Moments




My favorite time to photograph someone is when their totally immersed in something they love. Today, my Mum was playing a Casio. She plays the piano and has for years. She has been unable to sit up at the piano, so our neighbor kindly let us use her Casio. Mum started playing today. The moment I saw her strike the first key, my feet headed toward my room to grab my camera. Call it instinct. I shot quite a few frames. Trying to tell a story. To express what I saw. To translate or communicate to others through my photography what was happening. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words, so might as well let it do the talking. It would take me forever to try and explain what a photograph can say in ' a moment'.
