Hey all! This week I thought that I would do something different. I have decided to pick a picture and tell you what a caption couldn't. This picture was take during the summer of my 6th grade. While visiting the beautiful island of Santorini, I snapped this pic of the beautiful pearl white houses that seemed to hang right above the deep blue of the Mediterranean. But all of that could be interpreted by you the reader after viewing the image.
After a long journey we finally arrived to the island of Santorini known for its picturesque beauty. I specifically remember looking out from our room and being blown away. Here I was, seeing something only a lucky few get to see, with the people I love, and not a single care in the world. I truly felt light and limitless. A caption wouldn't be able to express the smile on my face as we walked down the cobblestone streets or the warmth of the Greek sun on my pink cheeks. These moments will last forever.
Hopefully I've painted a picture and have expressed more than this picture ever could have. Until next voyage guys! Its Captain Jack signing off over and out.
I really like your commentary in this post. The combination of the picture and your words allow me to feel the your emotion and connection to this image. It shows a different side of you and makes me reflect on the good times.
ReplyDeleteJack, I thought it was really great how you took a photo from your past and presented a story with it that had an impact on your life. You really described the feeling in that photo so much that it seemed like I was there with you on that warm day in Santorini. Can't wait to read more of your work.
