Quiet Harmony

Uploaded: February 21, 2007

Description

Aperture F3.1, shutter 1.62 sec, Nikkor 7.1 to 21.4 mm lens, no flash. These are things I love: "dark" pictures, deep rich red/browns, sunlight and shadows, angles and lines. Taken early in the morning in my "dungeon" basement office as the first sun came in through a basement window, playing with shadows on my printer. There's just something about this photo that makes me quietly smile.

Thank you Ray and Ronald for your words of encouragement! I'm amazed at just how motivating a comment from someone else can be, and I appreciate it. #8086240

This is probably one of the best works I have seen ever. I love the simplicity and melancholic mood. #8175749
