Happy to show you such a stunning photo-story by the NYC based photographer James de Leon today. He took these expressive and analogue photos of his friend Nika De Carlo who is also a photographer. Enjoy this cool, mystical series full of enchanting colours!

“The weight of his jacket rested on her shoulders.  It smelled like his last cigarette.  The warmth a reminder that he still cared, a continuous winter hug. But the insulation also kept the sadness in, and it never left.  It entangled the day and thickened in the night alongside the brambles beside a frozen creek. Long wooden elongated fingers emerging from the thinnest layer of ice.  The sadness never left. And she hoarded it like a stack of old newspapers.”
