Ето моята тайна. Много е проста: истински се вижда само със сърцето. Същественото е невидимо за очите.

punctum

"punctum" is Latin word which literally means "point"

 

It is used in technical sense for fotos —

where very special feature in the foto

catches the eye...

 

The origin of my use of "punctum"

is taken from Roland Barthes' book

Camera Lucida, Reflections on Photography

(trans. Richard Howard) Publ. Hill and Wang, New York

ISBN 0-374-52134-4

 

The term "punctum" first appears on p.27

So! I have learned to look at photographs carefully

(in as high resolution as possible)

to see if I can find punctum :)

 

Fotos often have many puncta. Hence to note them tells "everyone" that I find them interesting.

 

I do not do it often; hence punctum fotos

are very good for such things...

and so I like them and note them :)
