Description

vanishing

This is the first photo of a new project where I want to take a self portrait for all twelve months of a year. I hope it'll help me to reflect on every month as it passes and take a photo that represents them and also myself as I change along the way.

This was my october:
- spent the first five days with my friend Lisa in Berlin
- ignored what I had planned on doing back home
- worked quite a lot and enjoyed my free days
- spent a lovely afternoon with Seb when I thought I didn't have any plans
- had a fun “blue monday” night with my friends
- sprained my ankle and therefore couldn't do any sports
- noticed that our ideas for meetups run short
- became better friends with Julian
- was so ready and it still didn't find me
- spent a great night and day with Chrisse, Nina and Julian in Stuttgart
- made birthday presents for two of my best friends
- went to bed earlier and got up earlier for once
- rediscovered my love for photography
- got over the feeling of missing out on autumn
- found the most beautiful of places
- realized that things are so unsteady

Maybe october is really about vanishing, about changes and colors and myriads of beautiful things surrounded and embraced by the whispering of the wind, and maybe there's no sound at all, only silence.

Time
stands
still.

And there's this bird in the tree singing her own songs since a long time. She's a female, a nightingale just for the sound of the word as much as for the beat of her heart, and maybe she feels a little bit lost up there. Three times maybe, so three secret wishes for you and for me - shh, don't tell anyone about it! Secrets are made for children, and wishes will lead us all home.
