Elliot Erwitt, Venezia, 1965
I really like this photo. I see some from the tumblr community in the stillness of the frames. Beauty, one dimensional representations of being. Still, a mere facade, a single moment frozen in time by the play of light and shadow.
I see many use these tiny snippets to formulate opinions. Stir emotions with blinkered imagination. Even with no personality encapsulated or projected many form opinions based on physical response to appearance. I see attributes given to these frozen, faceless moments, such as kindness, goodness, honesty. Really? Life is in perpetual motion, as are humans.
Those who radiate the light of true beauty are real posters, people unafraid to express themselves truthfully and honestly. People who reveal themselves warts and all.
My opinion voiced.
