….cats: how not to like them?!?!
Even in times of quarantine and social isolation as I live in a very little neighborhood (low traffic of cars and people) I have been making my walks almost daily.

— and Kerouac’s brilliant text also applies to Gordon Parks’ photo.
— everyone’s life matters, regardless of their skin color.

Some new shots on tree trunks and branches that have been interpreted by several photographer friends as different views of being humans or animals. Continue reading “anthropomorphic photography or pareidolia”
“Still Life”: fun silhouettes of human and animal figures
In my entire life, nature photography (animals, trees, leaves, flowers, landscapes, etc.) has always been present. But, today I want to show something more unusual about nature. Continue reading ““Still Life”: fun silhouettes of human and animal figures”
