..."April is the cruellest month,
breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land,
mixing
Memory and desire,
stirring
Dull roots with spring rain"...

Hope April will be sweet (i need it) - can't decide if he's alone of if another shadow (a woman's) is sticking against him... And i like to be able to SEE things in your darkest beautiful blacks**

Wonderful and full of mystery heightened by the suggestion of a secret companion on this nocturnal stroll! Superbly composed and processed!

Going by the bumber of comments on each of your pics, I don't think you need to hear another, but here goes... Awesome shot! Proves once again that it's not the gear but the photographer and his vision that makes for a great picture.

I really enjoyed looking through your shots. You have a well developed style and perspective that puts your own unique stamp to every shot....from still life to landscape to street...that's quite unusual. I look forward to seeing much more of your work.
