It's often simply about the moment and realizing it and doing one's utmost to capture it.
Feeling lucky enough to have a camera at hand!
The adrenalin rushing, the activity, the emotion, the rush of the moment!
Like running a race! getting completely caught-up in the motion, the action. Trying to capture something. The stimulation of it all.
The doing of something bold, brash and artsy! The knowing it is somehow also right at the dege what you are doing.
Being an artist and ' going for it ', whatever 'it ' might be?!?
Like running a race, like capturing something that is ordinarily glimpsed but not recorded for future study or enjoyment.
Being just the slight bit naughty in one's artistic pursuit which is also sexual and invasive to some degree as well.
Sure, it's all ' out there ', to be visually enjoyed, to be attractive, to be enjoyed, but to be recorded for posterity? That's the question? Where's the line? When is it crossed? What makes it all okay or all wrong?!?
I don't have the answers and am ready to delete this if it offends or hurts anyone. But in today's ' anonymous-world-at;large ' I hope it just brings joy and conversation and appreciation. Because for me this young lady;s outfit does work, it does appeal, it does get our attention, certainly mine. I hope she will not mind as she is young and beautiful and she is making a trendy artistic statement with her outfit, and being an artist and a male I appreciate it all. Bravo.
So, here you have it! I am running the race to capture the moment, the fluidity, the youth and the sex appeal, the fashion statement ' of-THE-THIS-SPECIFIC-moment ' : what do you all think? Is she successful, do you like it, does it work? Do you approve? Is it too ' out there ', or is it perfectly okay?
Was I the only one noticing? I was perhaps the only one bold and brash enough to record it?
I liked it. I liked it a lot.
Got my blood rushing, may adrenalin was pumping.
As a male and as an artist I was glad to be a witness to all of this. I did talk to her, help her some, as well as her boyfriend, too. Little did they know? Is that best? Is that okay? Should I have said something at the time?
At the time I had no idea what I had or was capturing? It was all just a chance to record something, so I jumped at the chance. I know some of you would not, will not approve : and will say that I crossed the line.
I am sorry for that. But seeing what I have I definitely feel that any negatives have been outweighed by the many positives of these pictures, of this quick-and-fleeting moment in time.
Cheers and enjoy, I sure do. What a look, what a statement, what youth, what femininity, what fun and excitement, pure joy in color, form pattern, youth and freshness! Bravo young lady, tahnks for sharing yourself and your style and your sense of yourself and sense of fashion with us on this weekend day in Washington D.C. On every level I enjoyed it, still do looking at these pictures which I hope, if you ever see this will find it more flattering than not?!? The verdict is still out.
