               PICTURE
          By ... Steve Lucky

A picture, a moment frozen in time
Where every detail can be closely studied
Many different times, from many different angles,
Revealing things otherwise unseen
Because they disappear in the blink of an eye.
Artists and photographers alike,
Through countless hours of practice,
Can create a still representation of our world.
Every millimeter of space in every second of time,
Contains something of importance
To the trained observer who knows where to look.
Life will never be replaced
By a silent, unmoving picture
Yet a picture tells us many things
About the hidden details of life.
