This one brings a strong aesthetic pleasure with itself. What strong composition! I wonder if it will be more effectrive in pure B&W instead of a sepia tone.

Very cool, I like the color choice. I like the black space next to him. It's like he's playing for himself and for no one else.

Lifelike

Hi from the Critique Club;

Ha, looks very lifelike, except the hair. Nicely set up, the jean material makes a decent background, could be a sofa. It would be nice if you had a little more DOF but that is just my personal preference...tough to do with a macro style shot. Your lighting is good and it really did make me do a double take when I opened the page.

Nice placement and you had good comments + a fav. Keep shooting!

Lovebirds For 68 Years

Comment by choltmeier:
A fitting end to an 85 year love story...

Pete passed away on 9/10/08, less than 2 months after Dorothy. He was as healthy as can be when she died. He spent the next month and a half getting all of their affairs in order, passing on prized possessions to family members and "wrapping up" all the details of their lives. He then got pneumonia and his 99 year old body that had been so healthy just couldn't hold up.

I think he was just heartbroken, missed the love of his life and his body decided it best if they were together.
