There is something optimistic in that one for me

Psychologists could use that image as a Rorschach test  ;D

Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."

What a striking portrait!

Thank you. She's a difficult model; does not like to pose. But she likes to play with fire...so it worked out  ;D

This one is beyond exceptional.  Evergreen and rain are two of natures gifts that I truly love.
There will never be another era like the Golden Age of Hollywood.  We didn't know how to blow up buildings then so we had no choice but to tell great stories with great characters.-Ben Mankiewicz

Very nice, aligreto - the composition reminds me of some of my own photos actually. I might have tried to see if that ruin's reflection could have been made to not touch the near shore, though.

It was not possible to change the angle much; it was already too dangerous standing in the mud.

Excellent shot! I love castle and fortress ruins. Mrs. Rock and I spent much of our youth hiking to and exploring German and French ruins. I seldom took a camera with me though  :(

Thank you Sarge. There can be something very tranquil about castle and fortress ruins even given their usual violent histories.

Certainly! Nothing wrong with colours either, though.

Lovely shades of green. Outstanding.

Cheers, the light was good last evening, as usual when it's not too cloudy.
