Final thoughts

This has been an over a month long project, an I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. This is something I've always liked to do; killing flowers; because I really like dried petals. I'm always using them in letters and arts and crafts, et cetera. I usually wait until the flower gets pretty old, or leave it to dry in a more decent pose, but here I decided to do the whole process artificially, and add some poetry to it. It's easier to control the outcome this way.

As to what this all means, I don't even know myself.

Extra pictures can be found in the Google Drive folder right below. And I would like to reiterate: I worry about releasing pictures in full quality here because, when I enjoy someone's photography, I just gotta have it in my collection. The worst thing is having low quality works in a private collection, and never having the opportunity to either purchase or get for free said work, for archival purposes. This way, I allow and encourage the download of original files from pictures I've taken, if the reader gets attached to a capture or two. BUT, please don't be a dick and repost my work without giving proper credit. Credit is the least I ask for, but if you're a good samaritan, be sure to hit me up through my contact e-mail in the About section, if you are using my work for non-commercial purposes (does not include private collections).

Also, pictures from the very beginning up to "Amiable reminder" were taken with a Motorola Moto G5 Plus. Pictures from "Rebirth" were taken with a Sony DSC-H100.

You can use these pictures for non-commercial purposes, I probably won't oppose, but give proper credits and let me know through the e-mail on the About section if you do.
