Artist's Comments

Right in the middle of nowhere, on the side of a narrow, winding country road leading to a special, kind of surreal little village in Northern Chios (Pytios), a village where time, seasons and space somehow loose their meaning and news from the outer world never reach you. The bench accompanying the lonely tree overlooks nothing in particular, just a plain, barren field, yet it's the perfect place to lose yourself and to be lost for a while.

This is one of my very first attempts at Infrared photography. I hadn't dared to take a picture of this tree before because sometimes a shot doesn't capture a memory, it destroys it horribly. When I saw how infrared filters work I thought that it was the only way to capture the unreal quality of this place.

Thank you so much Emma! Yeah, i intent to experiment with IR photography a bit more, it really gives a whole new perspective to things that otherwise would look trivial and uninteresting :hug:

Well, if you get lost when you are already lost, are you even more lost? Hopeless?
Or is it that when you get lost when you're lost you're found?:confused:

Awwww, stop confusing me, I'm already lost in this train of thoughts.
