Photographs that Puncture

When looking at certain photographs, I discover their punctum. According to Roland Barthes a photographs punctum is that accident which pricks me (but also bruises me, is poignant to me). I will post these photographs, all of which I did not take unless it says so. Check out my other blog: nydiablaswilliams.com
