So when I do find myself far from home, I’ll steal random moments, typically with a camera in my hand. It’s something of a coping mechanism, I suppose.
Yesterday we found ourselves in Winnipeg’s airport, so I wandered around looking for inspiration. It didn’t take long for one of YWG’s very tony glass-enclosed jetways to speak to me. Seriously, they should all be glass.
Should I have been standing Right There when I composed this image? I’m guessing that would be a hard no. Nor was it technically kosher to press the lens against the glass on the locked access door. I’m sure I broke a bunch of rules getting this shot, and thankfully I wasn’t busted by the airport police.
But here’s the thing: the world is a big scary place right now. Always has been, mind you, and likely always will be. So some of us look for comfort in unusual ways, in unusual places.
And maybe we stretch a boundary here and there, but the mission is a gentle one, and the reasons seem to make personal sense in an impersonal, frightening time.
At least that’s how I justify it to myself before the airport police come for me. When they do, please show them this photo. Hopefully they’ll go easy on me.
