"Photographs are perhaps the most mysterious of all the objects that make up, and thicken, the environment we recognize as modern. Photographs really are experience captured, and the camera is the ideal arm of consciousness in its acquisitive mood." (Sontag)
This quote caught my attention because in a miraculous way photographs are the most convincing, complicated, working objects that have power to create scenes in the most mysterious ways. The camera itself is our own eyes in our hands. Whether it was taken on purpose or by accident the camera took it. It snapped our experience, From the things that we love, the people we love, the scenes that we love, and ourselves. These pictures along what I am saying right now are experiences of mine that were captured. To the people that I grew up with and made accomplishments with, to the place where I free my mind, to the person that I think about when I wake up and go to sleep. These are memories. My moments.
