4 thoughts on “Knowing too much”

1. This pairing of image and words feels painfully precise. The quiet street, the bare trees, the solitary figure moving through the frame—it mirrors that kind of sadness Virginia Woolf describes so well: not dramatic, not loud, but steady and lucid. The sadness that comes from seeing clearly, without illusion.

   What strikes me most is how the photograph doesn’t exaggerate anything. It simply exists, much like those “small, insignificant moments” Woolf writes about, and that restraint makes the loneliness deeper rather than softer. The image doesn’t ask for sympathy; it just lets you stand inside that understanding for a moment.

   It’s a quiet, unsettling beauty—one that stays with you longer than comfort ever could.

   • And yet, I think we are the privileged ones. The ones who know too much. I’d rather be that than the empty headed masses.
