Description

"It's too bad," he thought as he gazed at the young couple across the street. "They have no idea of the tragic fate that awaits..."

Musings from a series in the style of film noir. I shot these in Lisbon and liked the setting because of the low light levels at night, the long shadows, and the shiny Portugal stone paving that looked wet no matter what the weather was like. Shot at a higher ISO to give some noise to mimic old film grain.

A striking image that draws the viewer right into the scene! I love the wealth of detail, the square format and the crisp black & white rending. #4597908
