Broken Wings

    Isn't it odd, that you as a photographer notice the most strange (or in this case disgusting) things and the first thought is "heeeey how can I use this...."? I was taking a walk and my eyes got caught on these semi-decomposed bird (magpie?) wings among the leaves on the ground. And the first reaction was that I wanted to wear them!! I carried them around with sticks for a little while (I promise you, GOD they were stinky) before I saw this tree stump, had a little walk around it to check it out, and then it was settled.

    This was my first levitation trick. It was actually not as hard as I thought it would be. But I have the stump to thank for it.

    I hope you enjoy my image as much as I do. At least I got to wear dead bird wings....

      Snyggt, Väldigt mystisk känsla som får en att fundera lite, lite film över det hela! Roligt med bilder som innehåller mer djup. Du är väldigt kreativ vilket är roligt och finns en sann artist i dig, tror dina 52 veckor kommer samla bilder av väldigt varierat slag vilket är väldigt skoj. Tiden flyger ju fram brukar man säga men ibland önskar man veckorna gick snabbare.... =P
