"I have dreamed in my life
dreams that have stayed with me ever after
and changed my ideas
they have gone through and through me
like wine through water
and altered the color of my mind"

Is this a reflection? An interesting feel to this...

@Daryl Johnson: Thanks Daryl. No, not a reflection, but a man dressed all in white under the bright sun and a crowd of people behind him. Since the holga does not have any sort of control over exposure, the contrast is crazy :)
I'm puzzeled, too...but you have given this image an unmistakable air of drama and intrigue! Very interesting!

Just love the quote you have posted here, Sharon - and the image fits it so perfectly. Unusual and intriguing photo.

Surprising mood (as usual Sharon anyway !), could have been shot in the 30's for me, during a terrific hot summer... like a lunatic lost in the street...

Wow ! A Henry Miller look but the mood is much crazier for sure, thanks to Holga & Sharon ! :) Impressive !
We're both on lunatics today it seems ;/

Typical Holga - oh this is a awesome mood. This man must be Phantomas, a littler bit older ^^.

Very nice high key. This man is like a ghost in this picture.

I love this image...the over-exposure expresses and illustrates the quote superbly:)

Strange mood, the man seems to be an apparition... a great one.

What strange mood this is conveying... such a strong suspense and mystery! Brilliant use of your Holga!:-)

I do like it in its simplicity he seems confused and it gives a little dramatics to the picture.

The White Spirit among us, and you've revealed his identity at last!
Spirit from outerly world! :-)

Well, my dear, I don`t know how long you`ve lived, but your vision is certainly altered :) You make us see what you see and it is not what we all usually see. You turn and twist the world and give it all the new and different look. Great work on this shot!

looks like a look of concern on his face, something drawn on him that stands out nicely.

I thought he has gone to a better place already... but this is former US Prez. Gerald Ford!! Trippy!

6 Aug 2009 11:10pm
I like this man, Sharon! His face expression... I don't know why... maybe it's me... in conjunction with your title and the E. Bronte legend :)
Makes me dreaming :)
