3rd Place
End Of Chapter*
by Arthur (Art 2)

My older brother, taking a break while clearing out the apartment of my father, who died in August.
I was a little unsure wether to submit this picture, but I actually like the photo as a documentary image. And it's a good description of my life right now.

I'm sure many of us can identify with what is happening here; the best pictures (of course) tell a story. Excellent. Phil

The look on his face says it all.. distant memories seem to have taken him away.. Excellent b&w tones..

Shish Kebab! ART you are the champ of B&W but this picture means som much more than just good composition and conversion. Without your explanation it would just be a tired guy before cleaning his home. Now I can feel his mood and the increased gravity on his shoulders. A whole life is on the floor to the left and the story is just about to be told. One of the most moving images I've seen in any challenge so far. Not by itself but in your context. I'm very, very sorry for your loss. But I'm also thankful for you sharing this photo with us. It means alot to me. Thank you. /Jonas
