weight

i don’t know that i could explain why i love this composition but i do. there is something about its weight. about its center of gravity. my husband was trying to explain to me, after his recent trip to france, why a particular view of his favorite vineyard was so satisfying. he said he kept looking at it as a whole and then kept looking at all of its elements and kept looking back and forth and everything always worked. there is something almost like satisfying a hunger that goes into consuming a composition you love, whether natural or manipulated. this one fills me up, and leaves; me empty.
