Description
So many thingsI've wished
So many wishes
Didn't come true
So many truths
Will keep on wound me
So many wounds
Will make me stronger
Strong, I wish I was....

Mmm I love the concept behind this piece, it tocuhes me. So many wishes I have made, so many of these little fairies have I blown from their stems.
Brilliant. I love the name of the piece as well.

nobody survived, we all have given up...
very emotional to me. the b&w fits well.
may i ask what background you used? looks to me like leather?
π: 0 β©: 1
yes, it's a leather notepad-case I have on my desk.... actually it's more useful as background then as a case
thanks for the comment mate, I'm glad you liked it

A heavenly wish
Hope it will become reality
breathtaking shot and it makes me wonder if there is anything you can't get to look good on film

this is beautiful. usually i'm a fan of high contrast, but all the grays work well.

I like high contrast too, but in this period I'm trying to use soft contrasts as I think thay can convey great feelings too... you know, I'm just a walking-work in progress
btw I'm glad you liked it, especially 'cause it was not exactly your cup of tea

Tommy, I've had this on my watch for several days now and I'm still not entirely sure what to say about it... I just get this overwhelming feeling of... I dunno... poignancy? I'm not sure if that's the right word or not... it's a very powerful piece. Wishing = dreams = hope. Dreams not realised = crushed = depressed.

I think that words fits greatly with the sensations I wanted to catch, I'm happy you liked it, but I don't see it so negatively, I believe that there is also a positive thought in it.... to you finding it

the b&w goes with the emotion i think...

it's exactly why I decided to rotate it, I wante to enrich a little its positive menaning (as I believe it has a positive meaning too)... thanks for your honest opinion, you know I appreciated it, don't you?

Concordo con te .. con la rotazione di 90Β° mi piace di piΓΉ

Great symbolism. And a wonderfully executed shot. Really like the composition and the B&W suits this so well. Beautiful.

actually I'm wondering if this could work better rotated vertically.... what do you think?

Hmm, I think you're right.

che bella! mi mette tristezza, ma Γ¨ bellissima!

mettiamola così. lo scatto è triste e vuole esserlo... difficile è vederne il lato positivo e la speranza (che secondo me sono presenti)

A strong feeling of sadness...and the different shades of grey are just beautiful. I love the details...so crisp.
It's very expressive Tommy.

thank you Sarah, I know, this shot is sad, but it also have a certain positive attitude to the future.... btw I'm happy you liked it

So sad shot. Great idea to shot it in black and white. It adds more expression on it.

omg..... i just went weak in the knees..... this picture actually gave me anxious, worried, crazy butterflies. When i saw the thumbnail i had a little 2-3 line poem running through my head.... i opened this comment on it... and i saw that you wrote down my words already. This is fabulous.. this is tragic, heartbreaking and yet fabulously portrayed. it just.... is perfect... a perfect representation of where *I* am in my life.... and i find that amazing. This is really beautiful work tommy.... i just... love it.
