“I see macro photography as a magical portal into another world — full of wonders and mystery.”
— Alexey Kljatov, photographer
When in the night I lay awake The moon became a silver lake Across it swam a single swan That turned into a white snowflake It grew until the lake was gone Beneath the crystals, clear as drawn Then burst into a million stars That fell until the break of dawn Like rays of light through prison bars Like gems adorning crowns of tsars They fell as I succumbed to sleep Like healing drops upon fresh scars Live for the Love of it, Sasha A.
