Without by LynEve

casechaser: I especially like "Without" in black and white (and gray). You set a tone and spiritual meaning with it.

The loved one is first seen in black and then in gray, as if he is leaving his earthly body as is in movement towards the light.

Possibly July 31st is an anniversary date and one which will always be the memory for the reality of this day. If so, love the memories, allow them to play over and over again. The companionship, once enjoyed in reality, will continue to be shared in the fond memories of your mind.

Bless you Lyn. ~~ John

The unfortunate by Zethus

Con_: Floris... I don't care for the subject... in my mind, there is no way to make a picture, of a homeless person (sleeping in a cardboard box!), attractive (appealing). A subject of that nature can only have a negative impact on a photo in my opinion. Even the tell-tale buggy to the right hiding in the dark is a negative for me. But that's me! :o)

The title is appropriate. It was your request that got me to look at your image closely. Hopefully somebody who can separate the artistic skill from the effect of the image will deal with your request...

The fact that I can react like this to your image could be a positive for you... depending upon your intentions!

Oh... by the way, I think this could fit into a contest Caedes is having right now... for Emptiness. Enter it to have yet another kind of opinion expressed. Navigation... Contest - should get you to where you need to go! :o)

Shattered by casechaser

blithe16: you can find beauty in the despair, and cruelty in the warmth, i agree with the quote. this piece caught my attention.

rvdb: John congratulations with your win in the contest well deserved.

Rob

solita17: I like what Les pointed out, that is, the very warm palette in juxtaposition with subject matter and title. As my husband says, "We've already gone crazy." So I've been there a time or two, making this very subjective for me. Absolutely a work of art.
