Framing
I've decided I'm going to start drawing attention to random photos I've taken (both for your pleasure and my inspiration) by sporadically plunking them here and writing a little about what they bring to mind.
This one I called "Rust to frame the sky" back in 2008 when I took it on a day out in Hachiman (north of Sapporo). When I glimpsed at this recently I started thinking about perception and how we often think we see it all, when really our views are encased and delineated, yet evolving. Sometimes some of the rusty bits fall away and we get a better view; other times obstructions get in the way.
At this angle, there's a little poky bit that sticks up and looks like a tiny human on the edge of the world.

Hey Jaime!!!
ReplyDeleteIt was really great talking to you on the bus the other day! Its funny how a chance encounter, a couple words, a smile, can lead to so much more. I wish our conversation could have lasted longer, you are such an interesting person! Anyways, I'd love it if you dropped me a line, my email is 7cr9@queensu.ca.
