Description (And the clock stands still)
2014, November

or...: Iskældt; Der Tod: Dear Friend


///tune:
Sieh' durch das Fenster, das den Friedhof dir zeigt
Wie ein Gemälde derer, die schieden
An Grabsteinen kauern von Kummer gezeichnet
Schluchzend jene, die blieben

Sieh' das Bild, das die Anfurten dir zeigt
Ein Gemälde derer, die schieden
Vom Nebel verschluckt und für immer verloren
Für jene, die sie einstmals liebten

Und unter deinen nachdenklichen Schritten
Knirschen der Sand und die gläsernen Scherben
Zerschlagener Uhren im Schatten der Mauern
Die schweigend erzählen vom ewigen Sterben
Nocte Obducta - Gemälde derer, die Schieden

It looks to me as if the life of the leaping rat has stopped in mid-air. The framing and symmetry bring to an eye-catching focus things usually left to the sidelines, making this an oddly meditative and melancholy piece.

I'm glad you're able to think about it in this way!
Guess most people just imagine "aah... that's odd, so gross!"... (:

It's a bold move for sure, but that makes it interesting! You've managed to make it look beautiful too.

Nice symbolism and ritualism, I like how it's displayed and photographed. 
I'm a bit baffled why no groups will take it, it seems more respectful than offensive.

Thanks a lot... glad you like it!

Maybe I've just tried it with wrong groups. It's maybe not "horror or gore" enough to put it into those groups, or they specialize on "Zombi-stuff"; and for "normal" groups it's too macabre or the quality is too bad.
I usually prefer groups which don't accept "everything", having a approval time; cause it's much easier to follow them and your inbox won't be stuffed with "everything".

I've seen a similar picture to this... it's really lovely. econita.deviantart.com/art/Sta…
I'll try it with those groups; it's equal anyway. I was just a bit upset I got a decline after decline. If it's a "quality-factor" I can understand it well, but I don't have the chance to take another picture of this with a better camera. xD

I know what you mean about following groups, I've got 13,701 pictures to look at. I think I know which group is responsible for most of them, I better cancel my membership. 
I doubt it's a question of quality. If so, you and your cat need to go back out on the hunt :]
You're right, Econita 's photo is lovely.

Check my profile page and look at the groups I belong to. Almost all would be glad to feature this great photo!

Hm, it's a great advise, thanks a lot!
I really tried nearly every group in my watch/memberlist I was thinking they would accept it, but they all timed out or declined it. [I didn't really ask why, maybe I should have done so..]
It was about 6 to 8 groups, so I'd like to ask if there are similiar groups to contribute this one.

Should be no reason. it is well done, it is not obscene (they will accept a lot of stuff), it is not fomenting a riot--hehehe.
check my groups.

Thanks, I'm really glad you like it!

I think it's too strange for most people, and maybe the picture have been better organized.
I had the idea in mind that the two pieces of the mouse and the clock/time flow into one thing through the leaf veins.
