Behind most of the images shown here is the concept of the present. They reflect the brevity, the fleetingness but also the decisiveness of the moment. They don’t want to show the beauty of the world, nor the ugliness. They either show that something is decided now or that the moment simply passes or reflect the perfect moment. Reality is what it is.
We see photos that are intended to show how fleeting the present is. And that it is our only chance to influence what comes later. Or that there are moments that are so perfect that we just want to enjoy them.
