Heartbreak

My get pushed challenge from @hopess13
My push is for you to portray emotion....without taking a portrait.
@hopess13 - this is my first attempt.

I am absolutely loving your shots of late. I haven't had time to comment but I have really enjoyed looking at them. This is great. I'm a sucker for narrow dof. You definitely met the challenge!

:( Well portrait emotion, I can almost feel it. Very cool Pov and comp, as always
April 23rd, 2014  
very cool concept, but I cannot approve the abuse of ice-cream ;) Actually, the ice-cream cone looks like a pointy hat on a dude with a melting face :) I am thinking a monochrome approach could've been more heartbreaking, the colors are quite bright and happy in this version...what do you think ?
April 23rd, 2014  
fabulous
April 23rd, 2014  
Totally nailed it
April 23rd, 2014  
@trishaclancy thank you. I know what you mean with being short on time. Thanks for finding the time today. Much appreciated.

@susale thank you Suse.

@janim thanks Jani. I wanted to keep it in colour for a couple of reasons. The first being that I use a lot of black and white and secondly I thought the pink would bring back childhood memories and have more of an innocent feel. Alas ice-cream was harmed in the making of this shot.

@kali66 thanks Kali.
April 23rd, 2014  
@claireuk thank you Claire.
April 23rd, 2014  
I am heartbroken at the waste of the icecream. Like your rationale for keeping it colour though.
April 23rd, 2014  
April 23rd, 2014  
@spanner Makes sense, thanks for elaborating!
April 23rd, 2014  
@janim No problem. Thank you for taking an interest.
April 23rd, 2014  
Oh man! This is depressing. Great shot! I kind of hope a dog at least got to enjoy it. :P
April 23rd, 2014  
Brings back memories of an incident involving an ice cream falling to the ground in the early 1980s. Still a painful loss even now.
April 23rd, 2014  
Great response to the challenge.
April 23rd, 2014  
awww, whoever lost it, I am sure is sad. love the creative thought that went into it!
April 23rd, 2014  
Nailed it!
April 23rd, 2014  
love to lick that sweet melting yummy ice cream-hA!-fav:)

LOVE!!! :)
April 24th, 2014  
Love, love, love this! What a great response to your challenge - you've taken lots of great shots for this challenge! I think this is my favourite as I think a lot of people will be able to relate to this. I always remember my parents saying if we dropped our ice cream we wouldn't get another one! Fav.
April 24th, 2014  
Excellent! :D A FAV!
April 26th, 2014
