A proud gentleman out for a stroll

I was out for a stroll and found myself with company mirroring me. It was a rare moment that photographers live for. A moment that we can’t quite believe is happening. Photography reactivates us to make us aware again of the world around us in a way that we never were before. We emerge from perpetual sleep like Sleeping Beauty and see again the life of the world around us. Perhaps I might have appreciated this moment before photography. Perhaps I might have walked past, either not noticing or noticing yet thinking much of it. But after photography it’s easier to see the real world again.
