Svetlana, sometimes I wonder where us artists would be without a burgeois to confuse. Maybe *that* is why I stay at DPC! I love it when you play with concepts like a poet-juggler.
Such a beautiful photo! Love the the lighting and the poof of powder? I'm sure if I go listen to the song it will make better sense to me. But I love how you always throw deep meaning into your photos. So good to see a challenge entry from you again. Congrats on the top 20!
You have captured life here; in fact, this photo is itself life (not reflecting life, but being life itself). And like life, everyone wants to understand it, we break it down, so that we can articulate something about the individual elements, the light, the darkness, the shadows, the powder, the almost hint of smile on the girl . . . we want to be able to say how they fit, because trying to understand the whole is beyond us. We follow the signs, looking for answers as to what it all means. But how does it all fit? Like life, how does that death from cancer fit? How does that accident fit? How does that war fit? How does that genocide fit? How does that newborn fit? How does that dance or that song fit? This image has certainly made me think, Svetlana. Thank you.
I don't understand the title, nor the photos relevance to the challenge, BUT I really like this. It is one of those photos that even though the viewer may not nderstand the author's intent, you can invent your own narrative for the picture. I'm not being very articulate here, but I am trying to say that is a winner for me!
i wish i could understand this photograph because if i did i would probably give it a higher mark, hwever even as it stands because of the great black and white conversion it scores a 7 from me
I love this image...not sure how it fits the challenge, but I will take your word for it and assume I am missing something...excellent light and interest...9
This is beautifully done! I am not entirely sure how it fits in with "beginning of the end", maybe after the challenge is over you can explain a bit? However, it is a wonderful image, cold just seeps out of it, cold and humanity at the same time. ~10
beautifully shot,love the lighting,and the model is quite attractive but i have tried for several minutes to tie the shot and the title together but i cannot..... 8 anyway /8
