Description "I rose to my feet, stared at him for some seconds in utter amazement, and then it appears that I must have fainted for the first and the last time in my life." --Doyle, "The Adventure of the Empty House".

Since Watson was narrating, this scene only exists by implication -- Holmes springing around the desk with his characteristic alacricity to catch his friend as the strain of the last three years finally took its toll.

One of my favourite moments, and such a lovely drawing. Your Holmes looks very like my Holmes, if that makes any sense. The Brett/Hardwicke version of this scene is also rather good; have you seen it?

I like this picture very much, you capture the facial expression and the pose wonderfully. I like the Holmes Watson pair . At the first moment I saw this picture, I want to colour it, and I did. Would you allow me to post it on DA? I will give you credit and post a link back here.

Mm-hmm, I love how the scene is implied. This way, we can each imagine it just how we would like, and we're all right! XD This is very sweet, I intend to full-view and give it a good stare. ^^ Bravo, bravo, I must say--you're great!
