Terra Pyro Flower Pow Wow

Miriam Handler September 18, 2016

I don't even have a good story for these photos.  The train to the city is going to be under construction for the rest of the month, and it is raining outside, and it's Sunday..... So, here I am.  I need to practice patience with photography.  I am too sloppy and lazy.  I want to work on taking fewer, better shots.  I made a little studio in my apartment with a map of Germany as the backdrop.  Some of the nude photos are my favorite, but I will spare my mother in case she looks at this.  

Ok, maybe I have a small story.  Initially, I wanted to light all of those flowers on fire, but realized that's a terrible idea in a small apartment (I'll save this for a later date).  Lighting things on fire, or in the pretty term, "pyrotechnics", has always been an interest of mine. I shared this passion with my brother when we were very young and used to walk into the forest in our backyard to find things to light on fire.... in the forest.  Mom wasn't too happy when she found out about that.  Jordan and I used to stay up until 10 to watch Courage the Cowardly Dog.  We also enjoyed watching Spongebob Squarepants and Myth Busters. Maybe that's where the pyrotechnics ideas came from.
