The Story of Black Dots

My hiking trip had to be cancelled as it was a rainy Sunday morning accompanied by occasional lightning. I managed to take a series of pictures in front of my house, and re-arranged them in a Charlie Chaplinish way. This could drive my and your gloomy mood away.







"I had no idea of the character. But the moment I was dressed, the clothes and the make-up made me feel the person he was. I began to know him, and by the time I walked onto the stage he was fully born." -- Charlie Chaplin
