Ritual

Can you find the girl that even so much as acknowledges my

presence? :-(

Oh my. This photo has some strange power I can't put my finger on. Maybe the way the circle of women curves around, down the steps? I immediately liked this scene. It is fortunate that the men are partly obscured and don't grab our attention. The variety of postures in the group on the right has natural interest, with the lady in the midi-length, light-colored skirt pulling the two groups together. Also, the setting! It reminds me of a Roman ruin or similar dramatic location. Great title! It's almost...scary. :-) I suspect this is one of those photos that will strike some people as very evocative, others as mundane. For me, very much the former.

Yes, you saw what I saw. Very well put. I also liked how the angular sharp-edged steps slice through the group. Nice comments. Thank you.
