Life With Maggie

I stumbled across the pictures of Ofer Wolberger and immediately fell in love with his series "Life with Maggie." The series intentionally seeks to depict a personal photo journal or visual travel diary while it explores the idea of a character lost in space and time. Maggie is a masked female and almost always appears alone, but the blankness of her mask leaves the viewer to decide whether or not she is lonely. These are only a few of the very intriguing set of images and each stands independently in composition and quality.all Ofer Wolberger

Even better.

    And over the walls I have wended;

    The leaves are all dead on the ground,
    Save those that the oak is keeping
    To ravel them one by one
    And let them go scraping and creeping
