Things as they are…

A gate is always a promise.

Perhaps a promise of bigger things to come.

Something here.

A hint of bigger things there…

And something may blossom.

All it takes is a bit of introspection…

A possible vision here…

And a revision there.
This is the last of four related pieces, after Mundane Objects, Common Things, and Everyday Things.
Thanks for reading!

I am a poet and an educator. I have come to realise in recent years that the act of writing poetry has trained my mind to be always on the prowl for everyday moments that might be suitable material for my writing.
Hence, I turn to photography in order to record some of these moments. I soon discover that the photographs I am taking, using film rangefinder cameras which are more discreet and hence suitable to the task at hand, are in the tradition of street photography.
In search of poetry, I have become a street photographer.
What can Hong Kong teach me about street photography, and what can street photography teach me about Hong Kong?
This blog seeks to address that question.

“A gate is always a promise”–very nice.
I absolutely love the pale graininess in this piece; strangely, it feels a bit different from the first three posts of this collection… yes perhaps, the paler, the better 🙂
