"It's not that I've been dishonest... It's just that I loath reality." A concept image of a man locked away for being deemed a danger to himself, and others around him. Lying, for him, is a way to create his own truth, thus current society deemed this unproductive.

Sorry about the EXIF data. I took this with a really old lens. It's been out of production for about 50 years, so my camera thinks there wasn't even a lens attached (similar to when using a Lensbaby)
It was an old 50mm NIKKOR-S f/1.4. Taken at f/1.4.

Uhm wow. Daily Deviation! That's really flattering. I'm beyond shocked, humbled, and... Dumbfounded really! I can't seem to find the words to express my thanks, and gratitude. Thank you for all the comments. I will get back to you, I promise! But I have to go at the moment.

Yes. There's an American remake to the Swedish version which is titled "Let The Right One In"
They're both based off the same book though.

I think the fact that he had the mental wherewithal to write on the glass backwards, so that potential rescuers could better understand his message, ought to count in his favor.

Very cool, I think the image of insanity is conveyed well, not only with the writing becoming jittery towards the end, but also the fact it's very bright but cold, kinda reminds me of being in a hospital
