Polina's Eyes

Polina and I crossed paths yesterday and we took the opportunity to shoot together. There is familiarity in her movement and gaze - has me reminiscing of an old friend. Maybe one day they'll shoot together.
Her eyes says it all...enjoy.

Me, bike and the cold road tonight...

 Me, bike and the cold road tonight. As I arrive at the middle of the bridge, the lit buildings stretch out on the water and surround me on all sides. The view takes over.

  

  It's a cold and lonely journey back home but I can never resist to take a minute and watch Boston's reflection shimmer on the Charles River.

L'arbre de Vie

The Tree of Life...

We start by a Fundamental, a basis, a ground structure. This is the thickest/strongest part of the Tree: The Root.
We then start building character, principles, morals, details. We spread, we sprout, our branches reach out.
Then the most beautiful part occurs. We bloom. Of everlasting fractals, flowers, pedals and leaves. We pass it on and continue the growth.

New Secret Spot.

After a short bike ride, passing the mysterious forest I found some cool spots. Tresspassing occurd - took the risk of getting fined. But hey I don't cause mischief... I simply capture it. And besides, if a place is forbidden, then it is a place to shoot in my book. Must go back there..
