Take a Word - Dark


This week's challenge was to create something dark.  I think I've scared myself!  Background is from Creative Commons, image is public domain, mouse is Holliewood Studios.  Thanks for stopping by.  I'm going now to think some happy thoughts!!

I had all sorts of troubles posting this.  There seemed to be cybergremlins abounding in Blogger.  Lucky to get this small one posted!

    Fortunately, Bev, your picture comes up beautifully when enlarged. I love the textures, colours and setting of mood. A great piece of art and a quote that resonates as much today as in the time of Emily Dickinson.

    This is a very strong piece Bev, it is made so that you can sense the feelings of how the young woman's life is right now, well done.

    Dark in her surroundings and dark psychologically, a very expressive image that really gives the feeling of Emily's quotation. A beautiful representation of the Dark Theme.

    Truly dark. And that quote is a new one for me. Maybe I should put it over my desk-I work with men recovering from addictions. lol
