My blog is a contemplation of time.
All the texts you read and photos you see were created in the past. This is how I contemplate time here, on the www.adammazek.com website. Do I desire to publish texts and pictures in real time? Of course I do. Somehow, I did when I began the “War In Ukraine” series. Still, even in this set of posts, day by day, I started to publish posts with delay. Today (I wrote this text on the 13th of May, 2023), I have 121 posts scheduled for publication. Moreover, I have 279 registered posts (I still need to add them to the website). It is impossible to write how many photos I am waiting in the queue to discover and add to posts. Undoubtedly, there are thousands of them. That’s why running this blog is a contemplation of time.
The idea of writing this text came to me while preparing the “Transience” set of pictures.
While selecting photos for this set, I looked at my Lightroom pictures, which I tagged “Selfie.” While doing it, I realized how I had changed for almost eight years. It is not the case I changed for better or worse. No. I simply changed. I have no doubts it is only a matter of time before I prepare a set of pictures entitled “Selfie.” In today’s post, I want to stress that I love not only walking and doing street photography but also writing new texts and preparing subsequent “Diaries'” editions.
I also love moving in time to the past by watching my pictures made years ago. I do it mainly when I prepare subsequent posts and sets of images. This is how I find my old selfies and realize I contemplate time. While writing all these things, I realized, not for the first time in my life, that my photos inspired me.
