Photographs appear to bring the past and present into close alignment. Here, in the photographic image, remain material traces of people, a scene, a setting, carrying this forward into the present as recorded experience of what existed then, in the time and place of the image. The paradox of the photographic image lies in the way it shifts between seducing us into this sense of alignment and awakening in us the opposite sense that, rather than a record of what has happened, all we are left with is a spectral semblance of it lingering in the present to haunt us with the drastic loss it entails. The photo image shows us that life is fleeting, time knows no stop and everything changes. There are other paradoxical qualities inherent in photography, and together they combine as a set of communicative properties that make the medium distinctive.
