The replies I get to the progress of this image are very interesting and
diverse. #2 was all about his sorrow, somehow, and she was leaving really
carelessly. You're right about #4, his hand had that jerky pose which was
much like flinging it away after her. I've just finished what I'll call
"Final Goodbye", for me, it nails what I was looking for. Of course, there
may be different interpretations, but, after all, I'm the artist of my
images. ;-)

Thanks for the comment!
