A Life Lived
So often it is the “pretty” picture and near-perfect capture of the “ideal-looking” subject that is highly adulated. There are, though, other visual presentations. They are the images that tell stories…stories of life.
Here, an aging and battle-scarred Jaguar pauses intently while on the hunt. Its face is a living narrative of battles won and battles lost…a face that reflects a life lived.
As survivors age they bear, the battle scars of life. All encounters leave a mark, a memory of each strife.
