heard about
your story
through the years
about
all your hurt
and fears.
here’s about you
the faces
the tears
and embraces…

lives are filled with indecisions
goings and comings
different ways
let the sparks
ignite your love
and fill up your days
take a step in the right direction…

happy new year 2010 everyone.

It’s not always coming
how it was planned
dreams are far away
holding on to something
and burning your hands…

many thanks for all your visits and feedback. I hope my work is an inspiration for you.

the image posted today is a compilation that spans some curated work throughout the year 2009.

cheers and have a good start in 2010, VT.

I saw you
flying by
with a purple scarf
leaving me
behind.
you pulled
a fiery tail
behind you.
for a long time,
I wondered what burned,
it must have been your heart…

I could reach up
into the dark sky
catch some stars
hold them
like shiny diamonds
and then return
to a world
less
than
I would
like it
to be…

in the garden of delight
try my fruit of lust
the sweetest sin of all

feel
this moment
little thoughts
of the future
stars fall
from the sky
and kiss you
like a a wave

like a vagabond
flying
through
the hallway
and found
your room…

starting 2010 :)

nothing hinders the love
neither door nor bolts
it breaks through everything
it’s without beginning
it takes you to the sky
strikes its wings eternally
and will swing – for ever…

I had some drops of potassium tetrachloroplatinate left over plus a bit more of other stuff and I thought that it might be enough to create a platinum-palladium print. I’m quite happy with the results, so here I share it with you. to learn more about this printing process, please visit http://www.alternativephotography.com/articles/art139.html

Have a great weekend, take care :)

I will remember
every dream about you
all my first impressions
of my new possession…
