Ayda, masterful lighting and composition. I was in two minds about the phone at first. I thought some writing paper, a pen and inkpot may be better but now that I have returned to the picture I think the modern phone sits well against the antique lamp. Great work. Paul.

I love this image. The light is so soft and subtle but perfectly bright enough. Congratulations on a fine shot.

The soft light is wonderful. The contrast between the classic and the modern works really well.

Modern still-life and very well taken in the "dark". I like the jet-black B/W, maybe a little crop in the bottom to avoid the edge of the table, but a great and modern shot, Ayda !

What a fantastic composition!!! Everything looks perfect, from the light to mood.
And that is so true... Waiting for the phone to ring is terrible, almost as terrible as when it finaly rings and... no, it's not the one we wanted to listen too :-(
Great mood! A beauty! A gem!
Bravissima!

The light play is perfect here. The cell phone - adds something here, I feel it's needed. I would think about this small piece of cable on the left - I'm not sure if it was intentional...? Anyway, good work.

Ayda,
this is just superb!! I love every detail of this shot and specially the light.. it seems to be all the composition suspended in time (as the romance itself, maybe?).
contrast of shapes and modern/antique is strong here but made a great matche.
One of my favs now :o)))))))))))
Congrats.

Wow, beautiful composition, Ayda. I find this shot very modern looking, very metallic. At the limit, we could find it cold. But it works marvelously. Excellent!

Beautiful composition and light which conveys very strong mood. The details of the lamp are so special and this add to the picture. I'd call it an art.

Hi Ayda..Such a haunting poem written by a beautiful heart....
And a lovely work of art to accompany it. I like the simplicity of your composition and the complexity of it's meaning. The phone works well as you chose. Just beautiful....:O)

Hi Miss Ayda. I missed this. Glups. I'm unforgivable. This picture talk so much to me. The note is great and makes the photo take its complete meaning. Waiting ours and ours fo ra phone that never ring is for the moment my second "favorite" activity after TL. The little moon in the corner is excellent. It shows that at night the chance that the phone starts to ring raise down... I like what you've done right there. It is a usefull picture. Thanks for that.
Big hugs, take care.
Denis.

This is a great shot Ayda, conveying the mood you wanted to show very well. The B&W with soft lighting is excellent.

This is a very sharp picture. The quality is impressive, I have no difficulty imaging it as an ad in a magazine. I like the minimalistic feel to it. It's a simple composition but very symbolic. This goes into favorites, great shot!

Hi! Ayda,
Stunningly Athmospheric, and Technically perfect. A masterly use of lighting, for it is the quality of the lighting here that conveys the mood. I must investigat this make of camera. Ayda.
The tonal range here surpasses that of Old bromide printing.
You have done for digital what fibre did for bromides.

************** A triumph for the age of digital *************

TFS.
