Dushan Hadnadjev. My Hands Hold My Love. 2004

My Hands Hold My Love (Dushan Hadnadjev, 2004)

A Serbian peasant holds his beloved pet cat in his work-gnarled hands. This is truth.

Dushan Hadnadjev. Liturgy (a triptych). 2004

I believe that these photos speak for themselves. They were taken in Serbia in 2004. Pray for our Serbian co-religionists. They are in the right, but the godless neocons persecute them. May God give them strength.

Tatiana Vinnik. Trinity. 2005
