The Emotional Power of the Photograph

I had a very moving experience about a month ago that I have shared with a few people since.  It really deserves to be shared with more.

The story is simple.  I stumbled across a gallery on Pbase that stirred such deep emotions inside of me that I had never felt before while looking at photographs.  I don't want to project my experience onto your viewing of this gallery.  I think it's better if you just experience it as I did.

BEFORE CLICKING ON THE GALLERY LINK BELOW:
Here is my suggestion.  Find a time when you will have 7-8 minutes of uninterrupted time and then visit the gallery using the link below.   When you get there, click on the "slideshow" link in the upper right hand corner.   When the slideshow starts, set the "delay" to 5 Seconds.

Finally, if you feel inclined, please take the time to share your response to this experience in the comment section of this blog.   And don't forget to share the same with Jeff Horner, who created this wonderful gallery. 

Follow this link to the gallery of Betty Horner.

Viewed the gallery in slideshow format yesterday. Yes, very powerful indeed. Mesmerizing. A fantastic tribute to the photographer's mother. Thanks for the tip. :-)
