The following is the first image from my latest project. This photo series titled "The Firebird" will be a photographic representation of an old Slavic fairy tale of the same name.
The story tells of a Tsar in possession of a tree bearing golden fruit. One day the Tsar discovered that someone was stealing his golden apples, and thus sends his three sons to investigate. This first image represents the magical apples that grow in the Tsar's orchard.
The full story can be read here.
All images from this series can be found on this page, which will be updated as the project continues.
