IMO, life is a series of defining moments. Moments that shape and change us, and have a huge impact on our development and our choices. They aren’t always easy to recognize and often require consideration. Like this woman... I don't know her.. I can't say what she was deciding about but she was on the brink of it. So be it.

Yeaaah, I did not get this at all for the challenge and I looked at it for ages. Just sort of looked liked you shot a candid then added grain and hoped for the best. Maybe if you added a description to your comments afterwards I would slap myself on the head and say "yep' I get it now" I agree with streetpigeon on his 1st sentence, but then I have no idea what he is talking about. I don't think I am artsy enough to understand this photo or his comments Sorry =(

Well-caught moment of an expression that's so iconic that we can plug right into her emotion. The person next to her with her frilly hair ornament and the unassuming black and white presentation round the image out in a thoroughly satisfying way. Great stuff.
