"Que je me suis noyé sans toi...
Ne me pardonne pas, mais ne m’oublie pas
Ne m’excuse pas, mais ne nous oublie pas..."
I decided to use this to end my light series...It's been pretty long, or well the longest series I've done. Hope you liked it if you remember all the images.. :)

The spilling light and little prism flare in the shot makes for a dynamic abstract pairing with all else that fills the frame. Yeah, I enjoyed the series!
