Sand Storm Inside of Us (02) - Limited Edition 1 of 10 Photograph

Cyprus. September. That day I woke up early in the morning as usual to make my morning run along the seaside as I loved doing it when the sun was not so hot yet and the light wind was cooling my skin down. I opened my eyes and saw that everything in our room was covered with the dust which gained a few millimeters in height. I slept on the floor using a few blankets. It was a bit colder than in the sofa and it was more comfortable for my back which reminded me about itself with a pain. The floor, phone, notebook, bed, pictures and even me everything was covered with the dark orange dust I was looking at all that around for one second trying to open my eyes after dreaming and then I jumped up as a dozens of bold water was poured on my head.

The logic didn’t work when I saw all that beauty of nature. I knew only that I had to go there. Having made my wife wake up and taken the yellow dress we were on the beach already in seven minutes. Freedom. We could barely breath and see around but we felt the freedom which fulfilled us. I could not explain that. But I thought it was the influence of the sea power deepness, the light wind and an orange color of the air which created the feeling that the haze around us was the fog of oblivion. I felt that it would take away all my fears and doubts. I knew it would help me to see the real picture which I wanted to see. The freedom of thought which was created by the natural phenomenon gave me unreal energy and made me feel happy. That moment became the start of the picture creation and a few others …
