Read the stories, no photos to see. Thoughts?

Only read a few, AMAZING imagination! Good source of ideas, perhaps a good use for those of us who get into a photag block every now and again!?!?!

Thanks Karen!

when i read through the descriptions of his non-photos, i imagine them to be amazing images. as though they were taken with top equipment, perfect clarity and dof, vivid colors. Also the images don't have any misc clutter and unwanted items. the angle of view and expressions of the subjects are amazing, creating one of kind shots.

...that's probably why he doesn't have the pictures to go along with the descriptions.

No, it's because he couldn't or didn't want to take the picture in that moment. Like the persimmon rolling under his scooter at just the right moment. Like the soldier daring him with a glare to lift his camera...

Some things just can't, or shouldn't be put into photographic terms, but some things wouldn't even translate. The written word is still the most imaginative medium to me.

"Nor is this a picture of thirty-five other things from that morning, all less than exceptional but no less memorable, thanks to a camera I believed to be loaded with film but was instead loaded with air -- no wonder the winder worked so well. Though now, the idea of going out for a morning of photographing people with an unloaded camera seems like a kind of street theater itself."

I've done that!
