A True Photographer

By [Mirime]


The true photographer of fairies must be brave...

To risk his extremities in the cold… his hands, that is...

To kneel or possibly lie in dirt, mud, snow, or garbage to get just the right shot...

To occasionally be chased by large dogs or similar guardians for trespassing...

To venture into buildings that are really falling apart… (sometimes to live in them, considering a freelancer’s salary)...

To not pass out from the smell of developing chemicals in a small, cramped darkroom...

To insist that the fairies he sees aren’t just because the chemicals have gone to his brain...

To not be afraid of the dark...

And most importantly...

To never stop looking!
