Ooo I love this!! The framing is wonderful! Such a lone figure, I imagine thinking and deciding on the way his life should go!

You are like a spy lurking around. You get some of the most mystical photographs. This is another wonderful image.
10 Mar 2009 5:20am
Absolutely superb composition, just superb! The lone figure is so compelling! That is an exquisite photograph!

Absolutly fabulous. The light play is superb! Great framing.

You're as good in foggy atmospheres as in high contrasted ones and i love this one : sharp & strong !

he is letterally walkin on the edge of the sea, in a great loneliness, a very disturbing photography, because it's full of feelings. You are very talented
10 Mar 2009 7:20am
A moment of solitude well captured and highlighted by the beautiful natural frame
10 Mar 2009 7:28am
Perfectly frames in motion, contrast of snow and silhouette - charming.

The title does honor to him to this photo. Beautiful photography that transmits solitude at the same time as calm. Excellent black and white
Greetings
10 Mar 2009 8:50am
Great composition for a B / W of a great loneliness! Beautiful photography!
10 Mar 2009 8:57am
You seem to manage to find a lot of lonely people but without them the image would not work, nice one
10 Mar 2009 10:37am
Very nice, like the high contrast touch too.
10 Mar 2009 10:47am
A terrific shot, the natural frame creates a feeling of solitude towards the walker, very good work.
10 Mar 2009 11:20am
il marche sur la place, en solitaire, il va au loin ..il ressemble à une ombre marchant vers son destin.. une image d'exception , emplie de sentiments et de mélancolie..
10 Mar 2009 11:38am
Love how you've seen and capture this. A perfect moment.
10 Mar 2009 11:49am
Very nicely done. Great composition, framing and detail.
10 Mar 2009 11:50am
Très beau cadrage! Excellente composition!
10 Mar 2009 11:53am
great composition and framing. I love the strong contrast and the lonely man
10 Mar 2009 12:37pm
Wonderfully solitary
Clicking back I love the hands in 'patience'
10 Mar 2009 12:49pm
Its fascinating how you find drifting figures always in a stage of solitude, caught but not aware you either respect their privacy to a point or are very sneaky (he he.) I do like this for its mix of sea, land, and man.
10 Mar 2009 1:10pm
You did it again: put the passion in the stillness, love how you do this Blue Sharon :)
10 Mar 2009 1:25pm
Great contrast, The tree looking so strong and bold. The water so vast and wide. The person so lonely and small.
10 Mar 2009 1:27pm
Excellent composition. Well done. Again, it evokes a ton of emotion or thought.
10 Mar 2009 1:36pm
I miss your signature fog and blurriness, however, this one is still fabulous with the same emotions coming thru! Bravo Sharon.
10 Mar 2009 2:18pm
This is quite good. Works well in B/W and wonderful placement of the subject.
10 Mar 2009 2:39pm
His posture makes him look weary and perhaps lonely. Nice street shot.
10 Mar 2009 2:54pm
you and your shadowy figures in black trench coats lol it's soooo great!!
10 Mar 2009 3:05pm
Nice framing in this beautiful image. I like the snow, silvery water and dark clothes on the passerby.
10 Mar 2009 3:17pm
A great place to get your thoughts together strolling along the beach. Great framing with the branches!
10 Mar 2009 4:01pm
Winter is a season for solitary walks along the beach.
10 Mar 2009 4:18pm
A strong image that conveys the feeling of loneliness very well. Excellent image.
10 Mar 2009 4:19pm
Talking, walking, alone with one's thoughts. You have captured a feeling, an atmosphere so beautifully with this wondrous image, Sharon.
10 Mar 2009 4:32pm
Good b/w, very contrasted like that works very well the subject of the photo. I like it.
10 Mar 2009 6:36pm
Très belle atmosphère dans cette ballade! J'aime ces contrastes!
Bonne soirée.
10 Mar 2009 7:02pm
A very emotive image. Excellent composition and great shot! 5 stars!
10 Mar 2009 8:13pm
This looks like a man with an awful lot on his mind. Great shot.
10 Mar 2009 8:42pm
Looks like he has the weight of the world on his shoulders. Great candid moment.
10 Mar 2009 8:56pm
Absolutly fabulous.
The light play is superb Sharon...
Well done.

another great atmosphere capture. Beautiful pic and words
10 Mar 2009 9:28pm
Beautiful capture. I really like the blend of the snow in the foreground and the gentleman walking the picture against the water. I guess that is another way of saying nice composition!
10 Mar 2009 11:35pm
I actually think this would have been stronger if you could have moved in front of the tree and its branches. In a sense they help frame the shot, but in my opinion that complicate it. Not to say it's not good or that I don't like it because I do. The rocks, sliver of visible beach, and the endless sea is a great context for this guy who's walking around with his head down.
10 Mar 2009 11:39pm
This such a thought provoking image, slightly mysterious, as if someone is peering from behind the tree.
10 Mar 2009 11:57pm
Still snow on the ground????? It was sunny and in the 70's today. Nice image.
11 Mar 2009 12:30am
Another shot with great atmosphere... the loneliness, isolation. superb, I do agree that the branch is a bit distracting, but nevertheless its a great image
11 Mar 2009 12:36am
Another emotions and imaginations evocative image! Like the drama and the intriguing mood it's conveying...
11 Mar 2009 12:41am
A well considered and moving image. The snow and the long coat just weigh the spirit of this moment.
11 Mar 2009 3:13am
great framing on this really wonderful window on a stranger's day
11 Mar 2009 4:35am
Perfectly framed and I like the clarity. Certainly has a sense of melancholy.
11 Mar 2009 4:43am
The branches of the tree form a triangle that frames him and that triangle form is repeated in the figure. Wonderful composition and wintery mood.
11 Mar 2009 10:28pm
In this landscape close to desolation, this man seems carried the world on these shoulders… With him, all our thoughts are with the reflection and the comprehension of the world. This photograph is a marvellous starting point for the thought and our relative position thank ;)
11 Mar 2009 11:08pm
talk about a lonely image... this is tops.
11 Mar 2009 11:58pm
Your work has the romance and mystique of the era of B/W cinema...Welles, Hitchcock, Renoir...
17 Mar 2009 5:44am
I´m in love with all of your pictures!!
Don´t you ever stop!!
Keep on and on
20 Mar 2009 6:28pm
I like the composition, big tree and stones framing the tiny man alone.
I like your work, because you have a strong signature, made of many different palettes, I understand better your nick name :)
24 Mar 2009 10:02pm
You are one great photographer! All combined with great creativity and humanity. I know I've said many times (I think) but never mind repeat ... You are a role model for me! Your pictures are all an incredible strength. So it is with your words! I ask you not leave us! It is a pleasure and a great incentive to follow the "red. " With all my love and admiration Happy New Year full of love and life! Cheers! A hug, Adela
