“If My Eyes Were a Lens…”

I got this idea in my head a few weeks ago about having the ability to share pictures of  everything you see with somebody who can’t quite grasp the beauty that’s around them. Maybe they believe in it. Maybe they don’t. Maybe they just haven’t had the opportunity to SEE it. But if you could SHOW it to them, all at once, you could take the memories, take a step forward, and start making NEW ones together.

As for the poem/narration that makes up the structure of this video, I had the first line, jotted it in my journal, and free-wrote for a couple of minutes. This is what came from that.

Hope you enjoy.
