HNT - Shadows

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

“The risk of love is loss, and the price of loss is grief -
But the pain of grief
Is only a shadow
When compared with the pain
Of never risking love.”

~ Hilary Stanton

NOTE: I likely won't be able to make the HNT rounds this week, but will stop by to visit y'all once I get back to the "real" world and "real" internet connections!

Dana, that's a beautiful image and very a evocative quote. I needed to hear that today, so thank you.

I had the same thought as Osbasso, did you take this shot at your aunt and uncles?

I really like this picture! I'm still trying to figure out if it's in a sort of sepia tone or just very desaturated.

Great!

Happy HNT!

The way you have set this with the shadows and the sepia make this a very delicate and erotic shot.

Happy HNT!

That is, quite simply, a beautiful photograph - and it suits the happy/sad words perfectly too.

Here's hoping you have more happy than sad to come :)
