John Keats - When I have Fears that I may Cease to Be
March 4th 2008 08:45
Poetry of John Keats (1795-1821)
When I have Fears that I may Cease to Be
When I have fears that I may cease to be
Before my pen has glean'd my teeming brain,
Before high-piled books, in charactery,
Hold like rich garners the full ripen'd grain;
Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance,
And think that I may never live to trace
Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance;
And when I feel, fair creature of an hour,
That I shall never look upon thee more,
Never have relish in the faery power
Of unreflecting love;--then on the shore
Of the wide world I stand alone, and think
Till love and fame to nothingness do sink.

An aside: Are you going to post any photo stuff? I am trying to figure out whether or not to use a large format camera to photograph my paintings and then digitize the negative to produce life size prints of my work. Or try to use 12m digital camera to do the work normally done locally with scanners (old Epson's). Wanna blog it?

If you're doing it at no cost, try out different options, you can always preview before you post and that gives ample scope for testing, deleting, substituting etc or even putting in three or more different versions to see how they compare, then when you've decided what to do, just eliminate the others and create with the 'chosen' one.
I hope this is helpful.

Test with one and/or consult your local digital shop or ring around making enquiries, the larger you make it the more colour you lose, that's another problem.
You probably need a professional print job, that's what I have used, not cheap. You also need to consider the paper they will be printed on.
Not easy for a first or even second class job.
Is this helpful or are you ahead of me.
