I am just beginning to understand a whole group of photographs that I took while visiting my family in June. There is a level of beauty and intimacy in them that I have yet to fully process.
"I have perceiv'd that to be with those I like is enough,
To stop in company with the rest at evening is enough,
To be surrounded by beautiful, curious, breathing, laughing flesh is enough,
To pass among them or touch any one, or rest my arm ever so lightly
round his or her neck for a moment, what is this then?
I do not ask any more delight, I swim in it as in a sea."
- Walt Whitman
I look forward to viewing more.
