Lot Essay

'In the process of love we tend to have a lot of conversations to take the next step. Regardless of how innocent or how risky the next action may be, these thoughts always cross our minds. The angel and the demon on our shoulders tend to pull us from one side to the other. In this set of unique images, the conversation is kept for the viewer to conclude. However, what is set for you to see is that pure, virginal, and innocent first step taken into love.'
(Saeed Khalifa, 2012).
