47.52 > What does this all mean?
Almost every week an image appears in my mind that carries with it no explanation or narrative. It just flies on in there and takes up residence, poking away at my patience with a pointy stick until I shoot it. This is one of those images.
Because these pictures often land without any hint of meaning I've gotten quite good (I think) at wrapping a story round the picture. This photo has me beat though.
I think there may have been some vague idea about taming the camera, or wondering if I'll ever master the camera, or - or - or ... it might even be some sort of dumb staring contest for all I know.
Anyways, it's a bit lame, exactly as I imagined it but without all the cool bits. I had a better idea but this picture demanded to be week 47 so here it is. You can't argue with the pictures, there's a reason this insinuated itself into my conscious after all. I just don't know what it is. It's all part of the process surrounding the serendipitous organic happenstance style of photography.
Maybe that's the point of this photo? It's just me and my camera, waiting for whatever random idea happens to hit me in the head that week. We sit, we wait, we recieve communication, we shoot.
Strobist info: SB700 camera right at 1/16 power through an umbrella. Fired by CLS.
EXIF Info: Aperture: f2.5 // Shutter: 1/200 // ISO: 100 // Focal length: 50mm
