A Twisted Sense of Empathy
Again this one of the many shots I took while down at the Reservoir near Wernigerode. I've always wanted to capture a shot such as this, that darker sinister sense of imagery.
But that said, it gave me such a sense of the way of the common human consciousness, or should I say lack thereof, of just how ambiguous we have become to the word "Empathy", we are so powerful in togetherness, I know it sounds trite and awkward and cheesy, even downright annoying to hear it, but when we are wowed by an enormous explosion in Libya and forget dozens of people are dead and thousands injured caused no doubt deliberately by a dark force; when we are aware of the plight of the starving Yemenis as well the desperation of the Palestinians, it reminds of a lyric by Chris Rea from the single The Road to Hell...
"And the perverted fear of violence, chokes a smile on ever face"
I truly hope it is paved with good intentions.
Mid week, we're almost there folks and so as always thank you! :)
