About Black night is not right,
I dont feel so bright,
I dont care to sit tight.
Maybe Ill find on the way down the line
That Im free, free to be me.
Black night is a long way from home.
I dont need a dark tree,
I dont want a rough sea,
I cant feel, I cant see.
Maybe Ill find on the way down the line
That Im free, free to be me.
Black night is a long way from home.

Deep Purple, 'black night'

In Kosovo, having a black night is part of everyone's life. There is power shortage everyday, at any time. And of course, living at these times, when so much we depent on technology, makes our lifes pritty hard- if not miserable. (i.e. you're writing a poem or editing a photo, and off the power goes, and you lost everything of that moment)!

This is a very powerful image. The focus is perfectly placed, with the subject being swallowed up by the darkness. The face and hand grab my attention and the rest of the details subtely fill in the story. Nice work. CC

fine dramatic portrait dear Visar!!!!excellent composition!!!

hope that and wish that you have only few black nights and only because you feel you want to be in the dark to conteplate or dream....
technology seems to create problems... cause with a power shortage is not only dark... it is cold too....

Lighting and the way the face hide here is amazing, that photo is not JUST a shot, that is a full story, that is a paint of the past that the human try to forget on dinks and ciwarets, that's a sadness that cannot be forget!
EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!
Best regards!!!

Dear Luis, thanks for the comment.
My name is Visar Sherifi, and my nick name is Absynthius, and i use it in my most workds.
To be honest i did not concentrate much in the details of the bottle and table or ashtray, but only their presence. As you said they are small complimantary detail the way i see. I was only looking for the mood, and the sharpness in the details of my subject-- of course it would have been better if there were details of the other elements but i'll consider that next time.
regards,
V.

Visar Sherifi is the name or is the nick...for me is the same thing..excellent vision and better angle and idea, I like the use of the light is rational criteria, highly aesthetic...

Whe can criticise poor or low details in the highlith of the bottle at the background, but is a small detail, and the poem goes with the ideological question of the image.- We keep in touch.- LUIS

Hey Michele (my belle, - remember that? :)), it is not me on the pic it is my best friend, Blerton. Last night the power went off and we were working on a project that obviously the power killed it (partially) and we were very angry then started to make some desperate jokes and take a few pictures. I thought this one conveyed the true atmosphere of last night, few drops of whiskey, an ashtrey for cigarettes and pis*** off faces!
thanks for the comment dear Michelle, my best wishes for the week,
V.

Hey Visar you are coming back with another great shot.
I really feel for you guys there as i know exactly how it feels to have black nights one after the other I lived in Kosovo for 5 years. you have portrayed that feeling of despair when you are stuck & not able to do anything.love the way you portray emotions so well in your photos.
well done my dear friend Im really proud of you

Great shot B&W visar. Great details and composition.

On another note, it sure is crummy being without power...even more crummier having to depend on it for every day life. Warm regards.

Excellent image Visar...I like this darkness and the ( your?))) Eye looking straight into the lens..the reflections and , smoke... the liquor bottle ...I like the entire composition ...Ohhhh and the 'about' matches well with this image ..
I am sorry when you loose power.. here in my small town on the coast we loose it all the time too...in the winter generally the most ..for days at a time and I understand that agravation so well.

Kind regards my friend,
Michele~
