There is such a peace and beautiful feeling about this. You ooze romance in some of your images. I love that soft side in you, it projects such emotions with the camera. Beautiful Robert:)

Light and texture is wonderful here Robert. This works so well in B&W. Like the bright light on the empty place – the spirit is still there.
