"the family of man" and one kiss that I've loved.

“… and then i asked him with my eyes to ask again yes
And then he asked me would I yes…
And first I put my arms around him yes
And drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes
And his heart was going like mad
And yes I said yes I will yes.”

James Joyce

That’s the quote that begins the photobook “the family of man”. And I never could understand what did that means. My godmother give us that book in December 2000. And I just loved it. I was eight years old, and I love to imagine the histories behind the pictures. The picture that I choose is from the “love part”, but the book also has some really hardcore pictures. Is like a complete view to the humanity, from the shots of lots of greats photographers.
The one that I pick was taken by Robert Doisneau, a frech fotographer. He used to walk around the streets of Paris with his leika. Like he said:
“The marvels of daily life are so exciting; no movie director can arrange the unexpected that you find in the street."
I don’t know exactly when was this picture taken, is around the 30’s I think.. He took lots of kisses photos ( you could google him and you’ll see). But I love this one. I always love to see it like if it was the first time, and I used to saw the kid first, then the lady, and then I tried to find what she was looking. And there’s the kiss. And, maybe now I will say tons of corny thing, but I love the way that they are like hidden, apart from the rest, like a not important part of the picture. But, they are the picture. And maybe that’s why this it my favorite kiss since eleven years.
