A photo is a secret about a secret

<p>Arthur in that picture, the lady's foot: from the dog's interest in the area of her foot do I surmise correctly that she stepped on a bug of some kind for the dog's sake?</p>

<p>Charles, I didn't stay around long enough to see if that was true. On the invisible side of her is the screen window that she was preparing to lift into place. That at least would keep some bugs out. </p>

<p>"A photo is a secret about a secret"</p>

<p>I will say a photograph is always going to be a mystery rather than a secret.</p>

<p>A secret is something someone knows and in the context of photography it is a misnomer.</p>

<p>A photograph is a moment in time with no before or no after....an object of the imagination of the viewer.</p>

<p>A convertible car sign on a canal path....a mystery...no secrets involved.</p><div></div>

[pnital]

<p>I wonder is this a mystery or a secret ?</p><div></div>

[Allen Herbert]

<p>A mystery to me, Pnina.</p>

<p>But perhaps you have found a secret within you and your photo...... but then it is a secret just for you.</p>

<p>Pray, do not tell, otherwise it will not be a secret anymore.</p>

[pnital]

<p>Allen,thanks for expressing your point of view, so it is better to keep it a mystery...;-))</p>

[Allen Herbert]

<p>"so it is better to keep it a mystery...;-))</p>

<p>Then it is your special secret and a mystery to us.....</p>

<p>But a lot of folks like to tell on a secret:)</p>
