Tribute to the great genius himself. Captured this while Paul was contemplating his next frame.

    This is fantastic Alf .. it really makes you create a story in your head – my story is that there is a certain distance between them .. there feels a tension between them but a certain intimacy that isn’t good for either of them – sorry I get carried away sometimes :)

    Fantastic. Superbly emotive – I don’t know whether I am contemplative like the photographer or voyeuristically entranced in the model. POV, Composition. Love it

    Alf, I am so loving this…. from the square framing to your perfect eye to harness, see and capture the image. Yes, the depth between the two characters is so wonderful as it both generates the voyeur and the participant and the title just conjures up a many scenarios – are they taking a break from the wake… and yes, how stunning is Danielle!

    Incredible mood created here Alf! The expressions of both Danielle and Paul really make this an exceptional evocative work of art. The intensity is gripping and the post processing treatment just further enhances the emotion of the piece. Bravo to Danielle and Paul and of course to you, perfect timing! (oh and isn’t it wonderful to see Paul with his clothes on! lol)
