A quiet eve, an autumn eve, days before the dawn of winter, a #stunday - the fading sun painting lucid light and shadow, reviving a close to thousand year old tale of life and death, a struggle forever set in stone (romanesque relief, St. Pierre, Angoulême, October 2021) #photography #EastCoastKin

Exactly! The fog really creates a new layer, (combined with the imaginary movement of the motorcycle) a narrative - I can almost hear the engine, then dissipate in the fog. Great shot 👍 (Thanks for having a look at my site - though I haven't updated it in a year or so 🙈 so much to write 😁)

Yes! You are absolutely right 🌞 I approached by narrow, dark and shadowed alleys, quite a different view than the main facade in all its shining glory - like the underbelly, hidden parts, small doors, passageways, walls upon walls upon walls: whispering stones

comment to a #haiku by Basho (or Issa?) I read the day before yesterday, it tells of a crying, abandoned child he met on the road - pressing on, he just left some bread. The image haunted me last night. Heartbreaking. the weight of tiny fates - small hands in the dark #poetrycommunity #poetry
