genitals, and if White would have let it be known that he had taken the photographs he would have been exposed as a homosexual and subjected to harassment and loss of his job. He mounted and bound two copies of the photos into small, hand-made books, gave one to Murphy and kept the other copy for himself. Many of the photos in this sequence were never published during his lifetime, and the complete sequence was exhibited for the first time only in 2014 at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Sequence 11 / The Young Man as Mystic (1955) Sequence 13 / Return to the Bud (1959) Sequence 16 / The Sound of One Hand (1960) Sequence 17 / Out of My love for You I Will Try to Give You Back Yourself (1963) Slow Dance (1965). White stepped outside of his usual methods in creating this sequence, which consists of 80 color slides intended to be seen on dual projectors.

At second glance it can reach us." "Be still with yourself until the object of your attention affirms your presence." "Camera and I have gotten into some eye pursuit of intensified consciousness." "Equivalency functions on the assumption that the following equation is factual: Photograph + Person Looking Mental Image." "In becoming a photographer I am only changing medium. The essential core of both verse and photography is poetry." My own place in this thing called "photography"? Lately it has come to my attention that perhaps I have a place in it, not entirely held by others. "One should not only photograph things for what they are but for what else they are." "When the photograph is a mirror of the man and the man is a mirror of the world, then Spirit might take over." "Everything has been photographed. Accept this. Photograph things better." "No matter how slow the film, Spirit always stands still long enough for the photographer It has chosen." See also List of LGBT people from Portland, Oregon Notes References Bunnell, Peter.
