A rare insight in these very polarised days.<BR/>My own little immersion vs documentation story; Last year Comet McNaught was the big thing down here in the Antipodes, and friends and colleagues showed off brilliant photos. For some reason me and my girlfriend hadn't seen it yet ourselves. One evening I stayed behind at my local spot after a surf, waiting to see it appear in the SW sky, but after two hours nothing had happened. I drifted home hoping for tomorrow and went to bed. For some reason I woke up shortly before midnight and looked out the panorama window and there was this enormous milky swath across the sky - imagine holding a wine bottle upside down at arms length, about that big! <BR/>We sipped glasses of grappa and watched in wonder for hours. Took no photos but the moment is bottled forever.<BR/>Thanks for a very good blogParallel Universehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02453383728497618260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6775095067541421214.post-50038293992226032522008-02-22T10:09:00.000-08:002008-02-22T10:09:00.000-08:00thanks daniel! even though you couldn't see it, co...thanks daniel! even though you couldn't see it, could you feel it in subtle ways? could've been psychosomatic, or just coincidence, but towards the end of it i felt a hard to describe pulling sensation in my chest that left my chest area feeling a certain lightness with the bottom of my gut feeling slightly sea sick.<BR/><BR/>anyone else feel any physical effects from the eclipse?<BR/><BR/>danimal, yep, hard to go wrong, i guess. Either way, it's great to have the hard evidence of an experience, or a lasting, all be it subtley changing, memory of something experienced unhindered and free of gadgets— to be in a moment where you are tied to nothing but the moment itself. funny thing is, ever notice how photos like memories can change in one's perception of them over time as well?R.T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15188209687502291106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6775095067541421214.post-32865312710538132282008-02-22T08:52:00.000-08:002008-02-22T08:52:00.000-08:00"total immersion vs. documentation"I know exactly ..."total immersion vs. documentation"<BR/>I know exactly how you feel. I always grapple with this question when i am whipping out a camera for a shot. But when I get back home and have a little bit more than memories, actual physical documentation, I am always happy.Danimalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17512392757456302575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6775095067541421214.post-76829337426143817582008-02-22T07:59:00.000-08:002008-02-22T07:59:00.000-08:00Great shots!
