Oh that Edgar Allan Poe...he sums it up doesn't he.
This image is dramatic. I am drawn to the haze at a distance and the handrail on the right. The man seems to have a purpose in his walk. He knows where he is going.

Such mood in this fine image. I know he doesn't look afraid but, this guy is happy to me moving beyond this stretch of street.

A fine crisp image with a really nice composition

Superb light and structure Sharon. Something is approaching. I feel this here
27 Feb 2009 7:59am
Really a beautiful b&w picture, great tonal range and rich blacks!

The series that you are showing to us is fabulous. These shady, misty streets, with paseantes solitaires. Everything seems left a “police black series”.
Good photography, of course.
Greetings

Grahame from NZ will enjoy the quote for sure ! So do I, with this path & pace of yours, dark life and yet, the light, a true one, is at the end and that's such a relief we understand he can walk that slowly in its direction... Love your vivid screenwriting*

again very nice mood picture.....i like bw darkness......
i am just interesting, did you try it without that right part to have street framed by dark only from right ?
27 Feb 2009 9:07am
a world that belongs to you, Bluechameleon. Pictures that we recognize among a thousand. You are the lover of shadow and light, long and prospects of the movement of people .. Your world is made of this passage of time which emerges from your photos. J'adore.
27 Feb 2009 9:33am
how do you take such good photos at night? this is great Sharon, as usual
27 Feb 2009 10:09am
Superb in every aspect. Love the choice of focus, the light and the mood... beautiful :)
27 Feb 2009 11:25am

27 Feb 2009 11:45am
Terrefic light! am sure it will happen something terrible to that man.
Excellent frame.
27 Feb 2009 1:10pm
great feeling of solitude in this shot ! love the light and the perspective !
27 Feb 2009 1:31pm
Oooh. What a dark, brooding moment out on the streets.
27 Feb 2009 1:31pm
"a dream within a dream" - absolutely! Perfect composition and tonalities. You take us deep within that dream.
27 Feb 2009 1:39pm
That is really the most incredible lighting, full of drama and storytelling, good work.
27 Feb 2009 2:57pm
excellent! it makes me feel like I'M the stalker hiding in the shadows! I love the railing at the right side (that's where I'm hiding)!!
27 Feb 2009 4:28pm
wow, did you capture this incredibly well. This is excellent work
27 Feb 2009 5:13pm
It is all in the citation of Edgar Allan Poe.
27 Feb 2009 6:01pm
Really nice! I like the hazyness/blurrieness of the shot and how the sharpness in the corner places you in the shot as the viewer.
27 Feb 2009 6:56pm
Yes, very well done ambiance shot as usual. I like the perspective in the one, and the desolation
27 Feb 2009 7:46pm
Where is he going, home, office... nowhere... is it early morning, late at night ? I'm lost in space and time but this is the reason why I like your work so much Sharon... I loose every kind of scale here... I escape from everything surrounding me....
27 Feb 2009 8:57pm
Lovely moody. That doesn't sound right I know, but you get the idea.
27 Feb 2009 9:18pm
I like the composition with the man placed to the left.
27 Feb 2009 10:21pm
Reminded of the Dylan song, any day now I shall be free.
28 Feb 2009 12:15am
Another great night/fog shot, the light frames the picture in nicely giving it atmosphere
28 Feb 2009 2:50am
Agree...this is beautiful. Shadows give way to light.

Like a scene from a film. Perhaps we are stalking him, or merely the camera observing as he walks into the eiry mist. Maybe he'll get lucky, maybe he'll get rolled. An undercover cop, a drug deal waiting to happen? Full of atmospheric tension, susepence and intrigue.
Superbly observed, Sharon, a jewel of a photograph in my opinion. First class
28 Feb 2009 4:58am
Excellent capture...love the perspective and the light and shadows. Has a distinct "noir-ish" fell to it.
28 Feb 2009 8:22pm
A perfect title for a very evocative and atmospheric shot. Love the b&w and lighting.
3 Mar 2009 7:01am
Wow, you know how to play with light.. What a moody picture
