Constant Agitation is my place to ruminate about life’s details and to show off some photography.
The phrase comes from directions for developing light sensitive film or paper. When photographers used to spend vast amounts of time squirreled away in a darkroom, a sheet of exposed photo paper would be slid into a tray of developer and the image would start to emerge. Constant agitation was required to keep the fluid active and moving over the surface of the paper to prevent streaks and insure the thorough emergence of the luscious silvery goodness that was silver halide photography.
Constant agitation is also that burning irritation that comes from rubbing up against life.
