Weekly Photo Challenge: Gone, But Never Forgotten

Everything is temporary.

This week’s photo challenge is Gone, But Never Forgotten.

Show us something that is lost, but not forgotten.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Converge

Photos are visual spaces where shapes and lines, objects, and people come together. The palm of her hand flies up to the sky.

Along the way, they also force the concrete and the abstract to converge: objects and landscapes are still themselves, yet already a little more (and a little less) than what I’d initially seen in them.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Extra, Extra

BUZZ…This week’s WordPress Photo Challenge asks us to share a photograph with something extra; something with unexpected detail that makes that image all the more special.

For me … the unexpected detail is in this man’s expression.

The sadness embedded in his concentration. This is a photograph of my friend “Buzz” writing poetry outside a coffee shop in Brighton, England.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Inside

Where do we go when we die on the inside?
Do we rupture our attachment to family? Our daily bread?
Our ability to mimic breath?
Jean-Michel Basquiat died of a heroin overdose at the age of 27 in 1988.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Perspective

Over the years we age and change our perspective.
Through the looking glass.

Weekly Photo Challenge: The Sign Says… We’re French!

In France I came across this sign:

Provisional bar and occasional hotel.

I wonder if this establishment accepts reservations?

Weekly Photo Challenge: Background | Neighborhood Art

In New York I photographed a man engulfed by spray paint.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Escape | Broken Shell

In my left hand I am holding a broken shell.

In the foreground the figure of a man is a blur.

What is his purpose? Why is he unclear?

Is he looking for escape routes above the moving sea?

Am I beside him?

Weekly Photo Challenge: Pattern | Neglect

The subject of this week’s photo challenge is patterns.  In a new post specifically created for this challenge, share a picture which means PATTERN to you! 

The exterior of a house in Sierra Leone, West Africa. My heart is drawn to the pattern of neglect, the pattern of deterioration.

Photo Challenge: Above | Feather

In a new post specifically created for this challenge, share a picture which means FROM ABOVE to you!

This feather fell from above and rested a while in my garden.
