A Thousand Reasons: blue jeans

"The sharp knife of a short life
I've had just enough time..."

- "If I Die Young" The Band Perry

I see Beauty in many things. And like the ghosts that only speak to you if you notice them, they tell me wondrous tales. With my camera and my thoughts, I captured these as faithfully as I can to share with you. And by doing so, they gave me the reasons. And though the thousand reasons may not all be sweet and some indeed bitter; they are still reasons to live. Come to think about it, that is Life, isn't it?

A Photographer’s Eyes

I've had just enough time to... see with a photographer's eye

Taken outside my office one bright sunny morning...

Straw hat, blue jean

White line, long shadows

Tennis shoes, white welt

Fallen leaf, asphalt road

Long sleeves, cotton gloves

A broom in one hand

Attap spine

A dustpan in the other

Plastic light

A bright scarf of red and gold

Draped over firm shoulder

A daily scene

A moment in time

A slice of Life

A photographer’s eyes

The Pretty Milk Maid of Marjeyoun

I've had just enough to... make friend with the milk maid's cow

Taken in the Muslim section of the town of Marjeyoun, a Lebanese town bordering Israel.

A rusty door opens with a reluctant creak

Who will emerge from its shadowy depth?

A large straw hat, light blue jeans and leather boots

A milk maid with her hand on her hips

And a smile bigger than her pretty lips

But where is the cow that follows the maid?

Strange I did not see it till my face was licked.
