I´ve said it before: You are a genius. Everything here is perfect. The silhouettes, the white jacket, the postures, the textures.
I so need to come to and be tutored by you!

White facing black, solitude facing a group of 4 - but together they could be like 5 fingers friends maybe ? Seems we are under the hat of that white man and so close to his thoughts and desires... Great human eye (as usual at your place !)

hello BC!!! i am back! :) hope everything has been well with you!! can't wait to get caught up on all that i missed!!! an excellent composition here of course -- love the framing and the white smooth appeal of the down jacket!! of course -- we truly are alone, each and every one of us!!! and only in realizing that do we realize we can choose to 'be there' for each other. wonderfully put, and presented!! great to be back -- bravo!!!

@rain girl: Thank you. It's because I feel we are all really alone in this world.
Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
You have certainly captured the feel of the outsider in this fine image.

He looks and only sees shadows, lives outside his life.

A superb image. Shades of ominous menace in the four silhouettes, are they friend or foe.

poignant image - I really how the others are silhouetted and almost alien like - great perspective and composition over the shoulder as well

Amazing images, full possibilities of interpretative. Prefect compo. I love it!

Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States
This is a most compelling image. I could easily see it as a lead-in photo to a piece in 'Psychology Today'. This is a perfect 'stock' image and technically spot-on. I had to go to Napster to look up who brought that title to Top-40 fame. I had completely forgotten the presence of Gilbert O. Sullivan - yet there he was and it was his. There is a metaphor about fame in this I believe. Cheers. Perhaps in this case, 'blue' cheers...

JJ from Jersey City, United States
Another brilliant capture, he sits there alone and one wonders why as the silhouettes of others are there to see

The body language, the light and the distance between the subject and the shadowy background figures makes this an exceptional image. Everything comes together to tell a story.

Seems a simple shot, but something I really like about this one.
