OH MY GOODNESS! That sounds like a terrible, terrible thing is about to happen.... chilling... might even say "gripping...."
ya think? i couldn't escape how eerie the picture seemed every time i've glanced at it in the past two weeks.
Yes, the way you've interpreted the image is uniquely disturbing. haha I would have seen it as a more magical, innocent scene... a picture not only tells a thousand words, but maybe even a thousand different stories... no?
And in some stories, it's a dead end...
Yes~ or a fork in the snow. Hey, sorry I didn't write back to this earlier... I never got a notification that alerted me that you said something back! I actually just happened upon your reply by accident! So glad I did!
