Smile, without a reason why. Love, as if you were a child, Smile, no matter what they tell you Don't listen to a word they say Cause life is beautiful that way. (From the film "Life Is Beautiful")
I love this it makes you feel you are flying over the top and the long shadow gives it a feeling that the character is real and love the light effect too.great looking piece of art of a girl in a cold place walking through the Milky Way .Looking longer I get the feeling it is in a white desert she walks .
You've made me almost speechless Rob. To me this is a great composition. Art work in 'optima forma'. S+F instantly of course. Thanks for sharing this splendid one mate!

This is terrific Rob - such a great feeling of being alone with only your thoughts and footsteps. Having taken 3 or 4 Film Noir classes I think Tick's comment is very astute.
Superb manip Rob - this image would make an excellent advert for an Alfred Hitchcock classic black and white movie!!!! Excellent and top notch work as always!!!!
I hope you will enter this excellent image in to the B&W challenge, it would be perfect for the challenge. Just let Lyneve know you want to enter it. tigs=^..^=
Late afternoon and she is walking along a deserted beach alone with her thoughts. A deceptively simple image which evokes a lot of emotion. A splendid work Rob and thank you for submitting it to the BWC
My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Love the textural shadows and light, love the simplicity. Maybe there is a composition that would suggest/imply more relationship between her shadow and the shadows on the right? I know it is a manipulation but the obvious "problem" is that those strong light sources to the right "would" throw her shadow away to the left and that would definitely add narrative, well, one particular narrative. Perhaps you are complete master of everything I see here and the narrative of mismatch/dislocation is precisely the one you were after, in which case, ignore me completely. :)
