The Animal in me part III...
From a series where I work to express the deepest emotions, both positive and “negative”. Armed with my Nikon D300 and a flashlight. I try to keep the Photoshop-work to a minimum to not loose the ethereal energy the method some times captures.
D300 with Nikon 18-200 mm 70mm f:14 s=30” tripod
As is shot
Inspired by Thomas Dybdahls song Solitude. A Norwegian singer/songwriter. He is just wonderful. Both songs and lyrics. Please take 5 min and enjoy !!! :)—-—-—--

Lyrics
_so much for solitude and spills from the mind
romantisized as always
i cannot afford not to invest in myself
but i won’t let the world get you down
i won’t leave your side
i won’t leave your side
same old, same old
this is the way the story goes
when i need me most you need me more
the truth of it all is all around me i know
but it wasn’t like this before
still, i won’t let you down
no i won’t leave your side
i won’t let you down this time_
