John, I believe we are always walking with the visible and the invisible. I like that you chose this photo to use this technique given the current controversy and the history of this place.. It’s very evocative.
Just photographing a place like this evokes controversy. And so far, requests from media and people grabbing the Grace Islet photos on this site and posting on Facebook (now, according to Facebook’s ‘rules’ they have full rights to my image). Oh, you know, that old stuff.
I forwarded this photo to Adam Olsen of the Green Party because it says so much about why we don’t want a house built on Grace Islet. He just replied to ask if he could use the photo on social media. Here is his email: Adam Olsen
This is lovely John.
Thanks Tamar.

And I worry about that a bit.
What do you mean? You worry about what aspect?

I’d settle for just an evocative moment ;-)
I like that effect, John!
