I was invited to do a shoot at The Club, an afternoon drop-in for over 18s with developmental problems. It was Lady Gaga day, and everyone had a great time dressing up and putting on facepaints. Everyone loved getting their portraits done. This beautiful woman put together the most amazing costume, and was so proud of herself.

The idea behind the Posthumous Ribbon is to encourage you to break the rules, to find new and different ways to express yourself. To free your mind to think clearly toward the solution that is certain to come, to laugh at world and at life, not doing what others are expecting you to do, but just following and listening to what's in your heart. DPC it’s a wonderful learning place where everyone should be supported on their way to be a photographer. A special attention should be aimed to those working hard with different views and approaches to photography, those not aligned with the mainstream taste and receiving no recognition. It’s our responsibility to support these photographers creating diversity and expressing different visions. Being active at the Posthumous thread it’s the best way to do it. Being active at the Posthumous thread it’s the best way to protect your and the other’s freedom of being different. Thanks for taking the time to enter this challenge. Stay wild.
quite strange. I would actually prefer this without the color or maybe with a cooler tone overall (it seems a bit warm for what it is) - I'd also like a bit more context and dimension to tell more or a story.
Quite intriguing though I must say - which is worthy of a comment and critique for sure.
I find teh crop to be too close and the composition too centered; lighting is borderline; besides that I like your idea and the expression is priceless; many stories behind this ( which makes it DNMC, BTW ). 8
