" Voi siete l'arco dal quale, come frecce vive, i vostri figli sono lanciati in avanti " Kahlil Gibran. L'Arte della Fotografia è un mezzo espressivo molto potente, perchè con essa il fotografo ha la possibilità di cogliere in un istante o meglio con un istantanea luoghi, cose, esseri viventi, fatti e storie di vita. Una foto è in grado di comunicare a chi la guarda delle sensazioni, di trasmettere delle emozioni, di raccontare un fatto o una storia, di denunciare e di far riflettere. Ma noi fotografi molto spesso questo ce lo dimentichiamo, poichè siamo attratti più dagli aspetti tecnici e dall'estetica fine a se stessa della fotografia, piuttosto che dal suo contenuto o dal suo messaggio. Per questo motivo ho voluto pubblicare e condividere con voi amici questa istantanea (a cui io ho dato un significato) che fa riflettere sul contesto in cui è stata scattata e che allo stesso tempo comunica delle sensazioni, racconta una storia e denuncia una determinata situazione: da cui il titolo della foto. Un piccolo paese del Sud come tanti, lasciato ad un continuo degrado ed i cui molti suoi abitanti sono costretti ad andare a cercare lavoro altrove. Un bambino dallo sguardo malinconico, vestito elegante nel giorno del suo compleanno, in una posa di attesa, come fosse uno sposo che attende all'altare la sua sposa (la mamma) che mai arriverà (ma lui non lo sa ancora). Un bianconero volutamente contrastato, scelto da me per raccontare la nuda e cruda realtà; l'abito elegante che fa da contrappunto ad un contesto spoglio e disadorno con una scalinata che non è certo come quella di "Trinità dei Monti". Ed infine, sono lo stesso contesto e lo stesso sguardo a denunciare e a raccontare di una storia di un abbandono.

“ .... But we photographers very often forget this, because we are attracted more by the technical aspects and the aesthetics of photography, rather than by its content or its message.... „

I have read very carefully your profound analysis of the degradation that often accompanies the daily life of each of us. And I'm not just talking about environmental or socio-cultural. How not to share what you've said? The photo gave me a strong emotion, almost troubled me that lost look of the child staring helplessly at your goal. Dramatically sad and effective this proposal of yours. Chapeau!
bye gios ;-)

Thanks again Gios, I did not even imagine the strength of this photo and the fact that it would be able to excite so much. I'm amazed too! When I took it I did it instinctively, only after I pulled out what for me was its meaning, reflecting on myself and the affair. Greetings Francis.

A story really very well told from every point of view, both in the photo and in the caption, I agree with you when you say : "but we photographers often forget this ...", congratulations Francis.

Thank you Rodema, for your visit and for your welcome comment. It was difficult to tell the full contents of this photo. If I succeeded somehow it is thanks to the caption. Also because it is not a photo artfully built to tell the story of the child, but a simple snapshot. It is then her story that came out of the photo and the context in which it was taken.
