Architecture of Cities: Mapping Beauty XXIII

New York City’s WTC and more.

It takes two to Tango: Every photograph I make is a dance: A recipe with a dash of phantasmagoria  and Applied Science: Two words, two worlds hinged together by vocabulary- -creatively: The two conceptual mindsets nest alongside- – Holding a secret whisper inside my camera: The conscious and unconscious life. The visual experiences likens the cotton of sheep and the steel of industry intermingling: Billions witness this stage enactment as if admiring the flight of a boomerang. Then again we dance.

Phantasmagoria is where I live when my mind and body are en route- -en route to visit an unexpected or entertain an expected capture. Sherlock Holmes had his seven-per-cent-solution, Coleridge exposed his  “Kubla Khan’’  unrestrained dreamscapes: I merely imagine: camera in hand I march towards somewhere almost anywhere creating uninhibited fantasy’s- -uninhibited truths. The visual ideas seen in my footsteps and architecture’s  footprints arrive and vanish as quickly as the imagination allows.

Park Complex and East River........
