But we can also take pleasure in images. And this summer I am going to keep a journal of images, starting with these roses from the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. The Botanical Garden has a wonderful collection of roses and we were not the only ones taking pictures. We met an old man, who had an amazing camera, who goes to the Garden several times a week to take photos, seems to know the roses personally, and to feel sad when rain knocks the petals off.
I have no story in mind right now for the images I collect this summer and I don't want to force them into a shape they don't take on their own. But I am looking forward to the process.
