Was wondering what this man was doing in this incongruous position (given the place). Turns out he was just sorting papers and phoning.
Appeared as a strangely poetic scene nevertheless.
Marina Sands Congress Center, Singapore. Shot on the fly.

The lack of ability to identify where this might be adds to the captivating quality of the shot - likewise the man on his knees, looking towards the picture of the woman. The hanging lines of balls (Christmas ornaments?) and the shadows from the skylight grills add texture. Also, the lack of furniture.
Unique image....not sure what story this image is telling me....so I like the idea that I can come up with my own story of the image. I like it....very open to interpretation...which is good.
At the alter of... ? A strange ritual you've stumbled over here. I do like the framing, but at the risk of losing the viewer, I kind of wish you were closer (not a closer crop). I'm not usually a fan of portrait oriented candids, but I can't imagine this any other way. The framing and negative space are very effective. Wonderful.
