Parke Life
This image wasn’t planned, but it wasn’t accidental either.
Just a moment on the street. People passing through a patch of brightness. Ordinary, on the surface, one figure in a white coat catching the light just enough to stand apart.
There’s no trick to it, just the way I tend to see and shoot. Slightly out of focus, letting edges fall away, letting things become less certain. Not quite abstract, but not fully real either.
The more I looked at it, the less it felt like a scene and the more like an impression. Something half-remembered. Familiar, but just out of reach.
Parke Life felt like the right title. A quiet nod to Trent Parke’s White Man.
But in the end, it’s just how the world looked to me in that moment, slightly off, and not entirely explainable.

That's a terrible photo. People try to make up for the lack of photographic skill by taking blurry photos, and then calling it "art." It's just a poor-quality image. I'm not saying this to be a troll. I'm giving you pure honesty. Not much of that around these days. I hope you take the time to actually learn photography. You can do it, IF you learn.
