IN OUR MIND'S EYES
"In my mind's eyes
you try getting better.
In your mind's eyes I smile.
In your mind's eyes
I stop words of anger.
In my mind's eyes you're mine.
In my mind's eyes
you never let me down.
In your mind's eyes I'm yours.
In my mind's eyes
when things can't get tougher
you sometimes let go.
If I'm wrong
If I am dreaming
If I'm joking now
our life
our life
has proved successful
in our own mind's eyes..."
By Mary V.
I spotted this couple in Leipzig, Germany in 1999 at a park while taking ... contradictory portraits.
You know what to do in onder to read the rest of the poem! Sometimes the outside differs from the inside... is this the reason why things carrying visual attributes other than the ones expected shock us??

Dear Jaap, actually it is NOT an old-fashioned couple. Quite the opposite!!
This was a game with the words to refer to the posture of the young people. The way they sit, and the background. I did not know them, I found them in the park while taking photos of a festival in Leipzig, but to my mind this is a very old-fashioned photo that escapes its topic. i try not to place things in their original nature. Unfortunately, I did not scan this photo very well I'm afraid. The tones are not so distinct. I printed the photo in ILFORD MGIV (Multigrade IV) RC De Luxe and the tones are ok, very interesting.
Thanx
