Another one . . .another thought or two
This one is a monday and because of the rainy season the Wild Cam at Pete's Pond in Botswanna is going to be shut down the 14th which is tomorrow? I'll miss it. I even spent an hour today watching the wind and rain play with the water there.
No one was minding the store, and the camera, on automatic was wending it's way back and forth across dirty green water which now and then added another leaf or twig to its surface. The riples reflected light. The rain splashes showed as crystals which came and went too suddenly for me to capture.
The simplicity of the scene and the mechanical bopping sound which was probibly the camera motor was hypnotic for me. I snapped captures whenever something disturbed the wateer in an interesting way. It was simple but as I looked I began to see the detail and the variations. Some were quite striking.
If I know a person long enough and let myself pay attention I begin to see the details and variations there, as well as the themes which make up a given personality. I find this fascinating. . . It's not an intellectual thing with me, I can relate this way more on an emotional level, with empathy enjoying their joys as well as comforting them with their sorrows. Intimacy is the reward. I'm an INTIMACY JUNKY. . .
