Words and Pictures. Are they connected? Yes. And No. The words are really just a way to add space between the pictures so that they don't all crowd up on one another. The pictures should stand by themselves. Sort of like the Cheese. But then the words have to stand alone too. They can be sometimes a tool to suggest something about a picture that might not be immediately obvious to the viewer but was, at least for a fleeting second, obvious to the writer. What can the words relate about this image, for example? Is it about the loneliness of a plastic potted plant? No, I don't think so. Is it about the sleekness of metal ventilation pipes, maybe. No. Myself, I think it's about No Diving. There's something Universal about the concept of No Diving. Everyone can understand that. So, now I think, "Enough said". Stumble It!
