Floating Ferry Heads by Dolly Salazar


One of the things that I enjoy about doing this blog is the explanations that photographers send along when they submit their photographs. I really love what Dolly Salazar had to say about her mystery submission: "The mystery is us. Me, stopping to snap this blurry portrait of two strangers on my way to finding a seat. Them, turning and nodding briefly at me before returning to their newspapers, no more conscious of the features of my face than I am of theirs. For that moment, we are acquainted, and from that moment on, we never will be again. Should I have cared who they were? Is this different than lost friendships? Does it matter how long the relationship, if the break is permanent anyway?"
