First day into my year long daily Literature project.
Quotation:
'Let the beauty you love be what you do. There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the earth.'
Jalaluddin Rumi.
Note: I hope you enjoy this new daily project. It would be great if you could follow along and comment when you would like to, I do appreciate your remarks even if I am too lax in replying to them...apologies for this in advance! Very briefly this project will explore the written word in its many and various forms; sometimes the connection between my photograph and the quotation etc. will be obvious sometimes not so clear, or perhaps a bit of both as in the Rumi quote above. Whatever the case I hope they make you think and if not entertain you.
You will find that most of these photographs will be in the square format, I agree with Bruno Munari who writes "The square as a shape is the greatest concentration of a spatial idea, complete within itself. It represents an order that is concise and simultaneously permeated by spiritual symbolism. All other rectangular forms, with their different sides, are to the square a sort of expansion of its rules via the extension of its height or width."
@wakelys Do you mean the oblong on top of the camera? If so it is the folding camera rear screen which on the Fujifilm X70 can be lifted up to take a selfie. If you look closely you can see me taking the photo!
