Punctum


I came across Christian Patterson's work this summer, and it took me a little while to really see what I believe is the punctum in this photograph. After observing it closely, I finally realized the words at the very top. I was so intrigued, I had to look up what this verse said:
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
-Revelation 21:8
I found this subtle clue to look farther beyond the image truly intriguing. I love that I was so captured by this, that I felt like I needed to do research to discover a completely new view of this photo.
