And it was the distractions in the background that actually helped me look at the statue - and to think about death, struggle (and comfort) to live and to leave this world. <br /><br />If you go back, I wonder what changes you'll make in your shots?Tab Calhounhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15269410669288222272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9351429.post-85399758203277839862009-07-07T16:35:23.306-05:002009-07-07T16:35:23.306-05:00I'm not an artist, but I know what I like!I'm not an artist, but I know what I like!pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17923358872986211342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9351429.post-20266553228113717932009-07-05T21:00:29.278-05:002009-07-05T21:00:29.278-05:00Well said Annie!Well said Annie!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11658952413441149677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9351429.post-63010026776777494782009-07-05T10:20:34.025-05:002009-07-05T10:20:34.025-05:00I think the background speaks in the photo.

In truth, I must admit to being drawn to the background, wondering what in the world was attached to those lockers; but, in reading your words, returned to discover that the hands, or so it seems to me, are really another person who is on hands and knees, pleading, maybe, with this one who ignores all and simply looks at the sky above.

I particularly like the first one because of the way the background "distractions" converge in the middle.<br /><br />MichDaisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07074990352248493598noreply@blogger.com
