This is an interesting photo. Since it is a photo, the woman in the background causes me to look at it again and again. (If this was real-time, I would feel a need to look away.)
The woman in the middle staring at the camera adds so much--she seems like she would pull your attention away from the main subjects, but she doesn't (at least for me), yet her presence adds something interesting. I also like the angle in this picture.
