If you spend a little time exploring this image you might start noticing how the blurred images of reality echo the sharp lines of cobalt blue.

So often I will capture an image because it just feels interesting. Later while editing I’m both surprised and delighted by the things I never saw.

I wonder how often a person looks at a scene, a painting, sculpture or just their immediate surrounds and loves what they see without consciously understanding why.

Here with my editing hat on I ponder that ‘why’. What is it, in an image, that commands my interest, my attention, my fascination?

When I am out and about, in some wilderness landscape, under the ocean, or in some marketplace, that ‘why’ never occurs to me. Like everyone else, I just enjoy what I see.
