Like the feel of this image. Forlorn, maybe, but certainly beautiful (and cold). #1243056Mick Burkey February 26, 2010
Very nice, Lonnie! I love the soft look and overall feel of this. Great B&W conversion! #8418736Chris N. Sweet February 26, 2010
Superb Lonnie, I love this, I like your chosen aperture/DOF, gives real emphasise on the posts. Great work. #8418804Lonnie M. Scott February 26, 2010
Hi Marisol, Mick and Chris.....It was about -20c that day. The shot was taken with a medium format film camera thus the B&W. I,m getting some very good shots here in Norway. #8418915Dennis Gay March 22, 2010
G'day LONNIE!I can see why this made EP status.
On first viewing grabbed my attention with its wonderful contrast and tones and the feeling of solitude it gave me.
For me this imagery is a metaphor for the homecoming of wanderer who has emerged from the forest behind him and stands alone on the edge of the ice looking toward the warmth of home.
Lovely work man.
