“A solitary, unused to speaking of what he sees and feels, has mental experiences which are at once more intense and less articulate than those of a gregarious man. They are sluggish, yet more wayward, and never without a melancholy tinge. Sights and impressions which others brush aside with a glance, a light comment, a smile, occupy him more than their due; they sink silently in, they take on meaning, they become experience, emotion, adventure. Solitude gives birth to the original in us, to beauty unfamiliar and perilous – to poetry. But also, it gives birth to the opposite: to the perverse, the illicit, the absurd.”
– Thomas Mann, Death in Venice
“-I visit this room every night…
-Visit?
-The blind always live in the rooms they live under.”
– Peeping Tom (1960)
“There is no terror in the bang, only in the anticipation of it.”
– Alfred Hitchcock
Happy October…

Spectacular photography – the quotes add drama!
Thank you, my friend. So delighted they were enjoyed. Happy November to you,
Autumn Jade
Thanks for the B/W world of yours, they truly stand out and talks for themselves.
Thanks so much, Hans! 😀 All the best,

Fantastic
😀 Thank you
Great series of B&W shots ~ the first one sets the tone, I enjoyed analyzing it if that makes sense, and the last two are what B&W photography is about, using light and shadows perfectly.
Thanks so much, very glad you enjoyed them 😀 Cheers,
aj
Love this so much…thank you!
Thank you! Cheers 🙂
Hi Autty, your first photo is amazingly deep, like the man in your quote. Very wonderful. The other photos were exquisite, too, but the first one captured my heart.
Thanks so much, Marsha. Delighted you enjoyed it. Was just leafing through a little series of similar images made during a past December in Maryland and Pennsylvania (been ardently missing snow). Thank you for paddling by, dear friend. Cheers- aj
