Response to Just Another Street Shot

from tom meyer (twm@mindspring.com)
This photograph is different than most on this forum, in that it has almost nothing to do with photography, I doubt the woman even knew she was being photographed, and it looks like it was made somewhere between intuition and a twitch. The image was made with no regard for photo history, for conventional wisdom pertinent to the definative technique, even for making a definate statement. It seems like the bland visual noise that occurs in a modern human's head as they walk down a crowded city street thinking of perhaps nothing but a grey impatience for "this" to stop, and something "else" to begin. No expectations, just keepin' at it, with no thought of a larger picture... just "now here", and getting "there soon". Eloquent, but bleak.

John, you don't have to like art for it to be good. You should, however, like it if you intend to buy it. This is free... enjoy... t
