Portrait: Honorable Mention 2020 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This image was shot on 35mm Acros 100 film ,
There's a certain quietness that the sea gives you, and when it gives it to you, you notice some things that are undeniable.
You notice that everything is moving all the time. Some are dancing, some are slowly slithering, some are skittering and some are twisting their way chaotically. Some things you can see, like clouds. Some things you can see in translation, like leaves moving in the direction the wind blows it. Some things you can't see at all, as a connection between two people. It's a free flow, some things move forward, some move about, some move on. Something especially beautiful happens when one thing moves something else. Like fingers wrapping tresses of hair into braids. Moving here is deliberate. It is creation. Like this, we are constantly moving, animated and alive. Living is moving, a sweet, sweet tension. A natural sway with the earth, the wind, the slowly revolving moon. Something is always moving something else. Words move people, the tides are moved my the moon, boats are moved by rushing tides. Blood moves through tired veins, making them throb. Eyes sift from sight to sight. Neurons move in acrobatic shapes. The whole world is a swaying dance. We are constantly creating.
