Otha in the Alzeimer's unit of an assisted living facility...she's very sweet and laughs often

Any comments welcome. This is part of the beginning of a new project

and I'd like to hear general impressions.

I think you documented her plight very well. I also like the tilted composition

She is a beautiful lady, I would like to see more of her, the hair, which is nicely speckled with grey, her shoulders, a belonging, etc. Nice tones in the black and white photo. I understand you're trying to show the surroundings, but just a little more Otha. Best regards Emma.

I don't care for the tilted composition but like your limited depth of field in the background.

This TRULY is a great photo. I'm trying to make pictures like this, too. I like the composition, the unhorizontal horizont tells me, that the psyche of the photographed person is also not stable...

Wonderful capture of emotion.....

IMHO if you shoot a tilted composition it should have a reason or more accurately it should contribute to the whole ... in this case it takes the viewers attention from the subject and her amazing expression.

 

nice photo that could have been an amazing photo

I like this very much. Idont believe the tilt bothersthe composition at all. I actually like that about it.

 

Good stuff!

Do you have any tight face shots of her? any wider shots showing more environment? interaction with other patients, family members, nursing staff?? Are you doing a project or did you go for just a day? Since you already have your foot in the door, this would be a good project to pursue.

I like the photo. I think the tilt, coupled with her gaze, adds to the photo. They almost compliment each other. Good photo.
