Description I dont know if letting you go was a good idea, or bad...

All I know is that I am one again alone.

I guess right and wrong is a dead point now...


-------
Background : Stock Xchange

The figure is me.

NOTE: This came out considerably different than my original intent for it was. But I think it's better in the end heh

Anyhow... Feedback is, as always, greatly appreciated, and I hope that you enjoy it.

This really moves me on a deep emotional level. I'm single and at times feel the power if this piece. I love the way you set up the light and the overwhelming strength of the building as it almost strangles the life out of the subject.

Damn that's good. Gotta love the minimal light in this one, it just accentuates the darkness even more. As usual, I stand in awe.

Ira, this image is really sad... I love it; but it's so sad. The lighting, the testure screams the underlying image and feelings of being alone... Just Wow...

The lighting is wonderful in this one...even something as simple as that seems to call out "this is lonliness". The atmosphere is very powerful..I love how you've worked the tones of your figure with the tones of the background...it blends it all very, very well. It has a kind of painting quality to it too.

The meaning I automatically got from this one I can relate to. but poet intuition told me to look for other meanings. haha With the three or four I came up with, I loved each of them. Loneliness is a killer.

Beautiful lighting in your picture, and great background it fit right with yours. <@

Very successfully evoctive...Composition couldn't be improved on ~ per ususal...All yor works seems visually poetic to me, in that sense...I ussually don't respond well to things that are sooo dark~ you have to search and search(bit of issue with parlour-tricks & "dark""art")...But not in this case, at all...You used the extreme shadow to HIGHLIGHT the metaphor at work in this piece...& I appreciate that very much...Not only is it a successful work, it also surprises and challenges my own aesthetic...& I reeeeeeeeeeaaaalllllllllllllllly LOVE that
Thank you. I feel so priveleged to watch you..
