Annalia S.'s photos with the keyword: contrasts

Like many here, I think about you often, Andy, and check on Isabel's news on your progress first thing after I log in. Today, I went through my images to find one that would help me show what goes on in my thoughts when I think of what you, and your family along with you, are going through. As photographers, we know full well that darkness has its uses, and its lures. But we also know that, just as light needs darkness to define its contours, so too darkness is nothing without light to show its edges. And light is waiting for you, Andy, just beyond the rim of your closed lids: you have been resting in darkness for a long time now and it’s time to remember, as a much better photographer than I will ever be once told me, that “it’s all about the light”. Let the light in, let it give you back your days, your loves and your loved ones, your zest for life that we miss so much. Your body took a beating, and perhaps a bit more rest might still be needed to build back its strength after the terrible battle it fought, but now you must try to put the memory of that terror behind you and let light do its magic, just like it does in so many of the pictures we all love. We are all waiting, along with you, Andy, for that moment when the first light breaks through and brings the world back out of the shadows.
