About The ferries sit there with their mouths wide open. We wonder if we might not walk down to the port and become food for them. We hear that in Europe everyone is wealthy, everyone is happy. We wonder if it can really be.

In just a couple of hours, the ferries will have closed their mouths and returned to another continent, another life, another world.

As usual, serious critiques welcome!

Many thanks, Shirley. I'm happy to see you commenting on this one. I guess it's a little different from what I have been doing recently and is perhaps a little more "difficult".

AJ Miller   {K:45206} 4/14/2008
Many thanks, Keith. I think the reality is sadder than that, but it's certainly an emotive show!

AJ Miller   {K:45206} 4/14/2008
Many thanks, Michele. You sum up some of my feelings about this image. I think it's actually quite complex (and perhaps difficult), but I'm interested to hear what others think.

Shirley D. Cross   {K:141852} 4/14/2008
You're very welcome, AJ! It is different, but wonderful.:)

This is emotionally a very precious scene for me.
Your description increases the intense meaning of the photo...
Technically it is very well done, with a beautiful light and a suitable depth among the two subjects and the scene that they observes.
Congratulations AJ, an excellent photo for me.

AJ Miller   {K:45206} 4/20/2008
Many thanks Gianes. I wondered whether to "work" this a little more, but your comment encourages me to leave it as it is.

AJ Miller   {K:45206} 4/20/2008
Many thanks, Robert.

AJ Miller   {K:45206} 4/20/2008
Yes, Marian - a journey never made, and one I guess these two will never make. But maybe they are remembering the journeys their sons made, and wondering where they have got to...

Great colour and I like the juxtapose between the two men and two ships - representing different worlds. Well done AJ and thanks for the visit!
