Dachau Concentration Camp

 

LindaS@:"How are you feeling about being here?"

SteveG@:"Troupled: the camp is too pristine, too clean, but if I were the Camp's architect I could not conceive how to make it authentic."

  LindaS@:"...taken any photos?"

SteveG@:"I have but they're vanilla images, snapshots, what everybody is taking."

LindaS@:"Try harder SteveG@ - capture with your camera what you  feel about the Camp!"

Half an hour later I started swinging the camera with a slow shutter

speed obviously unsure of what I was doing. Lo & behold, I captured what I felt, -

blurry evenness, a handicapped person, a cut off head, the still legible words, the balanced composition.
