I traveled in Tunisia with my friend Tim May, a fellow pbase photographer. I found Tim resting his sore back outside of a tourist mall in Sousse. His discomfort is evident – for once his camera is at rest. I used a 24mm wideangle lens and aimed the camera at Tim, yet the security guard at right prominently remains within the wide frame as well. I don’t think he realizes that my picture is as much about him and it is about Tim, although he seems cautiously aware of my camera. He is upright, while Tim is not. He looks at me, while Tim does not. The resulting tensions enhance the emotional content of the image. Aches and pains are often part of the touristic experience. Such is the case here.
