under the streetlamp by summerfield

under the streetlamp

i am reading a novel "the faithful place" by tana french and there's this part where one of the side characters was waiting under a streetlamp and this idea of padraigh penwyn standing under a lamp just kept popping in my head. i just had to execute it. it looks noir, northyish even, mind you, although i couldn't quite get the light.

and even better is that there is actually a song titled "under the streetlamp" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_xolLdFzHs although i don't know if i actually like it.
Great on black (& I’m a Tana French fan...)

It seems like it’s been such a long time since I have seen him in any of your photos! This one is executed very well I think the light is great, I think it does look like one of Northy’s photos and I agree with you about the song but mostly because it sounds so old. Altogether well done!

You have a dollhouse lamp? It’s so cute!

The lighting is better when viewed on the black background. Interesting scene. You know, I have a penguin standing in my backyard. Perhaps some portraits are due.

He just needs a little fog and a Fedora! Secret Agent Man is running through my head.
