After thinking more about what I can resolve for this project, I was thinking about ideas of Permanence. Nothing really around you is permanent. A building might last a few hundred years, a tree might last a similar amount of time. There are some old books and ancient relics, but in the vastness of Time, nothing really is permanent. The only really permanent thing is the sky, although it changes every minute and is never truly the same again. A photograph fixes the current state in the Now, but it can be viewed anytime afterwards and without context one might never know whether it was taken the previous day, years ago or even if it was real.
I now must try to take pictures of the permanence.
