This is a wonderful dark and oh-so romantic atmosphere you offer down here (as if out of old novels -Wuthering Heights ?). Some terrible thing might have happened here... Or some fantastic one will ? (but now I must let you, since I have those crows of yours to count........................ 31 ??.... :o)

Wonderful image, full of intrigue and mystery, bordering on the surreal. Excellent work.

Slightly macabre and menacing, I would feel uneasy there. Very good BW creation.

I did try but gave up when I realised I didn't know where the crows ended and the background began.
Wonderful mood

Okay, I do believe I have just seen my favourite image of the day! This is stellar! Dark and moody, the perfect amount of eeriness and all the things I love! This gets my vote on VFXY!

If Hitchcock and Poe were to go fishing together, It'd be at this lake.

It reminds me of the Sleeping Beauty cartoon. Very gloomy nice!

Hi Marcah,
I agree with Lorna....This could be a creepy image of "birds"... From our good ALFRED ;-)
Very well done ! What a "dramatic" ambiance"
Cheers

Mmmmm... I absolutely love it. Superb framing and composition and tonal range. The processing gives a fantastic "pictorialist" look. It also remembers me the rendition of the "old" infra-red film.
