The bright colors on the walls still display how the place was vibrant and popular to dance, have a good company and have some drinks.

Who does not want to go back to the past to uncover mysteries, try to change History’s terrible facts, fix some personal problems and, why not, buy that lottery ticket we just learned drawn yesterday?

“Hi, Ron, remember me, Cratte, C-R-A-T-T-E, Cratte?”, without being invited, a man sits at the table where Ron was having dinner.

“I’m sorry, I don’t know anyone called Cratte!”

He was dying of old age and all the members of his family, present in the vast salon, knew it.

“Another day at the office. I don’t care anymore whether the enemy is going to hear me or not. I stopped counting the days, and I don’t remember when I first arrived at this hole. The hours go by very slowly with the snow and the wind witnessing my agony while I wait for the enemy to arrive. I already wish it comes to put an end to this agony”!

The Chief of Police shrugged his shoulders in resignation when one of his aides pointed at a piece of the uniform found. “From the other side!”. This finding would change everything and would bring a roster of complications for many people, especially him.

At least for me, a 30-minute stroll after lunch with my camera helps me to relax my body, to clear my mind and to keep me focused on my micro photography projects. At night, I take a look at the pictures, usually not more than 15, I select two or three possessing a reasonable quality and throw out the remaining ones.

I was not really confident about this panorama taken right after the snow stopped following. The temperature was relatively high (around zero degrees centigrade) which meant that I had to be careful with the falling snow from the trees (it would not be a great idea to be pointing the camera and then having a big blob of wet snow hitting it…).
