Raptors & Remnants

"Hello love, for you I have so many words. But I, I forget where we were." Ben Howard "And in the end we were made to be apart, like separate chambers of the human heart." Linkin Park "So fly on. Ride through. Maybe one day, I'll fly next to you." Coldplay #BenHoward #LinkinPark #Coldplay #lyrics #photography #iphoneography #zoolake #southafrica #VSCO #vscosouthafrica #flyon

Reflecting in the studio. And no, this doesn't mean I'm a photographer now. #recording #studio #canon #photography #reflection

We welcome @brook_flowers to the @weareclimatecontrol family! Really looking forward to making music & good memories with you in the ranks. Special thanks to @andrebadenhorst for being awesome & slaying it with these shots. #ClimateControlBand #2015 #photoshoot #newmusic

I've been buying the @rocksound magazines since issue #86 back in 2006, and haven't missed any since. Feeling pretty old grabbing #200. #RockSound #WorshipAndTributes #magazine #collection #VSCO

Verdict: Had a pretty damn good time! Pleasantly surprised with what they did. Graphics & action sequences are impressive. Definitely doesn't top the first film, but super enjoyable nonetheless. #JurassicWorld #movie #VSCO

What is the value of a life measured by? How many smiles you've created? How many people remember you? How many days you've ambled around upon the earth? Something so confusing & out of our grasp can surely not be quantifiable by any man-made measurements. What meaning or value is there to the way one says their final words The way one breathes their final breath With a sigh of pain Or anger Or relief Staring into the abyss Or someone's eyes Waving goodbye one final time to the past What value is there to a soul Full of all the knowledge and experience reaped Tainted by love received & hate mulled over Aged like a fine wine And eventually departing to somewhere that nobody left behind Can find What value is there to the remnants Of all that you were & will become once gone? Does the value belong to you? Or to those thinking this? To those staring hard ahead, into the abyss Trying to see what you now see Breaking with you, as you, like a phoenix Rise into the next & take on a new form.

R.I.P. Rex. You one-eyed wonder. Love you always.

I'll be releasing my new acoustic single #SeeYouAround on the 14th of May. Here's the single artwork. Can't wait to get this out! Photo by Dustin Gaffke. #RaptorsAndRemnants #acoustic #DustinGaffke #newmusic #artwork
