Three decades earlier, and it's L'Avventura Lost, from Antonioni's notes, location file photos, scribbled ideas on the back. No one can play Monica Vitti, ever again. Poor Sandro. Tell us this diptych is not going for five figures at auction. Sophia Coppola is bidding on the telephone, Eleanor is complaining O.S. My mind is heating up with scenarios, and I don't think I can take the temperature. Burn the backstory. Some things are better not known, so we'll just dwell on the partial soundtrack left on the Nagra in Antonioni's hotel room before his stroke. Phil's phone number to parse the notes. A lot of instinct in this.

Zadar, Croatia 1986

F1, FDn 35mm f2, Ilford FP4

For crying out loud, I want to cry out loud, this is so hauntingly provocative; how do I anchor this, the redundancy of the arc of the sea wall leading to the head of a solitary man, a 35mm perspective, for crying out loud, so Kafkaesque in broad daylight! How did they find me, here? I'm innocent. I can testify in eight languages, most, convincingly. But, what's Anna doing with them. My papers are in order, but they're in the hotel room, fourth floor, corner window view. This isn't fair. So much DNA in this photographer's instinct. So much DNA. All right, it's all fiction, but fiction counts when nothing else does. His name is Boris, and that's not fiction. He imported used Rolls Royces and his mechanic got them running for resale. That's where Anna came into the scene with a Rolleiflex that supposedly belonged to Eva Braun. It was a curious lie, but what else could Boris believe, parading in Speedos. When he was twenty, he could run a mile in just over five minutes. He wonders how well he can do today. Not the right shoes. Sometimes, nothing comes together because it's not supposed to, he guesses.

For crying out loud, Phil. It's not supposed to be fair.

A moment, two people engaging and a camera to seal the union and the romantic in me sees more than I should, her engaging expression, your thoughtful composition and I am happy.

 I’ll bet your uncle (fig)ured that you would stop by to (fig)ure it out with a photographic (fig)uration. Bravo for figs.

The clouds were covering the mountains during a hike with a monorail view camera. As I was hiking, I noticed the clouds moving. I quickly assembly the camera, tripod, etc. just as the clouds parted momentarily. A moment later all was covered again.

Very cool, Rog.  Love the patterns and colors.  You might want to look at the leveling b/c at least on my screen it look a little tilted to the right 🤪

wow, stunning, bravo to you.  All you needed was the presence of the moon and it would have been a modern "moonrise"

*If your photo is not good you not close enough! * I read somewhere..   But when you are too close the photo is too great but it is with a great cost and a life and a  risk as a photographer. When we read this photo first thing comes to mind is it worth taking a risk? As a photographer, it is a great thrill to look back in your image and at the same time think about the moment how you made it. I have gone little out but seems you have done this while the Motorcyclist in motion and my story connect to it. I like the close details on his face and that is the story in this photo.
