This is a wonderfully thought-provoking image.

jan said 519 days ago:

looks more like "hurt" or "pain", not necessarily "alone"

gorin-images said 519 days ago:

Excellent. Definitely captures that feeling of when you are waiting alone in the exam room for the doctor to show up. I also get the sense that it's cold in there, even though there is no way to tell from an image alone. Nice interpretation of the theme.

reality said 519 days ago:

thank you for the comments - psychodudu, jan, blizzard adn gorin-images!

out of 13 ratings only 4 comments................
i wish the ones who thought the technique and quality was sooooooo low would tell me why.
i believe the quality to be pretty darn good. 50mm shallow depth of field- focused on the message.

now low relevance i cannot argue with. obviously i did not visually communicate that well enough.

memorymotel said 519 days ago:

I love this image. Nice BW treatment and the vascular forehands are quite striking.

winetou said 519 days ago:

nice interpretation, alone in the doctor office, waiting for the test result, i hate that moment.
but this is nice picture. love it

lbimaging said 519 days ago:

I love this interpretation. I think we can all relate.

cdcootie said 519 days ago:

Very nice. Sitting in a doctors office is one of those times that I can feel very very alone. It has an odd isolating effect.

themetree said 519 days ago:

fantastic image! i feel this really hits it. very nice.

gorin-images said 518 days ago:

I read through the comments and frankly I am totally surprised that anyone would rate this low for relevance, technique, or image quality. I am a fairly critical guy, and I rated this high in all three of those categories. So I guess, I too would be very interested if one of those folks would elaborate on their rating low in one of those categories.

This is perfect. I can make so many stories. Can compose so many tales in my head for this woman. I hope she isn't truely alone. I am with her in my mind, in spirit.... A beautiful, striking, moving image.

reality said 518 days ago:

thanks memorymotel, winetou, lbimaging, cdcootie, themetree and moodeous! for raising my spirits and my technique and quality score!!! ;)

gorin-images - it is the scoring in haste. from what i can tell??? or at least that is what i hope!

gorin-images said 515 days ago:

Scorin in haste. I think you are on to something. I suspected (and publicly predicted) that would happen when they made the switch to the "forced rating" system. Now that they have upp'ed it to a 13 rating minimum per shot before you can get scores, and are forcing people to rate more accordingly, I suspect this is just going to get worse. That's really unfortunate.

I'll throw my lot in with moodeous: "A beautiful, striking, moving image."
