Description This photo is from autumn 2006. I was playing with shadows and contrast. I like the expression and how the light falls in this one. It's also a little different from my usual self portraits.

The title has a special meaning. Around the time I took the photo I was listening a lot to Darker by Diary of Dreams. The song reminds me of that time of my life and when I look at this photo and other photos from the same day it's the first thing that comes to mind. It's weird how a song can affect you. In a way it also symbolises how I feel my life, my drawings and me as a person went that year - Darker.

It's taken with my digital Olympus D-580 camera. Afterwards my friend Brian has been playing with it in Photoshop.

Absolutely beautiful photo! Yea, it is crazy how some songs just affect you like no others. Seems they were written just for you.

Wow. What a piercing stare... I like it! Music has some effect on me too. But sometimes I represent my feelings with music of my own. I like making stuff to listen to as I wait for the bus, go on trips, and fall asleep to. It is like using sound as a canvas. Music is a strange thing; using harmonies and tone to convey feelings and thoughts to others. So wonderous.

What is your favorite style? Mine is Techno Dance, New Age, and remixes.

That's a wonderful way to put it.. I can only agree, music is very powerful and a great inspiration and it has a way of bringing out certain emotions.
