[QUOTE="Iman60, post: 36728, member: 7998"] I am going to be different and say that it is a matter of viewer perspective. Gents ... you are following established rules here rather than looking at the emotive value of this photograph. Where there is light... there is hope from the darkness. While you are both right; you have both not considered a deeper meaning here; a more ambigious intention. I stand with you on this one Tashi, I think outside the box as well. Critique is valuable and should not be readily dismissed. But as we consider the rules, we must also be clear about the intention. I would suggest in future, Tashi, that when you approach a subject like this, you should be clear about your intentions. Without that clarity, we only have the rules to fall back to. [/QUOTE]
