I’ve been a bit under the weather this week with a head cold It's been hard coming up with any ideas but I wanted to make an effort to get something up. These cold meds make it hard for me to judge this image but the name means a lot to me. I hope some will like it and share its meaning.

Thanks for stopping by,

Out of its realm, thrown into an unfamiliar world of darkness and despair, it finds a way.

Great shot, looks like the head cold hasn't affected your judgement too much.
I sort of assumed you, taken the photo full colour then used sponge to desaturate, but i may be wrong.
If you go to Steves Wrong Way To Start The Day, i can recommend the cold cure there.
Take care and get well soon.

Hi Mike,

Exquisite lighting. As usual you entry blows my socks off. A powerful and thought provoking image. Good luck this week, but I think you won't need it.

Wow, as yet another exceptional entry! I don't think your cold as affected your creativity one bit, but I do hope you are feeling better. I would certainly love to know more about your pp techniques. Thanks for sharing with all!

Hi Mike! So sorry you're under the weather, my friend. If only it had some diverse effect on your photography! () You know I'm teasing.

I think you've posted another winner, my friend. Love, like Hope, springs eternal.
Elegant imagery, and the lighting and use of color are perfect. You're a master!

Hi guys! I'm glad you liked the piece. I felt a little better tonight and fine-tuned the image a bit. Thanks so much for your sentiments and kindness.

The PS work on the shot consisted only of ( dodge, burn, and sponge)

Congrats, finalist! This is a great image - and so much more since it goes deeper than nicely arranged pixels!

Mike,

Beautiful shot. It does convey a message. Question for you, will you share with me what your shutter speed and aperture setting were for this shot? Again, love the concept and enjoy the execution.
