Mind games
I've been thinking recently about how the camera image often shows us more than we thought we'd originally seen.
In this scene for example, I remember being captivated by the cool reflections and verdant green shades as I cycled, but I'm not sure I'd noticed the fall of the light in the trees above the bridge on the right, and the shade on the left forming a near perfect pyramid with the water line. Or perhaps subconsciously it had been noted.
We create our own realities.
When I see something and take a photo, that image is informed by my feelings, my state of mind at the time and there's a certain momentum to that, a storyline.
The photo shows a break in that momentum and tells it's own story as a scene preserved in time and space.
I later passed moored houseboats and wondered about that pace of life, the choice to live at a quieter, slower pace must surely bring subtle changes to how we perceive everything.
