Few days ago when I saw this photo for the first time of Dan Graham I really liked the rhythm and the beauty of the apparently normal and every day sight in a city. But he saw it. He photographed it. At the same time I thought there was a small deja-vu in what I was looking at. Now I know, it is this photo I took in December in Monterrey, it does not have the playful sinuosity of the balconies and my photo has more different elements on it. But in a way it has the sense of the sky being sandwiched between buildings. The buildings helping you to focus on the landscape and accepting the buildings as part of the landscape.
The last two photographs I took at the beginning of December in The Hague. They are taken within two days apart. Strangely enough I don't remember taking them on purpose from the same angle, in fact I don't remember having taken the second one at all. But what I can recall know was the same feeling I described above of buildings compressing the air and building the composition. As I saw the photos next to each other now it is amazing they are taken from the same place and I can not remember it!
