I first saw a post card of
this park in the city where my wife is from, Ekaterinburg, Russia. When
I finally got to visit this park on our vacation in July 2002, it made
me feel even more at peace, like I was home again in a place I have
never been, but had always felt. Ekaterinburg is a wonderful city with
beautiful people and life on every corner. The outside cafés,
with the aroma of wonderful food, the shops with incredible artwork,
the people moving about with their busy lives yet always taking time
to enjoy every moment of life; this is what I had always felt like in
my heart. What I had always dreamt of doing, of becoming. In several
years I will be retiring. Maybe then I can finally become.

Please Read This
The premise of Talking
Pictures is that all of us have images that carry an internal narrative
that we rarely get to share. This entails more than just camera, exposure,
and film. It might include what provoked us to snap the shutter or how,
in retrospect, the image makes us feel.
We invite you to submit images and words for this department. Please
send only one image and brief text with each submission. Because we
will print the pictures large please make sure that the image can take
the blowup. For this department we will accept only high-quality prints
(5x7 or 8x10) and slides—no digital files, please. We will not
be able to return the images to you because of the volume we anticipate
receiving. And by sending us the image you grant us permission to print
it in the magazine and on our website. We also may hold publication
for some time.
So come on, get published and share your ideas and inspiration. Send
submissions to Talking Pictures, Shutterbug, 1419 Chaffee Dr., Suite
#1, Titusville, FL 32780.
