Could be that two people who have been friends...have a lot to chat about eh!..

be a good thing cos they would never get bored!

Terrific work on this smoky piece pal..

Spooky..I see I will have to mend my ways....R.

Like to agree with your opinion as described in your narrative OFT (Owd Fella Tick). To me you've spoken very wise words!

Thanks for the image. Think you're the only one up till now who succeeded to visualize gossiping ghosts.

Regards, Cornelius.

PS: to me the editors note is superfluous, as in a democratic world there shall be freedom of speech.

Look good in B/W,Good luck in the challenge.

Very thought provoking Tick and excellent work.

Nice one for challenge,

Has to be something, 'cause they'd grow tired of tellin' ghost tales real fast!

BOL in the challenge...

These two blurred friends could have been on Twilight Zone, Tick. I like how you did it in black & white. In some blurred society, you may find this hanging on a blurred wall.

This is really intense, Tick. Hear-say can be damaging, and frequently inaccurate. I think beheading might be illegal, though.

Very deep but I like deep lol and very nicely put together with very true story behind this art work.Did you know ......lol.....

You really have outdone yourself with this one Tick, your narrative said it so well, and this is intense, and what a fantastic creative work, and out of the box for you.

A very eerie illustration, Ron, that reminds me so much of the images of the dead people Ebenezer Scrooge experiences at the behest of his old parter Marley. The ones I'm talking of are part of England's Northern Ballet Company's version of the story. They are very ethereal and very dead, with slightly blurred faces covered by flowing white rags which, to me anyway, makes your dead folks even more believable as a graphic. I also believe that we pay later for what we do now... the alternative is depressing. This image would have been a good contest submission if the next contest was "Focus Feature" but the way that "Macro" is catching up I don't think "Focus" has a chance. -Nik

What about written gossip Tick. Do the magazine and newspaper people will face that fate too? Good one for the B/W challenge.

Raj made a good point here that you have neglected, dear SOT.
But do not let us be too scrupulous over such details. Idea is very much correct and like our Count I feel I need to correct my behaviour although I am not any too gossipy person in general. :)
Most fitting contribution to BWC by all means and would be my first choice given chance [unlikely as I have failed to make any significant contributions myself...]
Thanks and congratulations, dear SOT.

How the heck did you do this? Its frickin' cool Tick!!! And amazing and superb!!! Bravo!!!

Eek - scary thought and image Tick but I think so true. Now please show us where we may go if we are kind and helpful souls - encourage us to strive for a better place :)

That's it! I am done gossiping for all time! I don't want to get stuck WITH therm! LOL. Very interesting image, Tick. Well done!

I know what's going on here Tick. It's all smoke and mirrors! An eerie and beautiful image.

Eerie and thought-provoking...they have a tortured look despite the lack of features on their faces...good one for the challenge.

A mystical image with thought provoking commentary TicK. Highly artistic, in both senses. Bravo.

Spooky and cool work Tick

i bit spooky & well justified in your narrative TicK, i couldnt agree more. so much more easier to lean a helping hand then to criticise one. however it seems to just be human nature of a bored mind that picks that path i suppose.
really nice effect. somewhat like your train with the zoom effect & that metal look, very unique & useful look of texture.

That's not the way I heard it happen.

Nice post work. Ron. Eerie presentation and nice textures in the image.
