Images; lost and found.

I don't discard many of my old pictures and, today, a slightly troublesome backup disk led me to check out some old shots as I transferred them over to a new drive.

I thought I had 'lost' a folder in the process but later rescued the files from the faulty drive.  As I began to look closely at the images, including this one which is a crop from a previously neglected 'NYC Diner' picture, I began to wonder how many more images I might 'find' in the archives. ​

Context will always shift our interpretations and I know that the edit that I produced for the gallery show of these images would be different if I did it again today. ​ Ultimately, it feels like the images we produce are as much 'in us' as 'out there'.

Which, of course, can be the basis for the discovery and conversation of a great 'Photo-Dialogue'...  ​
