Catching the Bus

Catching the bus to my course and looking out the window at what is happening around me. I hop off the bus and walk past shops looking in the windows. Items all arranged to look pretty, to entice you to want more, to come in and buy. The use of colour, lines that our eyes follow, the textures and emotions that are invoked. I have an epiphany “We see the world through a lens” this is what Annie Lebowitz said when I watched the 6 part documentary on her. Talking about photography she said that she sees the world through her lens, yet we all do. It might be the car window, or a pair of glasses, we are always seeing through something.

life is about observing that which is out there.
