It’s July hot, and the air is so thick every breath requires effort. I stand on the sidewalk, and I can feel the sweat sliding down my back in the curved spaces. What am I doing out here with this camera? I think I find the answer in these words from Margaret Renkl —
Every day the world is teaching me what I need to know to be in the world.
In the stir of too much motion:
Hold still.
Be quiet.
Listen.
