"...The world was divided into two countries.
Every photograph taken in the first was of people.
Every photograph taken in the second showed none."
--excerpt from the poem Genesis by Mary Ruefle

That perception is not ready to be perceived. The act of perceiving is an effort and its outcome as well as its inception is probabilistic.
Between the probabilities and the perceptions, beauty or read it as reality is elusive.
Dark Moods is my imagination playing tricks to itself. Based on public domain photography from Pixabay, each image is composed of multiple images forming a state of its own.
