Description Time, applying a form of Occam's razor mercilessly to those precious memories, until all that remains is a sketch...

Apart from the frame (GIMP, PhotoFiltre), this is pure Apophysis - no sneaky soft-focus filters giving that fading look

My entry for =milleniumsentry 's Black & White contest .

As soon as I saw the title I got the following lyrics in my head.

i'll cross my heart and hope to die.
but the needle's already in my eye.
and all the world's weight is on my back and i don't even know why.
and what i used to think was me is just a fading memory.
i looked him right in the eye and said "goodbye."

Now this picture will forever be attached to Nine Inch Nails

Wow! I'm chuffed that it's recalled such powerful lyrics. If I'd have known them, they'd have been included

This piece has a great architectural feel to it and is a good one to use the B&W color combination.

IDeviant In reply to Phoenix-22 [2007-08-06 08:14:23 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! It was the rather lucky result of applying one of the tube scripts to an existing B&W piece - I was rather pleased with the natural fade and the structure

Good luck in the contest, I really like this, and the four slightly hidden circles are a nice touch.
