    Thanks Paul, KC, Paul LV,

    Chris and Kitsmumma, thinking Chronos, maybe Poseidon even.

    Jo, I’ll keep posting if you keep posing. The shoot kicked off a change in the options I’ve got. I’m enjoying them a lot.

    Kitsmumma, Yes Poseidon, I think is best,

    Craig, glad you liked it,

    Chris, I thought you preferred wine.

    Mayuphoto, thanks, I was trying to get the effect and it seemed to work so well.

    The way the shapes, in near silhouette against the sky, complement each other is quite phenomenal. The man (Chris) looks as large as the cliff-face in the distance.

    stunning image, the way the watcher’s form echoes the rock, and the light, where the intricacy of each finger is illuminated.

  • Douzy

    What a great image. It’s harsh and almost brutal in approach. Looks fantastic in Black and White. Congrats :)
