APRENDIENDO A LEER (con mamá)

...?

This image has no much sense outside the context of the "MADRE SOLA" series.

Thank you.

No, sorry not to agree, but they do have a sense Sweid, they convey atmosphere and feeling and they strongly reinforce the story line.

 

Of course I have followed you work for quite a while and so one can imagine that I am biased, but it is a bias based on experience of your past oeuvre and  I truly know of no one else that can extract so much meaning from the shadows and a silhouette.

 

Just a fraction of light on the figure to the right fills her face with expression, tenderness and love. The child is attentive and respectful, fully conscious of the moment that she shares in gaining knowledge of our adult life, her future and our past. This is photography and poetry at its best.

 

postscriptum:  it is amazing, I have even seen you make old stone buildings talk .. 

You make my day, because I have a special emotional relationship with this creatures, then, you know what happen with our objectivity as photographers when one is capturing an image of our beloved ones, a false sense of quality because the light arriving to our eyes is not real in the traditional physic concept.

 

The light of the heart is the most personal force in our life, but when some one else with a critical sight unpolluted by the personal feelings from 14.000 kilometers of distance tell me that this work is good enough then I am happily surprised.

 

Muchas gracias John!

 

estoy maravillado con tus fotos, visite Buenos Aires este pasado Verano, y he descubierto mucho mas de lo que podia imaginarme. Conecto tu creatividad y magistral sensibilidad de tu habilidad para ser un animal en constante evolución! Yo también. Esta foto es mi favorita de todas las que e visto de tu fabulosa creatividad.Un par de abrazos.

Muchas gracias por tus elogiosas palabras, me avergüenzo un poco pues yo mismo no me considero un buen fotógrafo sino un dilettante, un entusiasta. La próxima vez que visites la Argentina debes conocer la Patagonia, el Sur, es bastante lejos de BA, pero te encontrarás con un país muy diferente de la Gran Capital, te sorprenderás y te harás más preguntas todavía.

Desde ya eres bienvenido. Un saludo cordial!
