Lilia, As it commonly in said shit can always happen. Usually I am said that my photos are dark, but really I cannot help it. When I am getting out with the camera in hand I cannot look for smiling peple in the sun. I am looking for subjects usually half in the light and half in the dark. As it usually happens in our lives. More than forty years back I embedded the lyrics " My words but a whisper your deafness a shout, I may make you feel but i can't make you think, your sperm's in the gutter your love in the sink.." By Jethro Tull. I believe that they express the context of this photo very accurately. It is a very nice picture, but before you feel sadness please think about the first part of my note. Shit can always happen and they might be shitter than the lonely man in the park. In such cases when I feel sad and darker inside, I put the camera aside and approach my subject trying to have a word with him/her. Usually It helps. Probably it helps me more, as "...my words but a whisper your camera's click but a SHOUT" it is not the case any more. Take care. Dimitris V. Georgopoulos, Athens, Greece.

thanks, John and Steve :) John, I use Nik Silver Efex (since the first beta version) and I love it. If you don't use it, you should give it a try!

thanks very much for your comments! I use the 18mm finder and have to guess the rest - and try again, if it is not ok. :)) For the sky I use the red filter emulation in Nik Silver Efex and some other tools and UPoints

Beautiful image, Lilia! In a few glimpses of visibility you see so many human elements. The elements of which they are involved photographic activity, as well as the wonderful aspects of nature! Here we see a condition, a place, a look, a thought, a melancholy and perhaps a misery! The photo, when it is centered and meaningful as this, tells a story, a life, a time. Sometimes beautiful stories, sometimes bad stories. But the photo must always tell the life! I can not find other words to tell you how important this kind of photos. I hope that I may be well explained and you understand my congratulations for this wonderful picture! Dear greetings! Leonardo
