MOTHER’S DAY: TRAMPOLINING WITH GRANDMA

The new trampolines for kids come with a high safety net that completely surrounds the sides of the trampoline, so that you don’t need a ‘spotter’ to safeguard against falling off. When you photograph through the net, you get a slight softening, a grainy filtering of your subject’s image. Combined with the sense of motion, the effect to me was reminiscent of my happiest days of childhood: non-stop, gentle, carefree, uninhibited joy.
