Just a feeling

I tried to shoot a feeling today — the mood that’s been lingering around all week, an ambiguous deep pensiveness brought on by the interactions with somewhat outcasts members of society and also by my neighbour’s sudden death. It lead me to ponder my own fortunate existence, at the same time fleeting, struggling and unstruggling, a certain bittersweet that cannot be felt without an appreciation of the beauties of life.

On approaching the shoot… the mind strives to empty itself to be void of words, lest photography gets defined by the spoken language and starts to take on a rigid form.

Vague as it might get, photography as a visual language perhaps can communicate its nuances if we just let the feels enter and let the heart do the thinking.
