Hey Kaj,
Nice to see a dark-room photo, they're becoming rare ;-)
I realllly luv thisone, not because it sheds darkness on your work, but I couldn't have expected something more balanced from a PoV where you hardly can make out who is standing on whose feet...
For example, the bottleneck is jutting out of nowhere; where is the table, the hand...
How can those people be so still I can understand, but how so tranquil... I would shriek with the strain!
And then, naturally you click angle and exposure right tight and here's a scene where everything is at its place and no other's, with outlines so brilliant... A pinch of light, please.
Sorry, you have to grope in the obscurity of my comment, after all...:)
C U in more light, F'

Another excellent one Kaj: mysterious depth, rich, warm colours, provocative postures and just enough light on each element to show clearly what it is, without revealing detail. Well seen and captured again.

hey...
very atmospheric shot. and nice figures. i love the cotrast of sorts between the bespectacled man on the right, and the girl in high heels on the left. the light is extremely well-used, and the "right" (i am being politically incorrect) figures have been silhouetted.
those heels are the clinches in the shot!
