tears of time
stone
crying for lost names

(pic: an old gravestone, mounted on the outer walls of a medieval church in northern Germany - the 'black tears' are traces of rust from the iron used to mount the stone)

b/w picture of a 17th century grave stone, beneath the commemorative inscription the coat of arms of the deceased - traces of black rust and soot running across the stone, that is vertically mounted on an outside wall, giving the impression of black tears - spoooky

the lone house on a windy ridge, lime stone, bright in late Autumn's sun, surrounded by dense oak forest, steep slopes, overgrown trunks, ivy, fern. The old door swings open, heavy scent of smoke. A whisper -

stories by the hearth
written in
ashen memories

close-up photography of a red hose on the upper deck of a ferry - the floor is painted in a metallic blue. A small puddle of rain water in front of it forms small ripples from the ship's vibrations and wind

a statement in light, an unexpectedly luminous sunset on a November evening - and as, juxtaposition, a picture taken earlier that same day. #Autumn: contrast

silent forest, where once lively roads met, a ruin, hidden by the seasons of two millennia. I wonder, what life was like, what dreams where like, whether it matters - tears were salty and the sun shone

the way
fallen leaves float in the brook -
to vanish

b/w photography showing an rock formation (calcareous deposit) in a cave, wet from dripping water, its forms and shape resembling a dragon skull, complete with eyes, mouth half opened, teeth, scale skin - fantasy is the best sculptor and nature loves to comply

along an old, abandoned cobblestone road, between forest and river, drifting with last leaves, listening to Dowland, humming, dreaming, remembering, hoping for the sun to stay a little while -
Picture showing an old cobblestone road in a forest - bright light shining through yellow leaved (is that actually a word?) trees . Much bright, very autumn.

France, a surprise around every corner, traces of the past - on a grim, rainy, #moody afternoon I stumbled upon this château in the middle of nowhere. #Autumn took a break to bath the place in silent, pale #light. Charente, 2021
