I am so impressed by your brilliant capture of light and shadows. It first glance I see gorgeous bold images of dark and light and quickly move on to a thrill with each detail I recognize (power lines, weeds, hanging cloths, rips in fabric). For some reason the details are very meaningful to me. I find the combination of the bold black and white and the visible details to be very powerful. I have so many favorites this time I won't even try to pick them out. It has been such a treat to spend time with your essay and I am sure I will be back many more times.

Comment by LevT:
beautiful photography, every photo stands firmly on its own. But in a series like this, we, the viewers, have an additional pleasure of tracing the stated theme in each of them. Like a good jazz improvisation, where every solo takes the theme and moves it in a new direction, sometimes very far, only to bring it back and pass it on.

Comment by ubique:
More radical than the earlier essay 'Indifferent Sun'. This time the images seem like they are a deck of cards used for prophesy, like tarot cards. Probably prompted by the crop and the framing, but there's still something more symbolic in this set than was the case in 'Indifferent Sun.' Tarot-style cards was the very first thought I had this time; never occurred to me last time.

Some images have a strange ambivalence, where looked at one way the darkness is background, and then another way it's reversed and the light is the background. I think some are very interesting exercises in perception and negative space. The truck is a great example, with the 'city skyline' above it. But there's some element of that flip-flop perception in nearly all of them.

Always absorbing, and the interest rises with the increasing uncertainty. The last 3 are my favourites. No, last 4. Actually, it's the last 6. But to tell the whole truth and nothing but, the only ones that don't stab me with a sharp thrill are 3 & 6; the two featuring human figures. The rest is PMD (Photos of Mass Delight). Thank you.
