Insite and out by jacqbb

Insite and out

De fotograaf zegt niets, hij laat ons zien, een boom bijvoorbeeld
Wat je ziet is niet de boom, maar de boom zoals hij die ziet
Wat jij ziet is wat hij zag in het licht van de boom
Kijk daar op de foto staat hij zoals ik hem op dit enige tijdstip zag
De boom is honderdduizend bomen, elke seconde anders in het licht
Het is niet anders dan de natuur, je kunt niet zeggen dat ze zwijgt
Ze praat net als het gefotografeerde niet

Herman van Veen

The photographer says nothing, he shows us, a tree for example
What you see is not the tree, but the tree as he sees it
What you see is what he saw in the light of the tree
Look there on the photo he stands as I saw him at this only time
The tree is a hundred thousand trees, every second different in the light
It is no different than nature, you cannot say that she is silent
Just like the photographed, she doesn't talk

By Herman van Veen

I tried to translate this poem as best as possible. I’ve taken this photo at domain Paltz.
It is a small concert hall in the middle of the woods. The reflection of the white building is the exhibition space and café
Nice shot

This is very clever Jacqueline - and illustrates the ideas in the poem very well. :)
