For me, this photo is about childhood and what a beautiful way of seeing the world children have, a view we sometimes lose as adults.

Strange how the photograph he's discussing in such detail Untitled, Memphis, 1970 is a cropped version of the original, there should be the fender of a car to the right side of the frame....maybe it's the projector but the said element is very significant in the reading of this particular photograph...
