    Okay John
    This is an intriguing and interesting image yet I can’t quite figure out what’s going on. 🙃

    Hi Sharon,

    I've been contemplating whether or not I should add more information or include a follow up shot, which would you prefer? Thanks for commenting.

    Re: Box

    Regardless of your decision, I think I;d prefer a bit more sharpness/clarity?

    Hi Tony,

    If you zero in on her face that's about as sharp as is necessary. Thanks for commenting.

    I think additional images would be great. She looks like she’s lying on another human being? A street person? More images may help and I’d love to see them anyhow.

    Hi Sharon,

    I'll see how many I have that won't fully reveal the story. Thanks for commenting.

    John - the problem I have with this shot are the distracting and out of focus objects in the foreground. They take away from your subject.

    Thanks John I now see the box in better ways. What a sad and tragic photograph. (Looks like something Robert or myself might take).

    I'm wondering why that right hand remains in the same place

    Interesting shot John. I like the way that you have focussed on her head (pun intended), but am not sure which of the shots tells the best story - I think I slightly prefer the last one, because there is a sense of indifference coming from the OoF lower body image of the guy in the background.

    Different, captivating and full of interest.

    Strange skin. Looks like very old, or over sharpened. But the rest of the body isn't.
    Waiting for the explanation.

    Hi Manfred,

    I had to take the shot from the seated position I was in, she was about seven feet away from me, I couldn't change my angle of view without being to conspicuous, also I'm not sure whether or not the pizza box was part of the narrative. Thanks for commenting.
