“Photography teaches us to see, and we can see whatever we wish. When I take a photograph, I make a wish. I was always looking for beauty.”
~ George Tice
There's something about a photograph that can capture a space so perfectly that it suspends your understanding of your current whereabouts and you are fully pulled into the image. I suppose this is something that Lewis Carrol or C.S. Lewis amongst other great authors tried to also create in their own stories. But George Tice has created that feeling in this photograph. A moment to stand on the floor of a Barber shop in New Jersey in the 1970's, bathed in winter light. It's as if we are there standing beside George, soaking up the beauty in the ordinary.
