Photography is so multifaceted that today I can shoot the past as a fact, and tomorrow the subjects will be the same, but the message will be completely different. More precisely, it will not be at all – very often I try to capture only a set of elements consisting of lines, geometric shapes, color spots.
In Zarya (a settlement in the Vologda district), dugouts stand along the tiny Tarabiyevka river.
But this time was just the very time when I was shooting the graphicity of the landscape around me.
Everything had this in mind: two lanterns of different color temperatures, a layered mystical sky and wooden structures mixed with graphic shadows of bare trees.
It was more important to capture not every dilapidated shed, but the state that loomed together with all the components.
This is more about the depth of the frame, and not about the meaning.
Although there is much more sense in the depth of the image than on its surface.
It's always very quiet in such places, but this time the silence was just vacuum.
Even occasionally barking dogs did not return to reality.
If in spring you can hear different rustling in the grass, birds sing, and in summer grasshoppers can chirp, then in deep autumn in windless weather away from the city you can hear the slightest movement of air from your own movement in space.
But at some point a light wind blew, and the rustling of dried grass filled the area with something alive, bringing me back to earth from another planet.
But even on earth there was a feeling of unreality.
Miracles happened this evening!
You think a miracle is something out of the ordinary, something unreal... Yes! And so it was!
A miracle is the whole chain of events that has been going on with me since mid–July...if not before. And so many coincidences in my life have never happened before!
A miracle is when what you imagined in your head and what you dreamed about comes true before your eyes online, in reality, you can feel it, touch it.
And it makes me feel a little uncomfortable...
Because it proves that thought is material and feasible. And with this, you need to be careful in your thoughts.
All, absolutely all, the places I have been to are closely connected with these events.
Maybe someday I will reveal everything that happened to me...but so far this is only a state of miracle.
