I didn’t plan this photograph. The other night a bout of insomnia caught me, couldn’t sleep. I got up and went downstairs at around 3 AM. just to do something for a little while. Rolling in bed wasn't working.

In the dead of night I began browsing thru the wintery photographs I had taken over the past few months, perhaps inspired by the wonderful blizzard we had a couple of days earlier. It was most certainly the last proper snowfall for the winter. Now, three days later all snow is gone.

When the trees in this one from January caught my eye I remembered I had some leftover Tintin Moon rocket photos from another project. I chose one that seemed about right and pasted it behind the trees to see how it looked. I cleaned it a little next day and that’s it.

I like how this one turned up, almost by itself. It’s a little different than my usual posts I guess. More dreamlike, a snapshot.

But why a rocket in the woods? Again? I really don’t know. It felt like a good idea at 3 AM.

For a few years that thing has been there. Nobody seems to know the owner, there is no activity around it. It's abandoned for sure. Looks haunted.

Some day I'm gonna break into it.
