I had the perfect idea or topic for a post on this blog - certainly always involving Pokémon somehow - but then when I went to write it up for today, I promptly forgot about it. There could be many reasons for this, but I'm not interested (and can't possibly) write about them all. So I have to fall back on something else, and I finally came upon one. Being the Pokémon fan that I am, I frequently have to look at pictures or photographs with Pokémon elements in them. And chances are, if they involve people or characters, there will be faces in them; invariably then, I'd have to look (stare) at them to consider them or think about how I feel in regard to them. That seems to make for a good point of discussion.
Some of these photographs certainly involve me and other Pokémon fans in different settings such as Community Day meetups or other meetups. Most of them do evoke the great feelings that were evoked at the times of the meetups, but some (particularly more recent ones) instead evoke more depressing rather than pleasing feelings. Meanwhile, the pictures, which likely involve the imagined characters of Pokémon, evoke even more diverse feelings of strength, compassion, unity, and yet still others. It might be that some of these feelings are specific to me, but surely I might not be the only one with them.
Coincidentally (or not), the topic evokes (or is also evoked by) a piece of music, which is not surprisingly entitled... "Face in the Photograph", another one composed by Yanni. It's a thought-provoking and contemplative piece given its repeated sections, which is why it's sometimes used as background music, and for the artist's fans, it's also some of their favorites. Personally, I consider it to have the capability of applying to many series, but of course, it can be applied to Pokémon with consideration of the above experience.
They say pictures (and photos) are worth many, many words, and if anything, sentiments in this earlier post are still proven true even today, with actual photographs included and with respect to the musical piece. While I have to try to contemplate just what that topic is that escaped my mind, perhaps a few Pokémon pictures and photos might jog my mind - especially through the faces in them and the evoked feelings.
