Hm... I did have a very different idea for this challenge but when we drove to this place, it was already getting dark and he was so afraid of ghosts :o) So, we decided to make him a ghost.... Am not going to try to guess if people are going to hate it or not - we had fun taking it and making it... (and now he has a picture of him self as a GHOST... uha :o)

pw. From Raw... dodging, cropping and fixing small details...

Oh Ragga, I loved this photo. I looked at it for such a long time during the voting and voted this one really high. I've always loved that effect of the ghost figures and have wanted to try that sometime. You did this SO WELL! I think this photo is incredibly underrated. It's awesome!

I love this - the title is perfect, as the image really does depict loneliness. Very sad and beautiful.

I think I would like the shot just as much without the partially exposed fella on the left.

Even though I'm not a big fan of this type, I appreciate your achievement in free study photography. I like the colors of the sky and the detail on the wood on the 'house'. 6

I'm not so sure about your apparition here. I think the stucture alone with the sunset might work just as well. Just crop so that the structure is not so close to center. KWIM?

Building looks familiar. Tell him it's better to burn out than to fade away.

i recognize this house from Iceland.

Good idea, however the perspective seems off between the boy and the hut. (Unless of course the hut is a miniature)
09/01/2006 06:07:16 AM
Oh cool. This has to be Iceland!! ;~D

I would have loved this image without the person and a little touch of fill on the foreground.
