I really love how simplistic this photograph is. its what attracted me to it in the first place. i love that she is not "done up" and that her shirt blends in with the background. It gives the impression that she is invisible, or unhappy. Her expression seems so natural, and thats how i think i can relate it to my work. ive always tried shooting people when they are not trying to pose for the camera, but when they are just being themselves. this photograph actually seems kind of dark to me, which is weird considering how bright it is aesthetically, but i think its from her tired eyes, slight frown, and her head turned to a profile view.
