Shutter snaps
time elapses
sensor synapses

An algorithm is written
a visual rhythm
of darks and lights
in black and white

or colorful tones

the pixels trickle
from tone to hue

often as a gradient
overly radiant

contrast strong
forming vivid edges
becoming tall ledges

where the eye falls into
the deepest darks
or finds the lightest lights
the photograph is,

Exposed
