Description
There's a long story attached to this shot. Please read. It's important.So here it goes.
Everything was calm. I took a pear out of the refregirator to take make a nice fruit picture as my good friend Francois Cote had done weeks ago (see his work : [link] ).
Then at the precise moment when I dropped the pear on the table something caught my attention. I felt a simple and gentle breeze on my cheek. Then I turned back to see if I let the window opened then I heard : **SNAP**, turned back again and then! DAMN! A ninja had cut my pear in to half.
I haven't seen a thing, I only heard the sound of the katana going through the juicy fruit. I'm not sure if you can see it on this picture, but it is CLEAR that the cut was made by a very sharp katana since the pear haven't even moved... And the cut is so clean. WHOA!
I'm lucky that he wasn't heading for my head.
Still I'm not sure why have he came my way... was this a warning from Francois not to try to make the same picture as him? Or maybe it's was a "ninjaesque" way to tell me that some people want to kill me? Or he was sent by the future to tell me that if I don't do anything, America will be torn appart by a second civil war (this is CLEARELY represent by the two part of the pear, top = north and bottom = south) the connections are all there... I just can't find what he meant...
Who knows... I'll have to be on my guards all time now.

This was shot in my old living room on a white wall. But, the wall wasn't white enough, so this white wall is fake. Or half-fake. Let's say enhanced

veery nice!
thank you so much for your comment!
actually it's not a flower, it's a very expensive berry.
these are most oftenly met in Lapland (Lappi), north Finland.
I don't like the taste, but they look nice - don't they?

no, not friendly at all. In fact, ninjas are NEVER friendly. They just slice in dice!

Hmm maybe he was a ninja gardian angel and he was helping you cut your pear so you wouldn't choke on it?
