[ f/11 1/60 70mm ISO 400 ]
when suddenly
you are there
larger than life
like you just stepped out
of a story
or a comic book
leaving me to wonder
why now
why at this moment
with my camera trained
on the sign on the door
you suddenly appear
and affirm that
a photograph can
just as easily capture
a fantasy
as it records
a concrete scene

ReplyDelete" unaware of what your presence means to me..."
ReplyDeletethat is it isn't it?
someone who passes us on the street and we acknowledge somehow
or they acknowledge us, it make community in an environmental that
has become so repressed.
always a great pleasure to come here Mario.

ReplyDelete"a photograph can just as easily capture a fantasy as it records a concrete scene"
ReplyDeleteThis is so true, and something I think more people need to remember when looking at/talking about photography.
