Vanishing


Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again.
Henri Cartier-Bresson

Wishing you all a wonderful Sunday.

I love the quote. Often I wonder if my camera is distracting me from the present moment, but then I realize, I couldn't be more in the moment.

the words you selected to pair with this photo are so appropriate. I'll never forget the first time I saw one of his photos - I was a very young girl, and it left a lasting impression. happy week to you Randy.

I can't believe fall is almost over. It vanishes (love your title!) too quickly.
