didn't have a good view that included the north star. decided to go ahead with it anyway. shot from 12-2 or thereabouts. fully charged battery inexplicably died, requiring me to change batteries, creating an interruption in trails. continued. tried shooting some panoramas. afterwards they got silly and started taking pictures with a green laserlight. i liked it and joined in. drove back, took cleopatra to her house, then headed back to ours. arrived at 6:00 am. slept all morning. processed as best i could.
whew.

no one's going to help you bubby.
from the movie bad boy bubby
'you see, no one's going to help you bubby, because there isn't anybody out there to do it. no one. we're all just complicated arrangements of atoms and subatomic particles - we don't live. but our atoms do move about in such a way as to give us identity and consciousness. we don't die; our atoms just rearrange themselves. there is no god. there can be no god; it's ridiculous to think in terms of a superior being. an inferior being, maybe, because we, we who don't even exist, we arrange our lives with more order and harmony than god ever arranged the earth. we measure; we plot; we create wonderful new things. we are the architects of our own existence. what a lunatic concept to bow down before a god who slaughters millions of innocent children, slowly and agonizingly starves them to death, beats them, tortures them, rejects them. what folly to even think that we should not insult such a god, damn him, think him out of existence. it is our duty to think god out of existence. it is our duty to insult him. fuck you, god! strike me down if you dare, you tyrant, you non-existent fraud! it is the duty of all human beings to think god out of existence. then we have a future. because then - and only then - do we take full responsibility for who we are. and that's what you must do, bubby: think god out of existence; take responsibility for who you are.'
