Mais comment as-tu fait pour obtenir un tel contraste ?
C'est vrai qu'on dirait le résultat d'une dispute...
24 Aug 2009 5:35am
@Ben: ...thank you Ben. I adjusted the contrast here to bring the darkness out.
WOW now that is incredible!!! I adore it!!
24 Aug 2009 5:54am
the reflections are extraordinary as well as the composition, a very great picture
24 Aug 2009 5:56am
Beautiful stunning image with the light figures reflected. And a good quote!

A brilliant composition, Sharon! Two sometimes look like four but in the end we mostly walk alone. At least it seems. Sentimental, straight to the heart & great. Really love this one. Thanks for this beauty. All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

Very good!, fantastic composition and a great treatment of the light and b/w. The photo gives a special sense to the words :)
24 Aug 2009 6:47am
Lovely lighting, reflections and composition.
24 Aug 2009 7:28am
WOW!!! What a great shot!
I love everything about it
Great shadows and composition
24 Aug 2009 7:30am
Love their pace, their head bent, the light & reflections and above all those deep blacks of yours, the quote is fantastic (did you wrote that anonymous one ? :)
Love how they walk, 2 or 4 maybe, since we're all so multiple*
24 Aug 2009 7:33am
I admire these compositions that leave the track of a great photography.
Enhorabuena!!!
24 Aug 2009 7:36am
Fantastic job! Composition is perfect. This image tells a story and it's great!
24 Aug 2009 7:44am
Really like those beautiful reflections of each character, and your quotation, so true. A brilliant way to illustrate this idea.
24 Aug 2009 9:49am
oh my, it looks like a breakup to me! I love the reflections here. excellent!!
24 Aug 2009 10:09am
Very nice shot. I like composition, B&W and the reflection on the water. Great picture.
24 Aug 2009 11:06am
The quote is so true. But the photograph is outstanding! 5 stars from me.
24 Aug 2009 11:48am
Some people leave an unforgettable mark on our souls like reflections on the water. The same to some photographs like yours.
24 Aug 2009 11:50am
Really wonderful mood. Love the contrasting dark and light..and the impression this leaves on one's soul.
24 Aug 2009 11:55am
Super capture Sharon! He looks absolutely dejected at the thought of leaving. Or is it a lover's quarrel and each is cooling off??? ;-)
24 Aug 2009 11:56am
I'm not sure exactly why, but this seems very poignant to me. Something about the distance between the couple and their own reflections. Wonderful capture.
24 Aug 2009 12:08pm
Excellent composition!!!! I like B/W and the reflection !!! Bravo!
24 Aug 2009 12:33pm
A strong composition... and beautiful play with the reflections.
24 Aug 2009 12:34pm
A outstanding reflection scene. Wow - this is your flagship (in my eyes). So fine!
24 Aug 2009 12:39pm
it's amazing how you were able to obtain this shot.. really great stuff! :D
24 Aug 2009 1:25pm
Beautiful words and image. The reflections are wonderful.
24 Aug 2009 1:31pm
Beautiful picture. Love the framing and great contrast in BW .
24 Aug 2009 3:21pm
I cant say which is greater...the image or the quote...! But they surely are perfectly matched...! Wonderful!
24 Aug 2009 3:33pm
I like how you darken the water/background, walk on water...gotta watch where you're going, right? Or maybe not... :-)
24 Aug 2009 3:45pm
a dance of solitary confinement -- together, apart, together-apart! each of us one, in total we are many, but all of us alone in our own ways...
this is a simple and yet gorgeous shot BC -- poetic, philosophic, beautfiul and heart renderingly true!! i love it!!! 5 stars from me!!
24 Aug 2009 4:30pm
Great picture.. So nicely composed and amazing...
24 Aug 2009 4:34pm
5 stars for this composition. Well done
24 Aug 2009 4:39pm
I like the reflections and the dark background
24 Aug 2009 4:49pm
Fantastic shot Sharon.... love the processing .... the reflections are great
24 Aug 2009 5:34pm
Great exposure!!!! In a way, they're never lonely, there is always an extra person traveling with you. Niiiice shot!
24 Aug 2009 6:03pm
Terrific. The strong contrast is just right. The reflections are wonderful. And I love the quote.
24 Aug 2009 7:33pm

24 Aug 2009 7:39pm

Fantastic shot...love the reflections and contrast!
24 Aug 2009 9:08pm
Shadows and reflection together - winning combination!
Love it!
24 Aug 2009 9:24pm
A nice frame with sparkling contrast! No time for romance...
25 Aug 2009 1:49am
Exceptionally done, Sharon. I like the depth of blackness and what a great reflection they made with their white clothes.
25 Aug 2009 3:13am
very graphic!! they both look so alone tho they may be together, lonely walks, love the ripples of the water too, makes for great negative space! i love it!!
25 Aug 2009 8:20am
Looks like we've both been to the beach, great composition, making up or breaking up? We'll never know!
25 Aug 2009 8:30am
Oh, I think she just left him..
I love the use of space! :)
25 Aug 2009 9:21am
Sublime one!!!! perfect composition, story and frame. 5 statrs my friend!!!
25 Aug 2009 10:28am
For Shore !!
Love the processing !!
Love love!! :)
25 Aug 2009 2:19pm
Splendid scene, I love the contrast between the sand (is it some sand?) and the white characters...
25 Aug 2009 5:27pm
What a lovely story-telling image this makes . . very strong in its symbolic way.
25 Aug 2009 6:20pm
I really love it! Separation and sadness before lonelyness... but as we say in France : "Une de perdue, dix de retrouvées" ;)
25 Aug 2009 7:22pm
I like the distance between them, looks like distant lovers lol =]
25 Aug 2009 7:47pm
my father recently died and in looking at the image i see how it is i feel...as if i were wandering after him but not quite able to catch up... i love this quote. it is a comfort and the truth.
25 Aug 2009 7:53pm
Amazing composition, I like the atmoshpere and the subject.
26 Aug 2009 8:51am
Excellent, and so true words. Very nice compo and processing.
26 Aug 2009 11:29am
Truer words were never spoken, BC. My ex-husband years ago said that divorce is like trying to tear apart two pieces of paper that have been glued together. You get bits-n-pieces of each other in the tearing apart. This image is very thought-provoking, especially with the reflections.
26 Aug 2009 2:45pm
Simply amazing. So simple composition, but so strong!
A man and a women, apart, but linked together by the light.
26 Aug 2009 3:03pm
Beautiful shot, Sharon! Love the composition. It is very graphic, but unlike most of the graphic shots it is very emotional. This is very "Sharon" image.
26 Aug 2009 3:31pm
How beautifully perfect. What a glorious glow to top it off.
26 Aug 2009 5:24pm
Fantastic composition!! Love the reflection and the b&w processing! Sublime!
26 Aug 2009 7:51pm
Thank´s for the " amazing" but i´m just a beginner ,triyng to get frendly with photoshop ahahahahah !! I realy love your images.. maybe one day i´ll get there!! :)
26 Aug 2009 8:46pm
Se séparer un peu pour mieux se retrouver après... cela est parfois nécessaire !
Jolie composition
26 Aug 2009 9:15pm
Ahh sorry I haven't been around your website in a little while, I've been so busy!!! I enjoy all of your comments so much! This photo is striking, first because of the perspective, very awesome. 2, the isolation of the subjects couldn't be anymore contrasting and 3, the reflections are awesome.
26 Aug 2009 10:41pm
oh wow..amazing shot! the clarity and the framing...superb!! :))
27 Aug 2009 1:22am
very nice with the reflections! One of my favourites of your work!
27 Aug 2009 12:37pm
Wow love this shot. They seem to be heading in the same direction but are not aware of eachother. Great reflections!
28 Aug 2009 10:08pm
I love this! The scene, the tone and the reflections are wonderful.
29 Aug 2009 11:01am
this is really beautiful. the spacing between the two figures is perfect - really does convey that sense of going but staying.
29 Aug 2009 2:36pm
celle si est pour moi un régal, j aime ces compos que tu magnifies si bien, bravo ^^
31 Aug 2009 5:45pm
lovely treatment and light - I like the reflections arising from nothing.
31 Aug 2009 9:41pm
FAbulous shot! Superb composition and post editing!!!
