Pare Everything Down To Almost Nothing

then cut the rest

and you’ve got

the poem

I’m trying to write.

Two Lights, Old Saybrook, CT

January 14, 2020

The quality of timelessness is something I gravitate to in my photography: I’m always happy to find a scene that appears to be one from the distant past, and/or a locale far far away. Perhaps it’s the universality I seek, or the presumed simplicity of a different era.

This one, a dock with two lights, conjures up medieval Japan and/or an Akira Kurosawa film, one of my all time favorite movie directors, going back to undergraduate days and a Kurosawa film festival. My favorite of his is still probably The Seven Samurai.

We’re now in the back end of winter here in northern New England, and signs of spring are beginning to emerge. One of my favorites is a more expansive dusk; a month ago, it came and went quickly, now it just lingers, not wanting to miss a thing.

Nope, just bare ground here in Old Saybrook at the end of January 2019; this photo was taken in 2011, 6-7 miles to the northwest.
