The Glory

brilliant

Nice moody shot Mel! I immediatley thought of the series of books by Diana Gabaldon “outlander”. This would make a great book cover!

Really nice shot!

fantastic work, Mel :)))

Great title for this image. At first glance I see a gladiator-but on closer inspection I see he’s a Scotsman in a kilt. Love that light at the end of the tunnel framing the resting figure.

Brilliant work Mel !

Love the concept Mel, the flooding light is perfect for the storyline, and I love your textures;)

outstanding, poignant imagery…..WOW

Excellent work Mel!

Well done! the lighting produces a perfect contrast!

This is fabulous Mel, it really does elicit an emotional response and an immediate feeling of a “story” behind the image…

BRILLIANT!!!! Love the treatment!

Top notch image, Mel. Title – Comment is so true, and you portray that with superb skill. The softness of the Composer reveals more than it conceals. The spirits of the forgotten within those walls…

Hi Mel, how you doing, what you have achieved here is a still from a part of life that is very frightening this solder seams to be resting from a stint in the front line, it could be Afghanistan or any part of the world were there is conflict and you have portrayed this so well.
great work could this be the start of a new set of work?

A current issue, very interesting image, tells a whole story, well done.

Love this image, it makes me feel I am looking backwards through a window of time to the past. I love your composition on this, the soldier’s pose and the treatment which I think definitely enhances the mood!

Oh! this is awesome Mel

Just love browsing your art Mel. This is remarkable.

Brilliant shot, texture and defocus works so well, love both in this series.

Wonderful shot. It could be an image from anytime over the last four or five centuries

Remarkable, intriguing image. Marvelous work. I like what Mark said: it could have been taken just about anytime, and that gives it even more depth.
