I've just found a link to this from one of my own photographs... -- and yet, somehow, it seems, I didn't leave a comment at the time.... This is one of your -- if not the -- best SPs; and moves me every time I see it.... Wonderful....

Hmmm, I agree with AL, very powerful. I have no idea why but as soon as I saw the thumbnail it brought to mind the film Truly, Madly, Deeply. Whether you remind me of the character or whether it was just the sense of feeling that I got, I don't know. The image made my stomach churn in a pained way, as if there is a real sadness here. Wonderful sp. Voted

Not pretty but very powerful. A great capture of human expression, state of mind and mood. Well done, Ray. And take care.
