Ανατριχιαστικά τρομακτική η φωτογραφία σου θωμά, αλλά ακόμα περισσότερο τα λόγια του Happysad. Λόγια και εικόνα που τρομάζουν γι' αυτό που έρχεται, γι αυτό που ήδη έχει κάνει την εμφάνιση του με όλη του την ασχήμια και την άσκημη μυρωδιά του.
Θα προτιμούσα να μην έβλεπα την φωτογραφία σου, να μην διαβάσω το σημείωμα σου, έτσι για να κοιμηθώ για λίγο ακόμα τον ύπνο του δικαίου και της...βλακείας, κάτι σαν την στρουθοκάμηλο ας πούμε.
Χαιρετώ

Hello Thomas,
I like much this composition which could be very dramatic, but that it is necessary to look with humour. It is a very beautiful composition and cheer to have seen it and have put in image.
Have a nice day and week-end

Εντυπωσιακή φωτογραφία με πολύ έντονα τα σημάδια της μεγαλούπολης. Σε συνδυασμό με το κείμενο δημιουργής ένα σκηνικό που θυμίζει ταινία τρόμου κι επιστημονικής φαντασίας.

???
What is it? Who is that? How come?
Did you get into contact with the 3rd kind? The visitors form outer space?

My god! Whatever this is, it is no different than a main character of a creepy sci-fi movie. I am really curious what that "thing" is doing on the condenser of the air conditioner. Is it a toy? Is it an alien???

An original, alright. Cool tones. Did you paste over that figure on top of the AC condenser?

A funny statue in a peculiar place! You framed it well here. I like the decayed textures and colors here. Good framing too

Hello Thomas
Une très bonne photo pour illustrer une une sombre histoire!!
Un bon coup d'œil pour avoir vu ce personnage (et son ombre encore plus inquiétante sur le mur). Une image triste avec quelques touches de couleurs pour rappeler la vie.
très bien vu!!

Θωμά καλημέρα,
πολύ απαισιόδοξη η σημερινή σου φωτό με τον τελευταίο επιζόντα.Αλήθεια που την ξετρύπωσεσς αυτή την σκηνή; Όπως πάντα τέλειος συνδιασμός φωτογραφίας και σημειώματος.Η αθλιότητα των ακαλύπτων σε όλο τους το μεγαλείο, που πραγματικά σου δημιουργεί απίστευτες καταστάσεις.

Καλό σαββατοκύριακο,Δάνος
Θωμά,το Καλοκαίρι είναι εμπρός μας,υπάρχει γύρω μας φως και χρώμα,δες το και κατέγραψέ το.

Θωμά καλησπέρα,εξαιρετική "αστική" φωτό,το "πλάσμα" πως βρέθηκε εκεί?Μου θυμίζει πολύ μια ταινία τρόμου,το Mimic όπου γενετικό υλικό αναμίχθηκε και τεράστιες κατσαρίδες βγαίναν παγανιά μιμούμενες τους ανθρώπους!(Ευτυχώς ήταν αρκετά καλογυρισμένο και όχι γελοίο όπως εύκολα φαίνεται)!
Καλό Σαββα/ριακο

Very urban and abstract. You are really observant to interesting urban landscape and this is a thoughtful way of capture details. UFO alien?

Hello Thomas,
what a story you created around this photo!!! it looks like a place after a nuclear deploimant where nothing is at its place no one has survived, apart your character, to tell us the after story.
Worse, we are all living near, too near to a kind of reality like this one you describe in your photo and note, so maybe i can consider it a warning, a sad and perturbing warning...
Cheers.

You did very well.

Hi Thomas,

"He stopped moving around the city anymore. Silence everywhere,there is no one around. Even the rats were exterminated, the basic source of food. He didn't eat at all but he was still alive. Even as a shadow of his living self."

What can be written more than this?
The last survivor of a world .. that smiles love, care, protection !!

Your creation of this sense is a perfect reflection of the many hidden hearts...
I admire this concept, and you :)
I smile, saying : "NAMASTHE, DEAR THOMAS"

Take care,

jp

Hi Thomas. He seems perfectly suited to his surroundings, very melancholy with the odd bright colour for contrast. Well composed and presented. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Thomas

The abstract sculpture certainly acts as a good focal & anchor point, in this otherwise drab & uninteresting urban landscape. Its subsidiary shadow echoes the theme of the attached note. Tfs!

Γεια σου Θωμά!

Είναι απίστευτο, το τι προσεξε το μάτι σου πάλι! Υπεροχο κάδρο και συνθεση, πολύ καλή εκφώτιση, αλλά το πιο σημαντικό΄είναι ο τρόπος που "βλέπεις" τον κόσμο που μας περιβάλλει! Συγχαρητήρια!

Hi Thomas,
Your composition is interesting graphically, has dramatic strength and produces a worrying sensation, especially for the strange specimen that is sat on the compressor of the air conditioning, which seems to stalk his next victim.
There is a lot of graphical information in the image, in a setting in closed plane that works very well.
Best regards,
Josep

Phew! It's amazing how you do this and find the inspirations for your depictions. You were so right to leave it in colour. Somehow those touches of red make the whole "Scenario" more horrific. Good work

First, you discover the light and the colors. And you understand how subtle it is.
Second, you realize how perfect is the sharpness. And you understand it's an important post.
Third, you come back to the title and see there is something you didn't see.
Four, you see the shadow and you guess there is something unique in the compo.
Fifth, you don't know if it's an alien and but the meaning of "the last survivor" becomes clear...

Sixth, you can do nothing else but adding to your favorite !!!
