Poppy - A Sign of Fleeting Life

  • Photographer
    Lina Stepaniuk

The poppy is a symbol of memory of those killed in the wars for freedom and independence. It symbolizes a drop of blood... When these beautiful flowers bloom in the summer, every morning I go out to the meadows and admire... This fragile flower lives only one day... There has been a war in my country for the third year... A lot of blood and tears spilled... On Remembrance Day we hang a poppy brooch on our clothes... And we believe in our Victory!

I dreamed of being a photographer, but only now am I taking steps in photography. As a child, I shot on film and printed black and white photographs myself. But now I love color and I love capturing the beauty of my world.
