RE: Only Memories Cling To This Washing Line
Such a lovely, quiet, meditative shot, and I love the story to go with it. It's interesting- today I too was thinking about my grandmother. Rummaging through an old hard drive looking for a particular shot, I stumbled across old photos of her that I took a few years ago... not long before her health took a rapid decline and she passed. It's amazing how something like that can stop you in your tracks. Photographs are so important.... as a great portrait photographer likes so say... "Exist in photographs.". Cheers!
That's totally how it goes – the photo carries with it a whole string of stories. One iteration of my photo business was 'The Memory Jars'. I loved the double meaning – that photos both carry and jar one's memory. I've been gently considering reviving that name, as an offshoot of my primary work. • Lovely to know we were both steeping in grandmother love this weekend. ;)
