A solid piece of photo journalism, this image is effective at presenting the subject with sensitivity. Rich detail and the intense visage compliment the vaguely detailed background. While this is a unqualified technical success, from an artistic standpoint, the color detracts from the subject's emotional impact and it might have been more effective as a black and white or grayscale - the color just seems too bright and positive by comparision to the title. Having said that, it is effective and should rate high in the competition. Well done. |
