sympa cette photo, j'aime beaucoup l'ambiance

La lumière est bien maitrisée. Bonne journée.
JP

Quelle lumière et quelle atmosphère. Des noirs profonds des blancs pas cramés c'est assez virtuose au service d'une belle idée. La lumière ou le banc nous avons tous le choix.

wow great mood indeed! the flare shining in adds a plus to this image!

What an amazing shot!!!!

You have a delicate and magical effect of light here.
It looks to be from another world !!!

Great shot …I like ... composition and these black and white tones
It's so... romantic

Mythology or Harry Potter? best...jerry

Very good photo, a splendid use of lights here, and not eay. The scene creates a mysterious atmosphere very well processed in b/w.

Great shot, beautiful scene and excellent mood in this image! Great work!

Atmosphere,Atmosphere.......Face to Face between Angel and Demon...

Great B&W!!! I love the atmosphere and the light is simply amazing.

Exquisite! I love the mood and the low key lighting.

Hum! Excellent! Great shot! Beautiful scene, love the mysterious atmosphere! Bravo!

Oh ! I was talking with Aurore about flares, telling her I don't really like them except when they "mean" something, and, geez, here it's the perfect illustration for me of gorgeous it can be ! Like a whole new planet emerging at his side, love the "powder" of this light and how it bumps into the bench to illuminate it. Totally dreamy photo, love your tale (again), Sharon - and thanks for sharing such clever quotes too*

wow, what a fantastic scene

This is a terrific image, very original too. I can't help thinking about the film ''Taken'' :-0

Between shades et lights this man seemed to hesitate... Good atmosphere!

So you have yourself the ending of a movie here... now you need to find the rest of the story!
Great shot, really magical mood.

Super picture.. amazing!

A very nice atmosphere in B&W... Friend or enemy ?

Oh such superb light, I love that glow and the way it's picked out the leaves. The whole atmosphere is fantastic, bravo, 5*

He looks like beeing hypnotized ! Incredible fanatstic mood here today Sharon !

Guauuuu! Bravo!!!!!!
Left the darknesses, with that light that trims the silhouette and illuminates the way. Very good

Warm greetings

Well matched quote and picture

dreamful scenery and a very good play with light and shadow!

Flare is noise ? or noids... I'm going to get the noids...

This is a great one Sharon! The light, the mood, details... Great atmosphere. Congrats!

no! don't go into the dark! :) i like the the gradation from light to dark in this scene you captured.. excellent shot! :)

Love it love it love it !! Three times and it's not enough believe me, i love this dreamy atmosphere and that strong light on the left like a new horizon, but only if the guy is ready to look at it and... let love rule (hey Lenny, kiss to you !) For the moment, he's just facing the forest of his inner questions. Love your title too, and your quote of course, this shot makes my rainy day suddenly sunny and light because it is so luminous in all the senses that exists. Thanks a lot Sharon.

Super mood captured here Sharon! Almost dreamlike....and hence the perfect title... Well done! ;-)

Scène intrigante.
Bonne journée,
jj@+

Very cool shot! The flare makes for a lot of mystery and drama!

Such characterization. Really admirable.

I feel creepy. like sometime is going to happen. I love it!

What can I say Sharon... mystery, drama, emotion... all in a single photo! Absolutely amazing work!!!

Marvelous image. Fabulous Rumi quote. He is exactly right.

Super amazing as always.

"He hears the ticking of the clocks / And walks along with a parrot that talks / Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailers all come in / Maybe she'll pick him out again, how long must he wait / Once more for a simple twist of fate" (Bob Dylan)
Sharon, what a great composition. If you could only see my tears of joy looking at such a beauty. Brilliant storytelling, masterly framed & I'm running out of words. You made my day. Thanks for that! All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

I LOOOOOVE this one. I'm sure he is really looking for me in those woods! Rumi is a favorite of mine.

I hope life is treating you great. I know we've both been on the run with very little time to cross paths. I hope you are feeling much better now. I know when I get sick, it sets me back for weeks. :)

Perfect, moodly and mystic at the same time.

spooky... the first time i ever really wondered about chimeras was upon hearing a Happy Potter novel read aloud. i could tell it was something scary :) i went to the dictionary upon seeing this post and now i am better educated :) i love, love the photograph! what perfect flare! the quote...ahhh another for my files. you have so many that speak to me.

Wow great light and mood

Beautiful play with light... a strange atmosphere here...

ah, i missed these kinda photos of yours :) gloomy emo people/murderer in the park.
your usual boy in a hoodie (well, from my impression there were many boys in hoodies in your photos, or that one photo stuck) has grown up and progessed to suits it seems

This must be from another world. A fantastic vision so beautifully envisioned and captured.

A stunning image-quotation combination where each aspect feeds off the other.

Fantastic poetic atmosphere ! I love your processing

great mood with special beautiful light !

like a scene from a scary movie - very nice work

Nice and mystious shot!

blue, day after day you have a winner! I bow down to you and hope my images are even half as moody and emotional as yours!

Interesting elements well positioned. The mood is mysterious and threatening.

Good ambiance. Very much your style.

Amazing image Sharon ...... Has me thinking of Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind for some reason

Love the circling rays of light and how they fall upon the sofa! Excellent.

A great "polar" (detective novel) atmosphere. Perfect for a book cover.... :-)

i like the lens flare here.

très belle atmosphère.

it's so chilling! a very appropriate title, too . . . .

Very nice! Love the flare in this, exposure was spot-on too.

One of your most "dramatic" shots, indeed.

terrific atmosphere in this. really nice!

A very fine image.

Love the words, they go perfectly with the picture. Great.

Love this - so mystical and moody. Well done!!

Perfect atmosphere. Great title.

Wow, this is perfect! Love the lighting and details.

outstanding effect, love the outline of the man and glow on the bench.

Lovely lovely lovely shot! AMAZING! Perfect. I really love it.

What an amazing shot. I love the atmosphere! Well done.

Très belle lumière super composition, le choix du n&b est bien vu ;)

Bon mercredi.

beautiful image in quiet mood.

The light gives this a nice bit of mystery.

A very effective image with its dramatic lighting and special effects. Well done.

You have created a fascinating, mystic mood here. Simply astonishing!

wow -- a cinematic, UNFORGETTABLE moment that could have come from such legendary movies as: 'close encounters of the third kind'...!!! (or anything from david lynch for that matter!) FAAABULOUS -- 5 stars!!! bravo BC!

Une superbe ambiance nocturne d'automne!!
On entend crisser les feuilles...Suspense!

Superb! The dreamlike and dream sensations have been felt and recorded. The quote fits your vision really well. i don't see a path beyond wherehe's heading but the best is that i don't see him stop either for that matter. That's the feel I like about that wonderful vision. The flares are bliss.
Bravo!

Good Day to You Sharon.

Mystic scenery. Nice play with the light

Absolutely fantastic image! Very mystery...

. .perfect titling .. chimera, indeed.. this image has a cinematic effect that is very appealing.

feeling alone and fear.......

Great B&W, the light is good and the highlight on the bench is superb.

Ahhh, the quote is beautiful, so powerful.

The light coming from the left, the human figure near the center convey to me a sense of mystery and suspense. Almost like some alien encounter...I guess I've watched to many SciFi flicks.

I hope you are feeling better, Sharon.

you really did a miracle with this common thing! very great, blue...!

What a brilliant mood this superb composition holds....I love the flare and the rim-light on the figure...mysterious, romantic, loaded with intrigue...that empty bench waits for someone....awesome!!

just WOW
what a great bw and spooky shot,what a lighting and what a story
i really love this shot,its amazing and mystic
bravo dear Sharon

Sharon, where on earth do you get these lonely figures in lonely places, and why are they always dressed in black? lolol i'm beginning to wonder about you, how you take soooooooo many GORGEOUS shots

Une belle atmosphère, une composition superbe en noir et blanc

Une fantastique mise en scène qui renvoit une image de solitude intense ! J'aime cette lumière qui surgit comme pour montrer un chemin ! Fantastique !

Do you use the expression "between dog and wolf"? great shot.

Just one word comes to me - lovely! :)

very good work and quite unexpected comment

I really like the atmosphere and the particles in the atmosphere. I like that big halo above the person's head, as if the person is saying something but no word comes out. The shadowy figure is both eerie and mysterious- friend or foe... Nice shot.

David Vincent, superbe, j adore l ambiance de celle si ^^

Bonsoir,
Un traitement réussi qui renforce l'énigme..Bravo!

Congratulations

This is a masterpiece. Congrats!

Great shot perfect for the Halloween season

you make magic photos like nobody else - no feeling of trickery, real magic.

Very strong expressive image.

Great moody one. Nice balance of highlights with the lens flare and bench.

An x-files mood in this one.

Hi Sharon,
Your pics amaze me day after day. Five stars ;o)
Love the diagonal compo, from up left corner (light) to down right corner (bench).
The partial illumination of the leaves creates a scene full of mystery and tension. Excellent sensitivity to compose the atmosphere.
Just brilliant.

This...is amazing. Just amazing. Great composition, great light, great subject. Fantastic!

I love the mood here.

wow! not gonna catch me walking around there!

Excellent serie, Sharon, I like the human presence here, with a night effect.
