about this world.. and beyond.

santorini, greece

I was walking under the warm sun, looking for a piece of shadow to can have a rest, when suddenly I saw him..
The man was there, sitting on a thick wall, and watching far away..
I didn't know his age, I didn't know where had he come from (the place was full of tourists)... I liked the image.. the architecture, his attitude.. and I shot..
But when i came near, I saw his eyes... his face..
He looked like a statue.. unable to go anywhere.. and i tried to pervade his hard skin.. and i tried to read his stony soul...
Nothing...
I went on walking.. wondering about this crazy world.. and beyond...

what a wonderful story... and though I think you heard his soul...

un lieu calme qui prédispose à la méditation, c'est excellent.

My choice:
whenever visiting Santorini
this statuette looks disembodied
from its bronze substance
carrying Sil's open-faced romantic soul..
along with all her lovely shots

Pure poetry, both in the image and in the words.

image of impact; that human figure, al time same symbol and "caricatura" of the man, as in the creations of Dalì or Magritte... will watch towards the sea, from where has come
