Aspects of a Feather







Before it got detached it was part of a flying apparatus. Now disconnected, it can only fly, directionless, if a breeze blows it; or some playful child ties it to a string and pulls it through the air; or it becomes part of some tossed toy, like a shuttlecock.

How very alive each strand looks. Strand is not the right word perhaps but each of them seem to be pulsating though the feather itself is not connected to a 'life' any more.

Silk soft vulnerability after the steel solid lethality of the last photo.

Thank you.
