waking mind

This shots got a lot of different meanings for me. I see it as waking from yourself, as if lifting from your body-escaping.And also this spirit that can never lie to rest. hope you like this shot, took me ages to wait till the light outside was right :-)

waking mind belongs to the following groups:

    i prefer photography that explains a behind story and you have sure achieved that.
    i like the way you explain the photograph it gave the piece many meanings and view, amazing capture and the angles shadows just superb.
    when i first look at this piece i was confused because it looked like a reflecting face then i look at your concept and it made a lot of sense beautiful job.
