As a photographer, I am always interested in unique lighting, reflections or light refracting that catches my eye. I don't try to analyze it too much, but is this heightened awareness coming from me being in school and in a learning atmosphere ? Or have I always been like this, looking for angles converging, leading lines, colors that are naturally fitting, meshing in to each other, form that has no sense to it but looks intriguing. As I may have stated in the past, I "zone out" a lot. This includes, but not limited to, staring at objects for a long period of time. Sometimes it's the way a bug is struggling to walk through blades of grass. Sometimes its even how the wind is blowing things about. I could be observing the way someone walks with a limp and sometimes a story elopes out out of my thoughts on possible story lines of their life. Why the limp? Why do I stare? I have eyes after all, why is is wrong that I stare at an obese man wiggle across the sidewalk coming out of Chili's? Reverse the roll. Is it wrong in the opposite perspective? After all, I don't want to harm anyone with my eyes, I just like to analyze. It's a simple concept of people watching. At some point I feel like my eyes are appropriating what they project. Rods and cones in the eye send thousands of messages in syncopation to to a much bigger biological mechanism.
I am finding this whole blog thing to be a great vessel for me. It is helping me record things that I wouldn't have necessarily recorded or even talked about to anyone. Not even a pen or a piece of paper for that matter to be used. What a concept, right? Telling people your thoughts and feelings. At times, sharing feelings can be the hardest things to do.
