Confluence
I titled this piece ‘Confluence’ because to me, it appears that many elements of the
photograph converge together: flowing, dripping streams of water; sunlight
that also appears to flow; the wet concrete and even the parallel lines of the
wooden bench steps. It was taken at California State University Amphitheater in
San Jose, CA in 1985; after a late afternoon rainstorm when the light was golden and the wooden seats and concrete were wet and saturated and reflecting a delicious gradation of colors in magenta, blue, and a pinkish kind of gold.
