I arrived in Lethbridge. Calling my daughter, we coordinated our meeting. She had work to complete for an assignment due in one of her university classes the following day. I would explore southwestern Alberta with my cameras and meet her that evening for a meal at the Firestone Restaurant. Here is a morning image, a winter image along a range of wind turbines between Fort MacLeod and Cardston – a silhouette.
Quote to Consider / Inspire – “Ultimately – or at the limit – in order to see a photograph well, it is best to look away or close your eyes. ‘The necessary condition for an image is sight,’ Janouch told Kafka; and Kafka smiled and replied: ‘We photograph things in order to drive them out of our minds. My stories are a way of shutting my eyes (Roland Barthes, Camera Lucida: Reflections on Photography).’”
Listening to: Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris with ‘Red Staggering,’ ‘Rollin’ On’, ‘Love and Happiness’ and ‘Right Now’ from their All that Roadrunning album.
