You know when you watch movies, tv, or even a live performance, the moments where no one says anything, it's just the film. I love those moments when no lines are spoken, no voice over narrating, no background song creating an atmosphere or there to make you laugh or to see a point that the director is trying to make. The art of it all- a simple smile or chuckle, a flash of an image of someone's past, or maybe a true, raw emotion of someone coming out of their shell, or maybe a evil smile or a teenager rolling their eyes. 
A split second reaction to a situation, before anyone actually thinks... I love it. Those little moments in time, almost passed by, yet they show the real life even though it's technically fantasy. Even if it's fiction, or fact. The reality in fantasy. Or the common denominator,what we describe as a "Kodak moment", even though it may be Samsung, Nokia,or a Canon...the chuckle underneath your breath, the moment right before the camera shoots, or the wild side coming out of a supposedly shy person. Or the joking around with friends and capturing it on tape. Even if it's a mental camera. The silence or a little emotion. during a motion picture, those small instances that are in everything. One of my favorite things... :)

I was thinking of this while watching Live at Abbey Road with The Subways (love Charlotte, awesome Bass player), Gnarls Barkley (Amazing, that's all I have to say, another artist/group that hard to describe), and Herbie Hancock (smooth jazz, it's fantastic)...typed it on my BB.
Hope you notice these beautiful moments...
:)
I was trying to find a picture to help me get the point more clear, and I turned to a beautiful moment of a friend's (Lee Kazimir) film-- More Shoes, here is just a still, but I think it may help make it a bit more clear..
