A memory from my youth comes back to me.
You go into
the woods on a bike, with a girl.
There is the smell of heather, you
can hear the wind in the fir trees, you don't dare tell her about your
love, but you feel happy, as if you were floating above the ground.
Then
you look at the clouds beyond the trees and they are fleeting.
And you
know that within an hour you'll have to go home, that tomorrow will be a
working day.
You wish you could stop that moment forever, but you
can't, it is bound to end.
So you take a photo, as if to challenge
time.
