Afew days back, the tilers came to my place to fix some tiles that were taken off to repair a leak. After inspecting the works, I gave them a thumbs up and said it was so well done I can’t even tell it’s been taken off before. The levels are straight, the edges and grouting were perfectly spaced. The tiler then said he could tell it’s been reworked and before he went on to tell me how to ‘see’ it, I told him to stop. Then both of us laughed and agreed that I shouldn’t learn how to ‘see’ it because there is no way to ‘un-see’ if after that.

That incident reminded me of some of the images that I took that I felt left a deep impression in me. Some photos tell me more beyond what a viewer can see, because I experienced it the moment I pressed the button. At times, that experience makes the image alot more memorable in the photographer’s heart. When I took this photo, the MC was preparing to invite the father of the bride on stage for his speech. At that very point in time, he said the groom has a striking resemblance to  his father-in-law. At this very moment, the slideshow which was ongoing for awhile flashed an image of the groom and his father-in-law turned his head for a perfect silhouette. I can remember the moment it flashed, I went ‘woah!’ I know this little piece of memory will always come back whenever I see this image. Little things that make me really happy doing what I do.
