:iconsenosis:
With a classic black and white to start m"Therapture", has an aged texture that leaves the mind wondering. Personally I enjoy the "time stopped" vibe given off by this photo, but others may see this as a very unnatural effect. As for vision, there is nothing unclear about this photo, in the ways necessary, it is clear and visible.
Your originality is what drew me to this photo in the first place. The thought of the word "Rapture", whether it be the end of days or a feeling of unbelievable ecstasy, it is an enticing thought. When I look at this, I wonder... and that is enough. Make people think, make people wonder, make others inspired. You have done all in my opinion.
My only negative criticism is the technique, I personally would have cared to see more of the subject. But overall, you did a marvelous job!

I really, really like this, and I'm not entirely sure why, haha. I think its the lighting...the colours and the texture too. They make it look like a really old photo (which I LOVE) and a bit like a painting too. It looks a bit...otherworldly to me as well, like a ghost or something. Really nice =D

Hum... what I see is a hanging person with some sort of drape on his/her head...

So, all in all, it's a very pretty photo dear! :heart: The grey and white and the grey-ness is really perfect!
You're a great photographer, friend! :hug:

Cling to me, I'll hold you tight,
Your eyes I can't look away from,
They beg me for something,
I'll help you, I said,
An angel who's been hurt,
Only another angel can heal you. :heart:

A captivating piece. :nod:
From the thumbnail, I thought it was a girl hanging herself. But now I realized it's more like jumping on a bed or a mattress.

I think it's this combination of the first very serious impression and the light touch I saw later - jumping on a bed reminds me of children days... :pat:

I love it! :tighthug:

At first before I saw whom it was from and enlarged it I thought it was a faux-hanging but after seeing it enlarged it reminds me of a picture I've always kept in my head to help me through the worst of times. An image of being powerful enough to float above all the problems and everything else around me. I can't quite explain it as it has always been more of an image to me but this really reminds me of it and seeing that makes me almost teary eyes as the image has always meant a great deal to me. On a side note I'm so happy to see work from you again! :heart:!!!!!
