Those who have passed way are present in quite a few contributions to the Mirror Project. Some participants, in perhaps an attempt to feel emotionally closer or to simply pay tribute to their departed relatives or friends, seem to feel the need to share their feelings and experiences with all of us. Nostalgia, respect, recognition, sorrow, ...all these and more are present in the texts -- to which I give great importance -- accompanying the selected photographs. Sometimes, the expression of the contributor's feelings requires many words; sometimes, just very few -- perhaps enigmatic -- are needed. ("the day tiffiny died"). If, as the classic author stated, "Life is just a parenthesis in Nothingness", this selection becomes a tribute to those awaiting us ...nowhere?
