I read the other day that the Incas didn't leave any writing documents because did it through knitting and the documents where in the end cloth that rot.
I am wandering how this things looked? where they beautiful?
A digital document is just that; information. Can you wright a poem in an image file? can you tell your life story through images?

for me this is the most abstract picture that I seen in this forum and I don't know why.

abst. seems to have to do a lot with scale for me. A detail of a very large image shows something very different than if you see it hole.

We generally think of abstraction as of form (into geometric shapes, a shape or group of shapes that we can't figure out) these "abstract" form can trigger our imagination.
But it can be, also, of space (a place) or of time or both. This sometimes is cataloged as nostalgia or kitch (cursi) but it might be a grate place to experiment. Or maybe formal abstraction is related to the Avantgard art (where it was at some time experimental) and therefor it's "cool".
I guess they are just tools that we can use to express, be more literal or discrete etc... but the most literal can be the most discrete.
so there

thank you Mr. Smith
but I'll try to prove you wrong:
In terms of time;
1-the two girls are sisters and the small one look's very much the same as the big one in pictures of her when she was the same age.
2-there is also the age reference in the background of the mother and child. this reasures the pairs.
3-It is just simply a digital snap of time,place and event which just changes in relevance to where and when you see it again. (in 2,000 years when we all live in mars?)
In terms of space;
1- for anyone that looks at it they know that it is outside, day etc... (in this earth)
2- for me, It remanids me of Veracruz (which I like) but that feeling would change if an earthcuake would hit that place.
3- and you like the sky but that would change if I told you it was shot in las vegas inside a large hotel
In terms of form;
You might like the abstract definition of the edge of the sky or the high shadow definition where you can hint the eyes of the small girl that I got by lowering the contrast in the M8 RAW file.

Well, umm, ok. If you say so. I like the way the girls' hair is blowing around in the air. The sense of evening light. A comfortable group, happy to be together.
Whether any of that is true doesn't change how I feel about it. Your words do not add or detract from the photo in any way.
