Plus qu'un modèle le cygne est un symbole pour moi. C'est depuis la lecture du roman "viser les cygnes" de Hella S. Haasse, écrivain hollandais que j'ai lu en 1999 en Australie loin de ce qui passait en Europe.
Pour mêler symbole et mythologie, associations d'idées et mémoire collective j'en fait le lien souvent que nous sommes tous connectés par des histoires et des expériences. Pour moi le lieu où je me trouve m'aide à comprendre ces symboles qui renforcent ce pouvoir à se trouver connecté l'un avec l'autre. Ce pouvoir existait déjà bien avant l'époque de l'internet.
En ce qui concerne ta photo Nicki: c'est une composition grandiose. La forme rognée parfaite du cygne, l'eau exprimée en ses deux dimensions par quelques gouttes à l'avant et par des ondes presque abstrait au fond.
Je pense à toi et ta mère. Le cygne symbolise le progrès silencieux dans la vie, étant donnée en tout serenité,
je t'embrasse,
Paul

Beautifully detailed my sweet Nicki and captured at the time a dribble of water escapes the swan's beak, wonderful stuff. The composition has been cropped with great thought allowing only the neck and head to show. I love the gentle movements in the water and the way that solitary eye is kept firmly on your activities. Well done to you sweetie for another great posting. A great big HUG and all my very best wishes as always.......Ray
