books

"Books let us into their souls 
and lay open to us the secrets of our own..."
                                             William Hazlitt

A good book is a whirlpool that gets us drawn from the first page... it's a whole world that can be full of unsolvable puzzles, magic mysteries and amazing discoveries... but this world can also be populated by ordinary people (just like us), people that live through hard drama, horrors of war, wonderful adventures or sweet moments of the first love...
Books are our timeless teachers, devoted friends, fellow travellers... sometimes they are our best advisors, but sometimes - a source of our uncertainty and worries...
My today's pictures are about Irina and her love for books and the dreamworld they give to us...

 

i'm not a girl...

"I'm not a girl, not yet a woman.  
All I need is time, a moment that is mine, 
While I'm in between..."
                                        Britney Spears

It's so great when you look in sparkling eyes of a young beauty, listen to the sweet voice, yet childishly ringing, but already with grown-up notes... to see how movements of one person harmoniously combine an angularity of a teen-age girl with smoothness and flexibility of a woman... our walk with Katya reminded me of that wonderful time  «in between» Britney sang about...

she's like the wind

"She's like the wind through my tree...  
She rides the night next to me..."
                            P.Swayze&S.Widelitz

My heroine for today is Ksenia... she is an impetuous and quick personality, thereby - full of surprises... she's like the wind, like Amazon with sparking eyes... my work with her was a very interesting experience...
