Phone Photography Contest - #79 / From and toward the mud

(Edited)

It is a well-known saying, taken from the Bible: “Dust thou are, and unto dust shalt thou return” (according to one of the most widely used translations). Thus, the French poet Nerval, quoted by the Mexican writer Octavio Paz, says that we are the children of slime, of mud.

The image of primordial matter will always attract our visual, even tactile, attention. In it, in some way, we find ourselves, we see ourselves reflected, whether it is soft or dry, almost dust. Its color and texture play on its Genesic body.

I took these three images with my cell phone on a recent trip to the Araya Peninsula, on the way to one of its beaches. It is salty mud, cracked by the harsh sun, touched by the sea breeze and water.

Con el sudor de tu rostro comerás el pan hasta que vuelvas a la tierra porque de ella fuiste tomado pues polvo eres, y al polvo volverás.
Génesis 3:19. Muy buena fotos y reflexión

To earth we shall return.

This is a sentence that always rings in my head whenever I look around me and get lost in the material things of life. Mana taught me a song based on that statement and it often serves as a gentle reminder not to get lost in desire.
