<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A few years ago, one morning while having breakfast, my eye fell on an English biscuit tin.
It was a beautiful tin box, depicting a winter landscape with children pushing a sled. The scene reminded me a lot of the public park in front of my house \u2014 only the season was different.
It would be interesting, I thought, to photograph the tin in that setting… but I\u2019d have to wait for it to snow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Months passed, and then one day, finally, the snow arrived.
I grabbed the tin, my camera tripod, and ran to the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It didn\u2019t take long for me to realize that capturing this shot wouldn\u2019t be easy.
When the tin was in focus, the background blurred \u2014 and vice versa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After many attempts, I finally found the right balance; the first photo was complete.
Would I be able to find other contexts and take more?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It seemed an impossible task \u2014 but I\u2019ve always been drawn to challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first step was to find more tins. So I reached out to a few collectors in the field.
Like most collectors, they were, alas, very protective and reluctant to lend their treasures.
So my search moved to eBay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things went better there, though the problem was that tins \u2014 especially the antique ones \u2014 cost a fortune, and auctions were fierce battles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Slowly, my collection grew, along with the pressure of not being able to photograph them properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But then, something miraculous happened \u2014 as if a higher power were guiding me.
For every tin, I found the perfect setting: sometimes close to home, sometimes in distant, unfamiliar places, hundreds of kilometers away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After several years, the project was complete.
I managed to photograph around thirty tins \u2014 a small miracle accomplished!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
