Contemplation...


Photographed by Nazlila - I was lost in the photo - following elements appealed most to me...

1. Black and White - Somehow I love the images without colors ...colors give dimensions to any pictures but amidst all the colors the core of the picture gets subdued...

2. Posture - Girl could be interpreted to be happy or sad but the way she is sitting - laid back with the hair fallen on side and - the biggest point - the cigarette - somehow draws towards the sadness the image has...

3. Eyes - Powerful and glistening - they look straight at you as if evaluating you...

The image conveys to me of the times when you are sad and missing someone - the someone who will never come back ...someone who is your life...but is now lost forever...or of some tragic occurrence which has happened...and the girl is in deep contemplation of how to come out of it...

And would love to put this on website with due references to you...
