Behind the Lens -I.



You published a new post. An hour later, you return to it and reread, and suddenly you realize that all your efforts were just a simple tediousness. 

You erase the words without any regret and you feel a relief but for some reason you can't remove a photo and you wonder why.

This photo is riddled with loneliness. I have many photographs that convey this feeling.  I think at some point of my life I started to explore loneliness and isolation.  I also got influenced by some photographers who have been created for years the photographs where loneliness screamed and didn't let you go.

The photograph above is sad but it's also a celebration of life, determination and strength.

Right now this photo is a beautiful memory of our family tradition that sadly no longer exists. 

At the beginning of autumn three of us, my husband, our dog Tasha and I, have been driving to one of the campgrounds in the mountains to spend a day there. 

Tasha enjoyed her freedom, she was running in every place possible collecting on her paws thorns from thistles. 

We laughed and waited when our not so young dog would calm down and fall asleep on a soft carpet of autumn leaves and we would have our picnic lunch surrounded by the silent tall trees and chimes of birds.





Tasha.


Generally, life is good!
