Three of a perfect pair

How can we discover images that are very similar, and yet very different? What do they have in common, and what sets them apart? Perhaps it is best if we try to understand them as a group, as a set, and make them function as a unit of understanding, rather than segregating them according to differences. In this blogpost, I show a conglomeration of images and what binds them: a railroad journey, a poet and a photographer, a color scheme. Then there is thematic work to do. That becomes the work of ekphrasis. More at blog.amynelsonhahn.info
