I and my family are all safe and well Douglas - we are so fortunate compared with many others - visiting BP, viewing members wonderful images certainly helps to take my mind off the aftershocks, will we become used to them ? we have been told tonight it could carry on for at least 2 months. Last night was most unpleasant. Apparently most areas have safe drinking water and electricty now !!! Many thanks Barbara #8888220

Great title for this very moody image, Barbara!! :o) As Ann said, your composition including the huge empty space of grey has only served to emphasise the feeling of isolation here - for the youngster alone with his thoughts...and, of course, his pencil!! ;o) #8894213
