A Definite Lack of Stress

Your title made me come back to this and look again. There's definitely some gravity between bench and tree. And a mysterious sign in the ground...

When light and rhythm dance...

Beautifully understated.

Those are the stillest of all. I like the stark "deadness" of this.

Despair

I do wish that excellent portraits such as this be left to stand on their own. I don't feel despair. As such, I now have to step back and consider how well you conveyed what you're suggesting with your title.

I see an honest, intimate, piercing portrait -- none of which precludes despair, but I'd rather find it (or not) on my own.

I say I don't score titles, but that doesn't mean I don't occasionally rant about them. A seven for you.

A touching portrait. Years of hard work and true companionship really come through here. Glad you weren't put off by the difficult lighting. In fact, I think it helps tell the story.

Excellent.
