ill considered outdoor environments?

There is this decorative thing that seems to come out that resonates from some ancient review of my work... such good taste.. I wrangle these things from a process that is so dirty, so non-elegant No one accuses me of good taste when I am covered in slurry, smell of copper dust, and burnt wax... And my nails... ? And the skin discolorations from little burns here and there... see, It is not going very well, and immediately I am this whining female with broken nails. I wanted to stop at the mud flats in South Jersey, but the tide was wrong, the light was wrong.. and even the nastiest little bog looked elegant.
Tomorrow afternoon I will take them to the landfill nearby and see if I can do something there.
But the idea of lying in the garbage to get the right angle is a bad one... I am going to have to ask for help, someone to help me lift them and adjust them to get the right light. And what made me think I could shoot without a tripod? I am rushing this.. It should evolve at its own rate. I am projecting my needs on them and they are already out of control.. I will have to wait. My dream of them was better in the middle of the winter when bare purplish brown vines and snow, rooted leaves were everywhere.
I need the shots for a show proposal, so I will have to do a pristine thing (where you can see the piece ... and maybe I will find some place to shoot them on my way to Massachusetts. I should probably make friends with someone who has a much better camera in any case. Along flat grey rock in Maine would be nice or a lobster pool.
