Between you and me... I'd bet he's thinking about the new 1x layout, print sales, annoying members/Site Council and nothing too Holy... except Beer.

I like the creative composition and expression on the face. Nice use of DOF.

Jacob Jovelou Thanks Sharon. This shot would not have been possible without the 18-200, since I normally would not have brought a tele-lens for the kind of shooting I did. But without tele, I could never have achieved this result.

(I have changed the title since I believe the old one was interpreted in the wrong way).

jacob i call this enigmatic! at first it is too unreal to be believable the head looks as if it has been stuck there he looks too well groomed to be homeless & this is not helped by the strange almost brown colour cast of the pews which looks a different finish to the head. though standing back & admiring it it is so striking i really think it is a very strong image the way you have placed the head off centre & amazingly taken the shot without him seeming to be aware of your presence. its a unique shot & a highly original take too.

Jacob Jovelou Very interesting to read your thoughts Gerard. He was aware of my presence. Thanks for commenting.

The title puzzles me.
The image is great, ... it makes me stop ...

Jacob Jovelou Thank you Anna :) :) Like I told Elisabeth, the title can surely be interpreted in many ways. :)

I see this in one way when i just look at the photo. Then i read the title and the whole image changed. I have a hard time letting it go, cause in my mind i am trying to figure out his problem and find a solution. It is amazing when thinking of it, how a image can have such an impact on the viewer.. A single photograph, a multi task for ones brain and emotions.. I can say for a fact you did good with this, the story, impact.. The composition is really great to! Well done! I need to let it go mow! :O))

Jacob Jovelou Yeah, don't think too much :) I'm glad it puzzles you, the title can be interpreted in many more ways than the absolute meaning of the word. Cheers!

Elisabeth Gustafson But that is the beauty of photography, that you can think, and make your own story about what you see..! (It can drive you mad though hehehe) But i have left it now, but i still like it! :O)) Cheers!
