In The Dark*

At home.

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time,
Plans that either come to nought, or half a page of scribbled lines,
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way,
The time is gone, the song is over, thought i'd something more to say.

I've downloaded your shot Paul & will email it to you, then you can see it as it looked on me CRT:-)

Thanks for the comments all,
Rod, i've got an lcd monitor and when i posted the image i was slouching in my chair on a saturday evening enjoying the larfing and barfing juice and all i could make out was me in a glow of light. The next day sitting upright and viewing the screen from a different angle i could quite clearly make out all the background and the image had lost its feeling of melancholy fuggness (if you know what i mean) If you have an lcd screen then this photo should be appreciated whilst inebriated, it's much better. I'd be interested in seeing what it's like on a crt screen. Makes a big difference i reckon.

I've just roughly calibrated me monitor & can now see the albums that I couldn't make out before Lee mentioned them. Nice touch Paul (show off) Problem now me monitor is brighter the BHs are going to blind me:-)

Was Rembrandesque a good photographer? I can't imagine he was, if Pauls shot looks like one of his:-)

Almost Rembrandesque

This is an excellent posed shot. Comes off very natural.

Paul, all elements in the photo come together to tell the story nicely. Good work -Cat

Thanks all, Lee you're the winner! I was waiting for someone to notice the strategically placed 3 lps hidden in the dark. Your prize is a fine bottle of wine...err..sorry but it got used up in thename of art. Maybe next time:>)

Hey man, another excellent shot. The lighting is great, and the wine bottle... it reminds me I need to empty an open bottle ;-)

Very nicely shot. Nice touch with the crumpled paper and bottle of wine.

Paul where's all this sensitive artiiist coming from? You're posting some terrific stuff mate. It's a bit like life really we lose a couple but in you we have gained one. Here's me thinking you were just a boofhead:-)
