A short video based on Ray Bradbury,s 1950 short story of the same name. A poem by Sara Teasdale was the inspiration for this story, which appears in his book " The Martian Chronicles" Teasdale's poem was written shortly after WWI, and wonders if nature would mourn the passing of mankind. Bradbury's story is placed in a future setting, after a nuclear war.The last house standing carries on without it's owners, unaware of their passing. A new phenomenon, the Nuclear shadow , left by a person or thing, flashed onto a surface in an instant, is used by Bradbury to great effect. Two songs by Nox Arcana seemed to fit the mood of the story. I claim no rights to the works of Mr. Bradbury or Nox Arcana and give all rights and credits to them or their representatives.I wish to thank both for creating these wonderful works. The original video was taken in and around Peoria, IL, and Springdale Cemetery. Please rate and comment ,plus share with a friend via you tube or facebook.
