Naomi's observations ask valid questions but here are some more questions to think about.<br /><br />Is the couple together, reuniting or is this their last dance? and with any of those scenarios does race play any part in it? Current social events has shown us how much work we still have ahead of us to end this ugliness called racism/hatred. and, is there anything better or more effective than music to bring people of all backgrounds together? Music transcends all these things while holding all the joy and sadness in each note.William Zubackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02584774871717650028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589722752603511645.post-47045488228312017772009-08-07T05:33:21.518-07:002009-08-07T05:33:21.518-07:00Thanks Frieda, that is some compliment.

I new this image would be more "receptive" than many of my other ones because it is a much softer visual emotionally as well as contextually.<br /><br />Sue, I am happy that you like how I represented one of your favorite passages and book. It is never a goal of mine to try and satisfy that aspect of the process since I am first selfishly and honestly satisfying my own artistic vision but it always is a good feeling when the person who sent in the passage has a good experience with the visual.<br /><br />Thanks Naomi and everyone else who responded to this visual passage interpretation. Naomi, I am always excited when I hear that the image has left you with so many questions. I try to achieve that with all my images. I want the viewer to leave visually satisfied but intellectually curious and it sound like I did that with your viewing experience.William Zubackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02584774871717650028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589722752603511645.post-2748654222944039962009-08-06T11:40:56.202-07:002009-08-06T11:40:56.202-07:00This is a gorgeous photo.

But the image also leaves me with questions — e.g., is the woman Gloria? Could she be? And why is the sax player in the background? Interesting interpretation — is Gloria or the sax player the subject of the passage (and of the photo)? I'm glad you gave us some backstory on how you put this together.

Just literal enough to draw someone into the image, but from there, left open enough to interpretation that the viewer can come away with all sorts of emotions/impressions of their own. Thanks for doing such a wonderful job with one of my favorite passages from one of my favorite novels.suejaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06985486850753275054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589722752603511645.post-7123262711861911582009-08-03T06:33:32.076-07:002009-08-03T06:33:32.076-07:00You are not going to believe this, but when I saw ...You are not going to believe this, but when I saw that photo, I started crying. I'm not kidding! There are tears in my eyes. It's frickin' amazing Bill. Seriously, this is the best one yet. There is so much emotion and feeling and movement, and wonder.
