the between
[Winston-Salem, NC]
ask any decent photographer about his craft and he'll mention the 'moments in between.' he's referring to the events that occur when the ordinary kid with a camera wouldn't shoot. moving to and fro... gestures in conversation... a natural smile. because we all know 'say cheese' doesn't really make an image.
but what comes in between the between?
an authentic yawn meant for the private space... a distracted gaze in conversation. the moments that make us human.
the image above is the first in a 'scientific' study of these moments... removing the noise from a typical photo-journalistic shoot to concentrate on the fine detail of the moments elimated from polite memory. these are the moments the soul is raw and becomes most open for exploration.
