This is one of the best W/NW threads, some great images.

Not surprisingly, the human element in these photos is so strong that you can almost feel the person's emotions by his/her posture, expressions, background etc. Strong work people, can't wait to see more..

Looks like the London boy isn't doing too well in the approval ratings at the moment Lynn, perhaps this could have been used as an illustrative shot for one of the more daring papers🙂

I really like this one Robert. I think the way you've pushed the interior outdoors and/or dragged outside indoors is wonderful and exaggerates the feeling of isolation even more. The 'veil of night' sweeping across the frame, dark to light, half hiding the figure is an ingenious conceit. Cinematic is a word used often but I'd suggest its particularly apt here.

Wow. Just posted about Roberts shot to see you'd added this. The colours and expression appear as contemplative as each other. Very striking Teddy.

My favourite, so far, of all those you've posted. It's only on closer viewing that you see the lights alongside the hidden road, until then its beautifully bizarre...and isolated.

Great take on the theme.

This could be the cover photo for a book containing the contents of this thread! Excellent.

"Aujourd'hui, maman est morte. Ou peut-être hier, je ne sais pas."

Surely a cover for Camus's The Outsider. An absolute classic. 1942 was a good year for literature and films
