narrative project [final drafts]

I have tried to narrow down my concept to a recent experience; for my birthday, my girlfriend & I spent the day in asheville, wandering without any real purpose from one coffee shop to the next.  Later that night, we went to an electronic show at the orange peel.  I wanted to try to capture the narrative of two people interacting over the course of a day, and somehow condense that into one image.  I would still like to incorporate a more defined image amongst the atmosphere I've managed to create thus far, and likely will incorporate a cup of coffee in some way, as that seemingly mundane routine is in fact a vehicle for people to come together.  The nature of memories, especially my own, seems to be shrouded in a fog of ambiguity, particularly as I forget various specifics about an event in favor of holding onto the essence of what made it so important.  As such, I want to find the balance between recognizable forms and ambiguous textures in my image.
