		from kovacik/Tomas (1,939) on May 27, 2012 1:29:15 PM CDT (2) Very good. I like this kind of photography, this kind of documentary of our times. In years this photos will become more valuable. Nice B&W conversion, great DOF, daring composition (I like the anonymity of the girl in the foreground), good moment. Reply  Show ratings

She has a look that could be interpreted as envious (perhaps about her youth?). The boy doesn't interact in the scene, and I think the picture would have been stronger if he wasn't there. I'm not sure why we don't see the girl's eyes. The space on the right also doesn't add anything imo.

The left hand side is tilting much more than the right hand side, adding to the uneasiness of the perspective lines and the lady's "perplexity". The young woman is the dividing line, between the balanced right hand side and the tilting left hand side. Both the boy and the young woman have their backs towards the older lady. We are the only ones that notice her situation and she is confronting us.. This is not a street shot or a rough camera snapshot, it is created in Photoshop, but only so much that one will still accept it as "reality". ;o)-max- Reply
