Brussels a photographic black and white Diptych.

Taken many years ago, edited the other day. I’m enjoying doing the occasional photographic diptych: it isn’t so much about creating a sequence that illustrates the passage of time but more about bringing photographs together that question  the assumptions we make when watching or photographing a scene.

The question here is what does the observer assume about the relationship between the man,the boy and the woman. Is there a relation ? If so what is its nature ? Why is she behind them ? The possibilities are infinite.

Cemetery and River, what are the fish eating ? River Sis, south of France. Digital. D200. One of the first digital images that convinced me that digital could produce a similar facture than analogue.
Nice print in a fairly big size.

Tristesse
In the middle of fields, I chanced upon this cemetery.I let some of the stones blend because it felt right. Every time I find such a place, and there are many in my native country, I feel sad . I hope one day…you know what I mean.
