that is an extremely melancholy shot.
i've been away from dA for a while.. or not as involved as i would like to be.. but your work is always something to look forward to coming back to.. and this is no exception..

Love the mood here, takes away from the sunny-lovey image of Paris. Would not expect less. I like the composition.

beautiful capture, something very powerful in this, sadness, sitting alone against such an idilic romantic city...
I go to paris for the first time in 6 days i cannot wait

Hi Kev.... I'm going to go a bit hard on this one, because I had a feeling it could be more than what it is in the thumb...
The composition could be more powerful if the seated person occupied a larger portion of the frame; also the sky is lacking.


I know this isn't exactly a prepared photograph; but I feel like it could be more.
(I believe one tends to over-nitpick when an artist goes work like you do on a regular basis!!)

Fair enough....thank you

I tend to agree with you....I did a cropped version and it felt sort of...cropped. Pehaps not.
I'm going to be making an actual print of it shortly which will change things a bit.... and I will have all of that in mind...

Thanks for all of that.... it's much appreciated.

Thank you.....
and I love the fact you said 'angel' instead of 'angle'

Sometimes you just don't know.....we entertain them unawares I hear....

I like it. It's not a nice sense of either loneliness or of waiting...and maybe a little bit of both.

Well October 20th is the worst day of my life...
so this photo really captures a lot of that melancholy feeling of the day for me.
Great textures in this. It says a lot.

Thank you......He just sort of appeared when I got on the bridge and it began to rain. I walked to the other end, turned around and he was gone.... Then the rain really hit and that's when I shot the other photo....

Always good hearing from you....
