Winter holidays are a sleepy and tranquil time by the very nature, especially when the nature is freezingly cold (as it should, in fact, in winter). To somehow wake up, we went to one of the nearest forest, to make a short walk. It was all quite and still, no movement, no speed, time stopped. It was getting dark too, so when I tried to take some pictures of the beautiful thickets, the exposure was too long, and the images start getting blurry.

At some point I decided not to fight with force, but go along with, namely, I started to deliberately take the pictures with very long exposures, and move camera during the shots. All of a suddenly, previously frozen environment exploded and burst in ‘flames’. There were hidden energy hidden between every branch, behind every tree, and even earlier indifferent skies became agile and playful.

So is the futures; they seem to be ‘laying there’, as if ‘waiting’ for us somewhere ahead. In reality (or in hyper-reality?) they are already here, and around us, what is needed is ‘just’ another way to look at this surroundings.
