Did you ever wonder if the person
in the puddle is real,
and you're just a reflection of him?

ReplyDeleteBrilliant as always. Loved Sylvia Path's work too. Yes, I have imagined if I was that littel boy in the puddle looking out at me--I would find it scary that there was nothing behind me but sky to fall into.

ReplyDeletelove your acrostic play!
wonderful photo and words - one of my favourites among all your great posts
ReplyDeleteWonderful photo indeed. My boy make a a great model. Any chance you would be willing to assign proper photo credit or maybe even ask if it is ok to use it in the first place? I am the original photographer and I must admit i get a bit bummed for photo usage when no permission was asked for.
