///

I cannot think that little figure Death,
Over whose smooth pate we look at life,
Will be our forced fate, our dark care.

I cannot imagine him a serious threat;
I am alive, have time to build; my blood
Is red for longer than the roses are.

My mind is broader than the game of terror
In which he taunts us with his bitter tease.
I am the world
He fell from in his dire error.

Like the wandering monks whose each return
We come to dread, he echoes their disguise
We need to know: is he the same each time,
Or two, ten, or perhaps thousands strong?
Only the yellow hand we recognize,
Nakedly reaching, alien -- near --
there; and there;
near as from our own sleeve all along.

by Rainer Maria Rilke, Der kleine Tod

I saw AlexandrinaAna's feature and I recognized your photos instantly (not because of the signature). Your style is unique.

You're, as always, too kind!
I think they are all recognizeable. : )
I also recognized yours immediately!

This probably was not your intentionΒ judging by the words contained in the descriptionΒ but it looks like a scene from a horror movie. Anyway it's a good photo.

Yeah I see what you mean. If there would be a scarecrow I would have had hiding behind him and gave him my arms (with sickle).
I guess cornfields are somehow a typical horrormovie element.

Thanks for your comment!

Are taking pause to recalculate the equation or in regret of your solution?Β 
Also, I like the sweeping composition of the scene.Β

I wonder who he is hunting... It looks like there's a silhouette running in the distance, in that clearing.

Iskaeldt In reply to HelevornArt [2016-02-06 07:43:24 +0000 UTC]

Maybe he's hunting the half moon.

Ah, I see what you mean!
Thanks for your interpretation.

head is down... perhaps he don't wanted to do it.
Is calm there.. so calm as wind can be, so isn't. everything in the air before or after.
he still went out straight to head next to the corn bullets.

a lot interpretations can be about this photo but I think... only in creepy and dark sides, what makes me that I unlike it.
and also I like cause if photos give to people chances for more thinking about - it makes then, that this art is high quality.
So, congratulations for you and for all who did it.

I guess I understand what you mean!


But death is just like to be born, and to be born is just like something become death.
It's just a stage; there's nothing creepy about it - but I also agree, most people call me creepy.

I dislike the naivity of dreaming, but I also need to dream sometimes , cause reality is cold and clear, without emotions like happiness or regret.
It's everday the same, you want to life, you need to pull others down for that, you want to get equity, you get beaten for that like your heart beats, you need to rest.
You need to stay up again, but in the end you will be seperated, you'll die alone; human is and always was egostic, no matter if someone think he/she is free and want to help other people;
they always think at first about themselve; even if they try it the other way. Machines can't work without fuel. Body needs soul, and machines need fuel.

Anyway, it's going to another direction like this simple picture want to talk about it. : )
