See the Light to Come...(20/8)

Seeing is believing, but sometimes it depends on how we look at things…
I like taking photos. The more I practise capturing moving images with my camera, the more I find an alternative way to interpret time and life in the surrounding. The advanced technology in photography enables us to take a picture simply with one click. It becomes too easy sometimes that action with camera simply replaces part of the sensational system of mankind to external happenings and stimulation. People may think that, ‘no worry, I have taken a photo for memory’, but how much memory do they keep just because they take a photo and somehow neglect the basic element to really ‘look at’ things carefully. The same phenomenon can probably occur in certain devastating humanitarian-related affairs when the actual happening is easily prejudiced by a few cliché photos that may not have fully captured the reality. Bearing in mind the tendency to be negligent, it becomes more of a technique to ‘define’ the photography objects and to ‘select’ the means of interpretation about the objects. Here I find the fun to be a camera person…
…As I see the peace and the beauty
…The hope and the future
...people and the life
…The globe of movement
…The totality of the universe
I spent a week in Warsaw this summer and went to Cmentarze Powazkowskie, a cemetery in the north-western part of Warsaw, to visit the grave of a well respected Polish film director, Krzysztof Kieslowski. The cemetery visit inspired me much to contemplate and appreciate life, and some of the ‘nature morte’ snapshots can be found here...
