very intimate image ! I love the lines, the play of light and shadow and the mysterious silhouette ! great !
15 Jun 2009 9:11am
You're specialist on this. On Making work my mind through lines and shadows. Wow!
15 Jun 2009 9:23am
Ooooh ! I've no words to tell you how much I feel this photograph ! Silence, then - and total bliss***
15 Jun 2009 10:01am
The complete range of shades of gray is captured beautifully in this image
15 Jun 2009 10:27am
again a great b/w work. Really like the shadow play and strong contrast. There is so much what you could interpret into this picture!
15 Jun 2009 10:38am
This works really well. Love the effect from the vertical drapes (I have a close-up of them that I need to re-shoot, as it isn't quite right for posting yet!).
15 Jun 2009 1:01pm
Amazing shot !!! Love it !!!! Great job !!!!
15 Jun 2009 1:03pm
Beautiful, it looks so abstract, great work with the silhouette
15 Jun 2009 1:14pm
Wow this is great, you should post it on my new feature Abstract Monday.
15 Jun 2009 1:55pm
Just a presence in this unpredictable world ....
Excellent image !
15 Jun 2009 2:36pm
Mysterious setting and silhouette. Fine light and patterns seem to heighten the mystery.
You need to publish a book of your work.

Terrific mood. Very graphic shot. The light is so nice. In my collection VFXY!
15 Jun 2009 3:27pm
Superbe image graphique! Belle atmosphère étrange! Une merveilleuse lumière!
15 Jun 2009 4:07pm
Wonderful abstract. Love the vertical lines of light and texture.
15 Jun 2009 4:24pm
So much tension from such a 'simple' composition. Well done.
15 Jun 2009 4:48pm
amazing B/W shot. nice texture that coming from nice idea. tanx
15 Jun 2009 5:35pm
Excellent! sublime image! j'aime cette géométrie! L'ombre d'un très beau N/B!
15 Jun 2009 5:45pm
High Quality!!! Beaitiful black and white
15 Jun 2009 6:12pm
The less we see, the more we know we are there . . clever stuff. It works !
15 Jun 2009 7:00pm
Terrific. Seeing the person on the left, who occupies such a small part of the image, reminds me of how much people can dominate our photographs. On the Virginia Woolf quote, many of us wish that we could enclose our pasts in the privacy of our hearts.
15 Jun 2009 7:58pm
It makes me giddy! :-P Only kidding, excellent shot.
15 Jun 2009 8:49pm
so STRIKING!!! add this to my simply DYNAMITE favorites of yours!!! HOT! 5 stars!!!
15 Jun 2009 9:25pm
the blinds came out great, wonderful dark and light.
15 Jun 2009 10:01pm
There is more to this image than meets the eye.!
15 Jun 2009 11:19pm
Very nice, and none of them are broken too, which helps to create this striking picture. The blind slats in my office are either out of whack or stuck :(
16 Jun 2009 12:23am
Definitely a fascinating and creative work. Superb display of light and shadows. The silhouette adds a great eerie effect, excellent image!
16 Jun 2009 12:32am
This is the kind of stuff you do best. You make great mysteries. Stories with an imagined plot told in strong tones.
16 Jun 2009 1:10am
This is good... very good! Revealed so little and expressed so much. Great work!
16 Jun 2009 3:43am
wonderful glow in this b&w image of yours.. nice shot! :)
16 Jun 2009 4:08am
The perfect quote to accompany your image. We all have our secrets, known only to ourselves, yes?
16 Jun 2009 4:16am
an excellent source of lighting created here sharon!
16 Jun 2009 5:32am
I like the mysterious mood in this shot. Nicely done!
16 Jun 2009 6:04am
Great moody composition. I like the mysterious atmosphere!
16 Jun 2009 7:46am
Like a kaleidoscope, we show those we encounter a facet of ourselves ...
16 Jun 2009 1:27pm
Love the lines in this! Excellent composition.
16 Jun 2009 1:51pm
Very striking and very creative and very cool. I really really like it!
16 Jun 2009 1:56pm
I love the bars of light and dark....very graphic!
16 Jun 2009 2:38pm
Wonderful. Wanted to add to your already nice commentary. Well deserved!
16 Jun 2009 3:42pm
Wow...this is a very creative image. Leaves a great deal to the imagination.
16 Jun 2009 4:28pm
I like it, nearly an abstract here, cool treatment !
16 Jun 2009 4:45pm
A brilliant illustration to the great quote! In my collection right away:)
16 Jun 2009 5:49pm
Hey! Thanks for visiting my site! Much appreciated! :) I'm impressed with what I see here! That is some amazingly sharp, but still glowing effect you captured here!
16 Jun 2009 9:01pm
You controlled the light with such a great way on this one! I like the mysterious silhouette too!
16 Jun 2009 9:21pm
Like a scene out of a horror movie where the killer is getting ready... very cool
17 Jun 2009 12:42am
Fabulous quote for this image by Virginia!

I forgot to comment on this photo which I discover only.
This abstract image is a part of my photographic preferences.
