wow…looks like a real painting…and you know what i am highly inspired with this moment so may you see my next painting reflecting your perfect shot…..i hope u dont mind…
As with the pic of ‘Pioneer Days’, this has the essence of bygone days. As much as I like this pic, I would have concentrated on the woman’s face and hands.

another one…..i admire laurel…i used to live in australian outback with lantern just like that…it was carosene lamp and this light here brings memories to me…LOVE IT and my fav
The light and luminance in this just amazes me. I had to peer closely to see if this was not, indeed, a painting. And a as a photography, you’ve captured textures and a rhythm, so that my eye wants to continue moving on the lighter objects. Beautiful work.

beautiful – light like in an old painting
