Description
Through doors of lost expectations, behind locks of hidden emotions,You see your life in the most darkness way.
You reach for something different, you reach for something else.
If only you could open the doors of the past.
If so, then you wouldn't feel in the darkness at all.
You wouldn't feel lonely, you would feel nothing but joy.
So start from scratch and hope for the best and maybe one day you won't be a shadow of the past.
---------------------------------------
חיים ללא עתיד, חיים ללא עבר, אתה מושיט את ידך אל יום המחר.
ללא תקווה וללא אמונה, רק עם כאב וקשיחות של הלב.
הכל יכול היה להשתנות, אילו רק ידעת לחיות.
לפתוח את ליבך ולהראות לכולם את מי שאתה.
להעריך רגעים, לאהוב אנשים, לשמור לצידך את כל היקרים.
כי בסוף החיים, כשתזדקק לאותם היקרים, הם לא יהיו איתך כי נעלת אותם מבפנים
-----------------------------------
Yum Kippur is near.
In Yum Kippur the jewish people don't eat or drink for 24 hours.
We don't use electricity or things that ease on our life.
We pray and pray and hope for forgiveness.
Forgiveness from our self.
Forgiveness from the people we hurt during the last year, And above all, we ask god to forgive us.
During this time we also make a self examination.
Some of us lock their self behind hidden emotions, behind feelings.
Maybe it's time to open up,
To reveal something pure and simple.
To let those we love come closer and to cherish them for eternity.
To show happiness and joy.
To help our self and others and to smile from time to time......
I know it will open the dark doors and I know it will help us during this life and beyond.
Hope you like it.
Yours,
N.D

But that's just my opinion

great idea.
so-so realization. i don't like the shadow in the upper part. i think the perspective should/could be more accented.
due the greatness of the idea i think you should re-think about the whole setting and then re-shoot the whole idea.

hey dear,
I appreciate your thoughts and words.
about the scene I tried to make dark atmosphere which for my opinion suppurt the Idea and the words.
about the perspective maybe you right, but I'll need to try it again to see it
Thank you for being honest and true

okay.. you've got a good point for that shadow... but then i don't like the color. there's no need for color with this kinda photo. b&w would be better choice.
don't forget this is only IMO.

NadavDov In reply to demony [2005-10-08 12:42:42 +0000 UTC]
I tried it in b/w but the thing is that I think it's lose the general atmosphere of inner lock, of something scary, combined with something frightining and dark within ourselves.
something like a twilight zone and we all can be there if we won't open ourself.
for me, the colour suppurt it
the b/w for my opinion is more anemic and lose details and effect.
and it's ok.
I like it a lot when you say what's on your mind.
after all, we're here to learn and to share thoughts from one another.
I'm just happy I found a friend like this here...you
I hope you think the same

you can lose the anemic look with different lighting. if you have any mobile light source. and i hope you do.
play.

You have a poet's soul, my friend... and I love your honest and realistic approach to Yom Kippur. It's refreshing to see
