candid child
If indeed you must be candid, be candid beautifully...
"When the child was a child, it walked with his arms swinging.
It wanted the stream to be a river, the river a torrent, and this
puddle to be a sea.
When the child was a child, it didn't know it was a child.
Everything was full of life, and all life was one.
When the child was a child, it had no opinions about anything. It had no habits.
It sat cross-legged, took off running, had a cowlick in his hair, and didn't make a picture when photographed.
When the child was a child, it was the time of these questions:
Why am I me, and why not you? Why am I here, and why not there?
When did time begin and where does space ends?
Isn't life under the sun just a dream? Isn't what I see, hear and
smell only the illusion of a world before the world?
Does evil actually exist? And are there people who are really evil?
How can it be that I, who am I, didn't exist before I came to be?
And that someday the one who I am will no longer be the me I am?
When the child was a child, apples and bread were enough for it, and
it is still that way.
When the child was a child, berries fell into its hands as only berries do, and they still do.
Fresh walnuts made its tongue raw, and they still do now.
On every mountain top, it had a longing for a yet higher mountain, and in every city it had a longing for a yet bigger city. And it is still that way.
It reached for cherries in the treetop with the elation it still feels today. It was shy with all strangers, and it still is.
It awaited the first snow, and it is still this way.
When the child was a child, it threw a stick into a tree like a lance.
And it still quivers there today."
"Lied Vom Kindsein" — Peter Handke.
"Quando il bambino era bambino, se ne andava a braccia appese. Voleva che il ruscello fosse un fiume, il fiume un torrente, e questa pozza il mare.
Quando il bambino era bambino, non sapeva d'essere un bambino. Per lui tutto aveva un'anima, e tutte le anime erano tutt'uno.
Quando il bambino era bambino, su niente aveva un'opinione.
Non aveva abitudini. Sedeva spesso a gambe incrociate, e di colpo sgusciava via.
Aveva un vortice tra i capelli, e non faceva facce da fotografo.
Quando il bambino era bambino, era l'epoca di queste domande:
Perché io sono io, e perché non sei tu? Perché sono qui, e perché non
sono lí? Quando é cominciato il tempo, e dove finisce lo spazio?
La vita sotto il sole, é forse solo un sogno? Non é solo l'apparenza
di un mondo davanti a un mondo, quello che vedo, sento e odoro?
C'é veramente il male? E' gente veramente cattiva?
Come puó essere che io, che sono io, non c'ero prima di diventare? E
che un giorno io, che sono io, non saró piú quello che sono?
Quando il bambino era bambino, per nutrirsi gli bastavano pane e mela,
ed é ancora cosí.
Quando il bambino era bambino, le bacche gli cadevano in mano, come solo le bacche sanno cadere. Ed é ancora cosí. Le noci fresche gli raspavano la lingua, ed é ancora cosí.
A ogni monte, sentiva nostalgia di una montagna ancora piú alta, e in
ogni cittá, sentiva nostalgia di una cittá ancora piú grande. E
questo, é ancora cosí. Sulla cima di un albero, prendeva le ciliegie
tutto euforico, com'é ancora oggi.
Aveva timore davanti ad ogni estraneo, e continua ad averne. Aspettava
la prima neve, e continua ad aspettarla.
Quando il bambino era bambino, lanciava contro l'albero un bastone,
come fosse una lancia.
E ancora continua a vibrare.
"Lied Vom Kindsein" — Peter Handke.

The way the light graduates from darker at the top to lighter at the bottom of the photo allows his/her eyes to really bring the viewer in... Viewing this large you can more clearly see the graininess that is reminiscent of high speed B&W films (i.e. pushed Tri-X) Great shot...nice processing.
