Discreet Dementia
Confessions of the Unscathed and Observant
He made no confession.
He escaped alive,
only by a miracle.
Moved
by the tears and entreaties
of the taciturn youth.
On his way
to lifelong banishment.
The people,
by whom he was idolized,
Laugh,
at the presumption
of his noble frame.
To the insane
passions of martyrs,
He belonged.
feasting their eyes
on his scarcely-healed scars.
Gratified.
Enabled.
to meet suffering
with a smiling face.
Shall we not see him
covered with shame?
Languishing in confinement.
a good citizen,
Possessed.
not only of a great mind.
Tired, of its capricious fanaticism.

Capturing Magic
In the world of photography, timing is the key to everything. While skilled compositions and technical proficiency are undoubtedly crucial, the perfect lighting can create the perfect photo. Nowadays, we can determine any light ourselves and are no longer dependent on any natural light source, thanks to the developed technology. We can turn every day into a night by using the right filters. And we can illuminate every night to be seen as a day. A typical process, especially in the film industry.
