Pretty unreal

Yesterday’s pink dawn was absorbed by the peachy trees and then pink and peach were both subsumed by my fibbing phone camera and its robotic desire to please by saturating colour and smoothing out the smallest imperfections. Capturing what you perceive is easier with a digital camera, and easier still with a film camera (but oh, the wait to see the results!) Capturing not the thing but the effect it produces demands different media altogether – paint – collage – music – one scintillating word set in a reflective verse.
