I never seem to pick a "pretty" picture for these years best things...only a photograph that makes me feel something. This photograph makes my heart ache. It's wildly personal, so much so I imagine without its story, it might bore the usual viewer; a messy snap, a cord to nowhere, barely in focus...a deeply flawed, but real portrait. Good light though, always the good light.

But this simple photograph reminds me, and that's all that matters....that is the beauty and purpose of it.

Your short essay makes me wish I had scored it higher. Beautiful everything here. Keep doing what you're doing.

The whole image speaks of an obscured/hidden event, but not the final act.

Great description which I needed to read tonight. And yes, the light is lovely.

projected score? ;)

if that was me standing by my bed and looking at a clock saying 5:59, I'd be saying either "I should start cooking dinner soon" or "man, I gotta get to bed soon...but what a fun night!"
I don't "get" early-risers.

6 from me. :)
