Begin

I puzzled over what to name this photo blog for quite a while. What I decided on is what is written on Untitled (photoback #14) from Tammy Rae Carland's Photoback project. The ghostly reversal of the image shows faintly through the back of the print, and you can make out a woman with her head turned away from the camera, watching a child. I want to take photos when the photo-op has ended and everyone around me has stopped looking, and is no longer aware of being looked at. I want to be acutely aware of seeing when my surroundings are not expecting to be seen anymore.

    I love the name and totally agree - letting subjects prep allows some of the authenticity to escape. Who wants a robot instead of a real dog?
