A scene from the Opera "Pelleas et Melisande"

Didn't intend to submit this when I took it but I think it has a lovely spooky feel to it.

I tried to leave the title open ended too to make viewers wonder what is going on behind the curtains

Only neat image since it was shot at 1600ISO

This will probably bomb but I'm starting to enjoy taking photos more now I'm not trying to get ribbons (coz that didn't work anyway)

If this challenge is about dreams then this image should have finished much higher. Regardless, a very nice entry.

A very solid and wonderful silhoutte with deeply inherent mystery. Nice treatment.
Bumping up.

Good one for Silhouettes 2. :)
If it wasn't for the 'broken' arm (with the light) I'd almost think they were in front of the curtain.
It looks great, very smooth gradation of light. Nice angle as well, shot almost from the floor?

The simplicity of this picture makes it super nice... nicely creative too! This is one of the few pictures from this challenge that has stuck in my mind...there is something very magical about it.
