pics & clips from a geezer with a camera
It is not uncommon for street photographers to get caught in the act of taking someone’s picture.
Often a person’s response is to apologetically duck and sheepishly look behind them.
Occasionally you get the return gaze of a fellow predator.

“There’s something happening here / But what it is ain’t exactly clear.” – FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH, by Buffalo Springfield
Sometimes a “slice of life” photo leaves us wondering what just happened the moment before, and what’s about to happen a moment later.
I like ambiguity like that, the kind that can draw us in and hold our attention a little longer.
Here are three of my street photographs, each of which seems to cry out for an explanatory title/caption.

This short poem by Rainer Maria Rilke suggests that what’s lost when everything is bathed in light is a sense of awe and wonder, and a phenomenon science can’t explain: Spirit.
