red smear dress

dress - self made (for sale here)

planned to find a harvested field

and shoot pics of this dress there

so i took a walk to find the said field

..

somewhere along the way

i decided to take a turn left

and see where that road bends

and that road ended up in a post-apocalyptic place,

spooky and beautiful at the same time

..

there were houses and orchards long forgotten 

swallowed by the forest so dense

that it can not be entered

without the help of machete

..

it is fantastic

to see nature fighting back 

and claiming back some of it's space..

but it looks scary at the same time

with all the crazy things going on in the world these days

it can soon be my house and my orchard

that is swallowed by the forest..

or anyone's for that matter

..

at the end

all the walking and thinking exhausted me

a harvested field was nowhere to be found

so the original concept had to be abandoned..

i got back home and shoot pics

using wall of my parent's country house as a backdrop 

and while i was shooting pics

the strangest thing happened:

my parent's cat showed up

carrying a dead bird in it's mouth

..

bird was pretty much headless 

so i thought why bother saving it..

and, in the end, who am i to intervene? 

so i got back to my photo shooting business 

(even took a few pics of cat having a meal

but i'll spare you the visual)
