Very noir. I love how multilayered the various elements are -- the figure on the pedestrian sign mirroring the woman and her shadow ("walk-ing down the av-en-ue..."), for instance. The shadow looks a bit threatening, like it's spoiling for a fight! The light is amazing - almost looks like accent lighting on a movie set (film noir, of course). It must be early morning or late afternoon.

Nice work.

verrrry nice. i like the way you handle b/w (what's your secret?).

BTW, how'd your night with the homeless girl go? .....or was it 24 hours?
:iconarabienne:
Yes... Your title gives this so much more depth. The grit, the tones... Everything is just so breathtaking. The fact that you can't really see that the shadow is connected to the woman makes it even better. I actually had to look at it for a second before I realized that.

I see the shadow as a figure from the past... because you can see the balconies above, and the work on the railing is really stunning and grand, but if you look down at the street below, you see so many signs of our time: the tags, the vandalized sign, and what look like nudie magazines in the window of that store.

And the woman walks past it all, while her shadow waits for a better time.

Perhaps it is waiting for nothing?

Regardless, this made me think. So thank you, dear Katia. Thank you so much for sharing. :hug:
