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.

  1. I 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. :)

    1. Tried to reply twice, but those posts don't show up.

      I'm trying to get a copy of the pic.
