Envy
Other photographers. Man. This photo is by Colette Lukassen. She lives in the Netherlands, of course. I am interested in other people's reaction to it. She really captured something here. It puts you on edge, maybe, or it is just a summer snapshot. Much, if not most, of photography is access. Good photography, I mean. The memorable ones. You can't photograph it if you aren't there. I don't have access to anything anymore. Just the house, the car, some lawn furniture. If I don't find something interesting to photograph soon. . . .
I've said it before.
I resent people with access who do not make use of it. Not resent, really. It is more a jealous resentment.
Give me your children, your criminals, your miscreants. Something. Anything.
Agghhhhhhh.
My hat is off to Ms. Lukassen, of course.

ReplyDeleteI love it. And when I saw it I said "Wow that's a photo C.S. would have loved to have taken."
It doesn't make me feel on edge. It makes me feel happy. Like a good summer memory or something. I refuse to "Epsteinize" everything.
They could be family - or best friends growing up. I hope. I don't want to think of it as "being posed."
Well it sounds like you had a simply divine vacation btw. Good for you. :)
Tried to reply twice, but those posts don't show up.
DeleteI'm trying to get a copy of the pic.
