The pictures are already there, some impose themselves, I only have to press the button.
The impact of a landscape can be as strong as that of a single leaf hit by a ray of sunlight, which I give the same attention as when dealing with the problem of a sunrise.
There is always the camera in between me and the moment, like the glass pane of a window. Behind it I am observing a scene taking place. And then like a curtain in front of a stage, that I try to raise carefully, I observe the event and set sail to steal a glance behind the scenes.
A house, a stone, a memory, the nuance of an annecdote, like a substance that unfolds beyond the narrative.
Other pictures I need to trace, mute against the phenomena, because speech makes us feel the fugitive nature of the moment.
Pictures emerge from personal encounters, gestures, the movement of a shadow on a wall, the prelude to a story, a huge orchestra in the colour range of a rainbow or only a moment, transient like the flutter of a birds wing, the sounds of silence on the edge of the stage.
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments, dear Brigitte ... all images were taken in the Gulf Islands just across the Georgia Strait (now called Salish Sea) from Vancouver. Was there sailing just last week for 10 days - sailed to Alaska a few years ago (SLR camera then, and have never posted any of those photos :-(((( .. too much work, I guess).
wish you a fine rest of the week,
Adele
Thank you so much for all your generous comments, dear Brigitte - yes, except for the train murals all murals are on or on the corners of Commercial Drive (just a short walk from where I live) .... have never looked at them as closely as I do now after having photographed them.
Great to hear that you have memories of this area - not usually where tourists go !!
Wish you a fine week,
Adele
