i was visitin my god-ma's house and was about to go to sleep when i noticed the rattan chair that my grandma used to sit in.. it was propped behind this window with soft cool light seeping through.. it was less den a month since my grandma passed away and it struck me as a great moment to capture.. so i set the self timer and posed myself beside the rattan chair..

hi.. thanx all for the kind comments and critiques.. this is my first try at a challenge and found great joy in findin the photo fitting of the challenge.. cheers!
Terrific tonal range and perspective in this B&W study. Gives viewers something to think about.
he technical quality of the image is outstanding even though the hair on the subject's head appears to be soft compared to the rest of the image. Perhaps a slow shutter speed captured subject movement.
Viewers will wonder about the purpose of the garment in the chair. It does not appear to serve a purpose so might be better if it were removed.
The window is not level in the composition and will act as a distraction. Intentional angling should be 15 degrees or more to be effective and meaningful to most viewers. Anything close to being horizontal should be made horizontal.
This is a good image that will score in the upper tier.
I'm guessing he wants to hang out for a while! HAHAHA. Ok, that was a bit morbid. My only beef with this is, I never would have come to that conclusion had I not read the title of the photo. You would probably do better with a rope handing from the ceiling above the chair with a noose all ready to go. Not everyone reads the titles like I do.........
