In the gloom of a Glasgow Museum. A place where you wouldn't want to be alone.

I wouldn't expect to find a "dark alley" in a museum, but this one is terrific.
Well seen!

@stamper,

This is a well seen and crafted image; the silhouettes of the figures work to isolate them in the gloom of the museum and also take out that bright, open doorway aas well. This is cleverly balanced with the screens running across the image space and the perfect counter of the face, far left, looking back (almost) at them. I don't know if the bleed into the frame edge on the left of this was intentional or not - I'm not sure whether I want to see some separation between that figure and the frame edge or not to be honest - but it is a very necessary parto f the image.

There's actually a lot of things that work well here (even leaving out the tonal balance achieved) - the 'flow' of the screens down and across the image, the neat reflections in the floor and even those three spotlights filling the space in the upper right. Gloomy (creepy?) perhaps but a very interesting shot nonetheless.

Thanks for sharing and kind regards, N.
