Thats just ACE!!
I love the pictures in the corner... The fact that you can see that he is turning his head...the tonal range...
Really great photo.
Maybe i would cal it "moving out" as to me it looks like he has left...IMO
Thats fantastic. not usually my cup of tea.... but I LOVE this.
I agree that "moving out" might be better for a title.... it looks like he has bodily gone but his spirit remains in the house.
Perfect! Stunning IMO....The detail in the floor, the light and tone. Love the pics in the corner. Really well done shot and processed. Easily the best I've seen from you IMO.
Thank you to all for your very generous comments. To answer some of your questions:
I actually did consider "Moving Out" as the title as it seemed more emotive but I actually AM moving in, so...
Minimeeze, yes, I am the human subject in the image.
Matty, this was inspired by having recently read about the photographic image "Boulevard du Temple" by Daguerre in 1838. At the time, the image was criticised for not showing any human activity on the busy street - this was caused by the extremely long exposure times necessary. Daguerre seems to have foreseen this problem and, it is thought, he posed a shoe-shine stand and customer for the duration of the 20-30 minute exposure as they are the only clearly distinguishable human figures in the image.
I tested it once and seemed to have it right, so I took the shot and liked it. 20 second exposure - and I quickly stepped in, sat for 7-8 seconds, then quickly stepped out.
