You did so well with this shot - keeping things a little unclear, which left so much to our minds to fill in. How you got everything right like this and then also were the subject is amazing.

I see a ray of light from upper right corner, but you just couldn't bring yourself to see it. It maybe the hope for life, but you decide to hide. Do you not realize it at all or you just can't bear to be disappointed one more time?

My favorite timespace of the day.I can wash away my imagined sins,let the pound of water on my neck massage away my tensions,and sometimes indulge my thoughts in a tropical waterfall.It is a moment of release and renewal as I feel from your image.

I can see your abstractions continue to stimulate Kal's imagination, Ana, as well as the rest of us. You use four layers of abstraction here -- a dark periphery to give make it seem as if we can see you, but you can't see us. A layer of water, adding context and texture. The glass is frosted, which highlights the water and obscures your figure. And finally your body language -- your hands make you faceless and your arms cover the upper body. The harder you make the viewer look, the harder their imaginations will work.

Another visual treat, that fits in perfectly with the two preceding images.

See, I told you I would be back for a peek! This is a very original gallery Ana.
Ana Carloto O'Shea10-Aug-2005 15:00
Well Kal, that was part of the idea behind the photo, that people felt like they were peeking through the keyhole, that's why there's darkness around the edges of the photo. The rest of the story, is my life actually ;-)
Kal Khogali10-Aug-2005 14:02
Hmmm, now I am looking through the keyhole or something. I kind of feel that this is getting a littel bit risky. If I get caught I might get in to trouble, but I want to keep coming back and having a peek, but then someone places their hand on my shoulder and says "come along now, we won't have any of the peeping Tom stuff around here". And so...I have to leave, but I will be back for a peek later ;-)
