A few months ago I had in mind to create a calendar with landscape photographs I’ve taken throughout 2024 but my work schedule made it impossible to see the project come to light. It would be too late to do it now in time for 2025 but here is the selection I had in mind. Feel free to add your own photograph and send it in return instead of a Christmas or a New Year card. Maybe a photograph that represents your 2024 or your hope for 2025.
Have a Happy Winter Season! La Multi Ani!

There are no doors
No windows
Where we are
The black air stops me
Seeing how you look like
As you sit on the chair
Sipping the cold tea
I can only imagine your face
Reflected over an old map of innocence
There is nothing to say now
All that had to be spoken
Is spoken for
The non-words fill the landscape
With stillness
The beautiful dead bodies
Are floating outside the city limits
Taken away by tides.
