There are moments when you find yourself in a place…in time…waiting…and you think to yourself…how did I get here?
He sat
Waiting for the right thing to say
At the right moment
The right way
His nerves niggled
Silently poised

There is so much going on in this shot Robert, I love it, superbly exectuted………………………………….is that Indiana Jones?
Thanks Sylvia. It was another spontaneous situation on my recent road trip across 3 states. Yep so good to get out of the city. Damn…it DOES look like him too (lol). Cheers .)
This is just killer funny!!!! Awesome job of finding the completely absurd in the totally mundane!
Cheers Lenny. Now back home after the road trip I’ve been imagining all sorts of similar scenarios and have been scoping for locations. Fun fun fun ;)

Yes, like it very much Robert. So much more value and life coming out to the viewer than any carefully contrived shot.
Yep Victor, when it happens naturally but one can simultaneously ‘see’ the scene with a little tweaking…that’s a great moment. Thanks.

LOVE THE TONE and COMPOSITION !
My goodness, what an amazing image! Love the flowers on the quilt, and the beautiful tattoos…..his eyes are hypnotic….but most of all the shadows are just fabulous!!
Thanks Mel. Yes I love the shadows too. They seem to be coming from all sorts of angles, adding to the image’s mystery I think ;)
