Many of Horror by graemestevens

Many of Horror

You say "I love you, boy"
I know you lie
I trust you all the same
I don't know why
'Cause when my back is turned
My bruises shine
Our broken fairy tale
So hard to hide

Inspired by the Biffy Clyro song 'Many of Horror (When we Collide), and because I care here's a link to said tune:

Best viewed on black if you have the time.
Fantastic on black! I love how you use light, contrast, and black negative space.

Powerfully done and told. Fav!

Nice work - great tones.
February 25th, 2015  
Because of all the black all focus goes to the pose. Moving.
February 25th, 2015  
hmm...that song is a little too soft for this image. You need something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_aMnV1uaCY

I think your wife needs to give you a cuddle or something as you are looking very distressed lately!
February 25th, 2015  
Aw, poor Graeme. :}
February 25th, 2015  
U need a hug...sweet low key!
February 25th, 2015  
Fantastic. It moved me. And, it does look spectacular on black.
February 25th, 2015  
I saw this on the TP, and knew it was yours straight away. Despite you wearing more clothes than usual. Superb shot.

February 25th, 2015

February 25th, 2015  
Perfect shot for jeans advertising!!
February 26th, 2015  
@joemuli I've always found it disconcerting that the label on my jeans says "1970" which is my year of birth. What are the odds that they'd be the best fit?
February 26th, 2015  
Do they have any that say 1987? I'm always looking for jeans that fit right.
February 26th, 2015  
@spikez I didn't look for those - I don't want to be seen as trying to be too young ;)
February 26th, 2015  
So glad to read, from the comments, that you are not falling out in anguish... which you appear to be ready to do here. You have really captured a powerful and evocative mood - it makes me sad to see it, for the pain it conveys. I guess that is a compliment. :)
February 26th, 2015  
having a bad day are we? definitely glistens on black... awesome!
February 26th, 2015  
@northy A surprisingly good day so far thanks ;)
@rosiekerr Thank you so much - I'm just peachy keen thanks but it would seem that I can say "mission accomplished" with this shot :)
February 26th, 2015  
Tremendous use of lighting here.
February 26th, 2015  
@bigugly Thank you kindly good sir :)
February 26th, 2015

February 26th, 2015

@annied I really really (many reallys) thank you. That is all.
February 26th, 2015  
Creates a narrative and is beautifully photographed to convey the tight sad world he imagines he inhabits.
February 26th, 2015
