This is wonderful. I totally love the low key lighting. Excellent….Excellent!!!
Scott thank you so much i was worried how this image would be received because of the nature of the subject but i feel so passionately about giving a voice to the little girl that was abused in my family.
You captured the sadness of innocence lost, of the thief that comes to steal, in the middle of the night . . . noted by the fact that she isn’t cuddling her teddy bear. And her eyes are open, serious – not relaxed and sweet. She’s pulled up into a kind of protective position, pulled into herself. This image comes with lots of emotional layers and is open to many interpretations.
I agree Jacqueline, innocence is a precious gift, that once stolen – can never be replaced. This image reached deep into my heart and stirred my inner-child. Your images whisper from the soul.
Jaeda you have understood my message perfectly, you have looked at the title, the image and the contents plus the comment and understood! You felt the picture, experienced it and interpreted it with your soul and now i am happy..someone understood! I love your inner being…strong but so vunerable, hidden and so deep! You and i are whisperers from the soul because we know of no other way to be so i hear yours and you hear mine!

beauutiful photography! all round good.
Thank you coffeetea for taking the time to stop by and leave such a lovely comment!
ur so welcome….it is a challenge to take on such topics…u executed this very well! Bravo!
Thank you again Helene i took them to give my inner child a voice (i was molested) and also for someone in my family who was abused by the same man. It is a subject that many understandably do not want to see or be reminded of but i felt it was a piece of me that needed to be acknowledged! Thank you for your understanding comment!
powerful image! and message! wont go into my thoughts about molesters, very great image, and a wonderful release you have chosen
Thank you again Christopher it is indeed a sad place to be when someone you love so dearly destroys your love and innocence and traumatizes you for years after. No one loves quite like a child it’s so pure and unconditional so i think they feel it even more keenly when it’s betrayed. Thanks again for your lovely comment!
very powerful Jacqueline – excatly as you say it, the unconditional love of a child should always be respected
Thank you Jim i’m glad people like yourself find it a strong enough image to use the word ‘powerful’ i very much appreciate it. You are also right to say children should be respected as i think abusers regard themselves as having the right to take what does not belong to them, our children are loaned to us not owned by us! Thanks so much for your lovely comment!
