ORGAN RHYTHMS UNDER THE RAIN

Sound : Stefan Christoff
Endless days of cold snow.
The crisp air hugs my body,
The trees I live next to
remain dormant throughout the winter.
I stare up at them, excited to see the Spring shift.
I tell them, I love you.
I'm waiting for Spring.
I'm waiting for Organ Rhythms Under the Rain.
Camera: Bolex
Medium: 16mm Montreal during Winter
