The slight haggardness of the woman juxtaposed with the pawprint shirt is outstanding. The sense of movement, her position in the frame as she is exiting - a moment we have almost missed.
10 from me. The composition is really powerful. I don't mean some simple emotion. I mean a very strong sense of foreground moving backwards from left to right. face and hand come forward very powerfully, even as they are obscured by the frame and each other.
Almost too close for comfort. Such intensity of feeling rarely conveyed in an amateur photograph. Could be a Life Magazine editorial exclusion at their own loss. bump
Wondering why I like this so much... Not that it matters, I'd just like to be better at discerning the reason for the impact of a shot like this. Love it!
None what so ever. That is why I taught my son to never speak badly about any woman, any girl. She for sure, may be a mother of the child that leads us into survival in time of economic crisis, war, sickness and hardship.
Thank you for participating, I am honored! 7
