The broad side

Comment by Bear_Music:
I am a house, says Senlin, locked and darkened,
Sealed from the sun with wall and door and blind.
Summon me loudly, and you'll hear slow footsteps
Ring far and faint in the galleries of my mind.
You'll hear soft steps on an old and dusty stairway;
Peer darkly through some corner of a pane,
You'll see me with a faint light coming slowly,
Pausing above some gallery of the brain . . .

-- Conrad Aiken

I was trying to understand this image and look for possible Anagram of and I was not able to make out. Even though the photograph is really, nicely executed, if this would not have been an Anagram challenge, this would got my attention but may be I lost in the image and title :(

At the margin

Comment by willem:
The light from the left-back nicely shapes that part of the head. It really adds depth and shows the lines. There is still just enough light into the eye as well. I don't mind there is absolutely no detail on the right because the left part is great. Best male portrait in this challenge in my view.

Nice scene. It could do with a little bit of white balance correction.

Is there is meaning/message in this image? Memories of Africa? Or is this to show editing skills? I think it is very well done technically. The only thing strange is the horizontal line from shoulder to shoulder. Why?
