Now that I’ve taken this shot, I’m amazed at how many other people have also taken the same one. 🙂
That’s what I said back in 2011 when I snapped this at the PNE’ Fright Night with a friend and colleague. Both of us were exploring photography in coursework and just by taking photos. Those black smudges aren’t just the swings, they’re the people too. Something about this has that very, very, very faint sense of irreverence for humanity… or perhaps a slightly indecent exposure of humanity’s frailty… like the way Starship Troopers portrays its unfortunate humans the way we tend to treat the bugs we step on (squish, splat, smudge, don’t even notice as I walk away).
