Looking Backward, Southern Utah
This is the corollary to blog 475. (Go ahead and read that post, I’ll wait here until you’re done.) You future projects could be in photographs you made in your past. We all have those photographs we see only when we get home. You know the one. It’s the one that you can’t remember making. We’re not talking about the bad photographs. You want to forget the ones you don't want to remember making. There's a vast difference between those type of photographs.
What I’m talking about is the great photograph you can’t remember making. The single image we can’t explain. The image we don’t recognize as one of our own. I call them square pegs because they don’t fit in the round holes of my photographic genres.
We all have them. They spring from our subconscious and come from that place that is close to our soul. These are photographs that are felt rather than thought out. They could be your future if you open your mind and heart and listen to them.
Ah yes, the mystery photos. I try to annotate mine but fall far behind. What was I thinking on that day? I guess it is part of the fun. I too enjoy rear view mirror photos.
Happy shooting.
