Tough night out?

matt said 519 days ago:

i like it and i think it fits nice at the topic.
the grain and the overexposure are giving a well atmosphere.

This creeped me out last time I saw it, and I haven't changed my mind over time. God knows what he's done...!

dunny said 519 days ago:

great shot.

King said 519 days ago:

Part of me hopes I don't know who this is, and part of me want to guess (sounds of stifling).

Looks like motel morning remorse.

Maybe the light streaming in from the window is just too bright and that's why you blew out all the highlights around the window. I guess this was shot on film.

Okay, what's the story?

King said 519 days ago:

...meaning the light was too bright for the guy sitting on the bed, so he's shading his eyes.

Ana said 519 days ago:

If I had not seen this one before, and sort of known the story of why it was originally taken, I'd be more inclined to try and guess the story. That said, it's still a very strong image.

tell the story, please.

zulu said 519 days ago:

Great! Is this a self portrait? What a stupid job have this guy that he is so depressed at the morning?

eggplant said 519 days ago:

I've seen this (I think at Vazaar) and I like it again. Great drama, pathos. I would like to know this story.

ArneG said 519 days ago:

Thanks for the feature people!

Okay - here is the story - I'm travelling on business and CANNOT SLEEP - I just cannot get there for the second night in a row. This was actually taken around 4:00AM. The blown out light is actually coming from the bed side light - I tried to make it as harsh as I could and still retain some detail.

@King - this was digital.

King said 519 days ago:

...so you added a texture layer or someting like that? Why couldn't you sleep? I usually can't stay awake.

Congratulations. Who woulda thunk a couple of pictures of naked men would be the first two features?
