Very atmospheric. Like it Charlie. Alistair

Hey thanks......I'm not usually this "dark" but it seemed to make sense to depict the "ghosts" of the past in the house. I guess it in turn represent the "future" as well

Keep getting drawn back into this pic.
So curious and mysterious kind of feel to this shot.
I like it.
Don.

Disquieting shot. I feel a cold blow in my nape, somewhat about of persistence of beings in uninhabited places... Fortunately, I know that the guy in the mirror is you; also I thank you for your explanation: beautiful project indeed. endika

So full of questions. I like all the things this says to someone. It seems the man in the mirror is in despair too. (I know it is you but without knowing that, that is what I see when looking at the shot) Oh yes, I also get the feeling he wants out of one mirror to run up the steps to escape in the other mirror. Just an amazing shot all around Charlie!

Yes Frank....."symbolic" of self indulgence. I'm doing a project with this house as it gets rehabbed and given to a person of little means in need of housing. Should be interesting to see this place transform. As it is now I was a bit scared to be in it alone. Other peoples remnents and filth is both creepy and fascinating.

Seriously, you excelled again.

You said something about "rules" What are they? ;-)

Finally! A tripod for a nice clear shot!

You break all the rules in such a pleasant way, Charlie - great shot!
