لأقمار مشوهة... و أحجار
و لكني نسيت.. نسيت يا مجهولة الصوت:

محمود درويش – عاشق من فلسطين

Photograph: an image of the world inscribed by light rather than by the hand of man (Talbot called the medium “The Pencil of Nature”).
Capturing the invisible remains an ultimate horizon for both scientific and artistic practice.
