Squares In Color - One


Abby commented recently on her blog that the people who have appeared in these images, have been unnamed, mysterious. Actually, what she said was ...

"Sometimes, we post these entries and people want to know more. I know I read others' blogs and feel that way sometimes. What happened to that shrubbery Jerry crashed into? What is Buddha cooking for the meditation retreaters? Who shaved Interstellar Lass's husband's head? And then there's g - who are those people in his photos?!"

And Presence recently sent me a link to the the photos of Marc Adamus on Photo.Net. His pictures don't have any people at all. There are so many ways to do photography.

If you are interested, the link to Marc's story is here:

And the link to some of his work is here:

Very stunning pictures. His goal is to make you go Wow! And I think he has achieved his goal. My goal is a little different.

And my goal when I started this blog was to show some of the pictures that have tagged along with me, in this journey through life. Or images I have just made. I like to think that these images tell a story. And that the story changes depending upon who is looking at the picture.

Jana has been very good at capturing some of the possible stories, but everyone who sees these images is free to contruct or imagine their own. I'm not sure it would be helpful to know who the people are. In the case of today's image, I don't know. They were part of the beach and the boat and the setting sun, on the day that all of our paths crossed.

So please, you don't need to leave a comment, but take some time to imagine your own story here. If you feel like sharing it, that would be fine too.

Little girl in front,"Mom has gotten so slow since we got my little brother!I guess I will have to be the leader in our adventures. I sure am glad mom thought of taking us to Maine. It is so different from Florida. I couldn't believe it when she said we didn't have to watch out for aligators. And those rocks, wow!!! I want to take them back to Florida with us. They make great pirate ships and I can even hide behind them from my stupid brother."
