isolation


where? a warm pot of chocolate in a french window? a forgotten crock in a miner's cabin? too white..the clues ambiguous..the window rain scared. the frame metal so not old... a new alone pot
but on the inside i know there are kids making there hands as nimble as possible polishing holes in fishing weights...piece work.
hopefully it is an electric kettle for warm tea to cheer the task in a room with metal air

view point


if i have my camera with me, i am more likely to see the beauty around me and also the details of the ordinary. one evening as i was walking to the cafeteria ...with my camera... i saw the sunlight reflecting through the wings of a small crowd of insects. they would have probably been unnoticable if the light had been different. the LIGHT makes many things beautiful and many things seeable.
