Unhappy Beauty in sadness and sandness in beauty



I love jigsaws.

The state of my love
The state of my love

Some time ago I found the biggest and the most interesting one. Since then I tried to put it together, everyday, but could not.


Amazing Texture
Amazing Texture

It occupies my dreams and casts a disconcerting shadow over the world when I am awake, but there is a tiny moment in between, when my mind does not know if I am awake or dreaming .


That sings so many sad songs...
That sings so many sad songs

That is when and only when I see it clearly. It is my own broke heart!


Why do we always focus on the beautiful one?
Why do we always focus on the beautiful one?

I hate jigsaws.

Perhaps a good topic for an assignment, the shots are great. I particularly like the third one.

Thanks you. Yes I think so too. The third one has such a sad air about it for me. I reminded me of someone who is old and wrinkled and riddled by holes of experience, good and bad.

Thanks for making the invisible, visible and using your creative thought and images to gently remind us to see all not just some.

The very last shot really tells the story. It makes one think about about beauty.

Awesome, thought provoking shots and especially sentiment. Very simple and yet so deep. Thanks for sharing it. You got me thinking.
