Chicken Stew – and Music – for the Soul

November 12, 2008 · By Deb Phillips – The Photo Gal

A little chicken stew and the soul-soothing acoustics of singer/songwriter, Jim Cole, were ingredients to a very enjoyable afternoon at Shallowford Square this past Saturday. The warm-up band, Waiting on Wings, also added their own unique flavor for praise and worship.

Against the backdrop of rich music in the Square, families tossed footballs. Children romped in the playground area. Parents attended to their infants and toddlers with obvious pride and joy. Couples, young and old, sat affectionately close to each other. Winsome teenagers cavorted and conversed. And a golden afternoon light spread across the Square as if bestowing a visual blessing on each unique life.

This delightful event was hosted by radio station WBFJ and sponsored by Lewisville Drug Company and six area churches. To see photos of the concert and the wonderful audience, please visit the Jim Cole / WBFJ Concert Gallery.

    Most of the pictures (in mass circulation photography magazines) suggest embarrassing strain: odd angles, extreme lenses, and eccentric darkroom techniques reveal a struggle to substitute shock and technology for sight. How many photographers of importance, after all, have relied on telephoto lenses? Instead, their work is usually marked by an economy of means, an apparently everyday sort of relationship with their subject matter. —Robert Adams
