so much depends...
These photographs are in honor of the American poet William Carlos Williams. I was particularly influenced by The Red Wheelbarrow. From this poem I learned so much about the truth of seeing.

"Reading this poem is like peering at an ordinary object through a pin prick in a piece of cardboard. The fact that the tiny hole arbitrarily frames the object endows it with an exciting freshness that seems to hover on the verge of revelation."

The Red Wheelbarrow
so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens.
