Gerolamo, thank you for your exchange, and your comment on this pic........?!

John, I love your comments, this one pleases me especially!

I thought that if you paste something which smells on HTML or hyperlink or SPAM, then you return the cursor (after removing that whatever you pasted) back to before the place where you did it and start writing again!

Best regards

Welcome Bobby and thank you for your kind comment! You say ...shot...but I believe you certainly don't think that it is one shot, ha! Six shots as I can count!

A very well put together image, for me it is the relationship between life, facsimile of life and death.

Happy Christmas and a prosperous new year my friend.

Your infinite imagination is always evident Pierre. What I am most impressed about within your compositions, is the focus and clarity of each element. It is always outstanding Pierre!

Hey, Gail!

For each element is a separate PSD file made of especially good in clarity and all objects my montages pictures are all clear and sharp!

It is not a bad idea to blur those in the distance and to make the impression of a real photograph of one shot, but it won't be then surreal and I'm a surrealist! 

Thank you for your visit and your nice compliments!

Wish you Merry Xmas and a Happy new year!

Best regards

I place myself into the figure of the man walking along the shoreline.  He is reflecting about his life, about his own impermanence.  He sees the waves roll in, and what is left of them remaining on the beach for a short time and then returning to the sea.  He does not notice Father Time standing in the shadows.  That's probably fortuitous, because he would not want to know whether Father Time had come for him.  And, as an aside, it's quite amazing that Father Times comes disguised, trying to look like one of us.  "Death comes to us all; we can only choose how to face it when it comes."

My best wishes, my friend, for you and yours to get all you wish from this holiday season,

Mio caro Pierre, è molto che non ci vediamo perché sono stato molto impegnato con mia madre che è morta il 18. Era anziana ma, non è tanto per dire, la morte della madre è sempre un gran dolore. Comunque quell'uomo che si dirige verso sinistra a testa un po' china...mi suscita tanti pensieri. Ciao, amico e tantitantitanti auguri! Maurizio.

Michael,

very interesting and for me unexpected interpretation of this image! When I think and look better it fits all the elements and the picture as a whole therefore!

Have a good luck in the year to come and Merry Xmas!

Best regards

PDE

Maurizio,

mi dispiace tanto! Voglia accettare le mie condoglianze! La mia mamma è morta in questo periodo due anni fa! So come è!
Sapevo che qualcosa ti è successo perché tu eri assente più di un po '!
Grazie per la tua visita e speriamo che il prossimo anno sarà migliore per tutti noi!

Ti auguro, e la tua famiglia il meglio!

PDE

Very creative work as usual my friend. I love the combination of various elements to result in that piece of art, Very well done Pierre.

Merry Xmas and Happy new year,

Take Care.

Patrick

Oh, welcome my dear Patrick,

I visited a lot of your pages and you finally came to visit me! Thank you for your compliment and felicitations,

all back to you my dear friend!

Best regards

Always a treat to see what you've come up with lately.  Your subject looks like he came out of Willy Wonka's Chocolate factory.  However, I have it on good authority that this guy was the real archeologist, before turning to photography, that is.   :-) Thanks for a great year.  See you in 2014.  Happy New Year.  LM.

Hey, Len!

Who doesn't meet real people he must do fake ones from what's he got! I got plenty of monuments and such things and I make fake heroes out of them!

Sure, Happy New 2014 Year!

Thanks your your visit and greetings!

PDE

Happy new year to you ,and all of yours my dear friend.

Saad

Hooray to that, Saad! And what about the picture...?!

PDE

Interesting, original and very well done! I like the tonality and the colors.

Happy New Year, Pierre! Best wishes for the new 2014 year. Evgeni

I was waiting for you, my friend, colleague and neighbor!

Thank you for your nice comment!

Happy New Year 2014 to you and to all your fellow countrymen!

Hi Pierre...i wanted to wish you a Happy New Year and thank you for your continued support of my work...this image is very interesting and thought provoking...setting sun, a man walking on the beach, sculpture of a bearded man wearing a real hat and shirt and the tombstones...interesting color palette of browns remind me of decay...archaelogy seems to fit...regards....David
