Uke 17/52: Kontraster (Contrasts)

The Burned House - © Jelrik Nylund-van Berkel
This week was the theme of 52uker project, chosen by Ståle Ertzgaard, "Contrasts". There are contrasts all around us and it was just to pick and choose. The idea I came across was a photo with many horrible contrasts. Two weeks ago there was a large fire in the village where I live. In this fire were three families who lived in this house suddenly homeless. In the middle of the night started a fire in the basement and spread through the house. From quiet sleep, families thrown into complete chaos. 2 Persons were found unconscious, sent to the hospital by helicopter, but survived luckily. The contrasts are many in this picture. Color contrast, contrast between a good life and a life where you have lost everything, the contrast between fire and water that has won over the fire, the contrast between a relatively undamaged outside on the left side and a completely burned right-hand side. When I took the picture, it smelled like fire all around me in strong contrast with the spring air that is these days in the village. This house makes me quiet and let us remember how quickly life can take a completely unexpected twist that throws you into ...contrasts
