great work my friend...congratz

Very shocking capture of the reality. 7/7

Wonderful and so dramatic

 

A very powerful & well done journal shot. I like that he's looking away, the expression on her face and the title. It succeeds wonderfully in telling a story to the viewer

Very good!

and this one

Wonderful! Powerful shot.

A very powerful candid photohraph,Ben. I like the composition and tone.

Can you tell us the story? It's a fine image!

Thx guys for your comments
Janet, They're a family that lives in "Kolong" (under an abandoned train) in West Java.

Living under the abandoned train? Are there any living IN the train?

 

By all means, a strong message for all of us..

Was this shot taken? It seems that the subjects might feel an intrusion. I feel voyeuristic looking on. Not welcome. I like the composition very much.

Thanks Konstantin,
Peter,
Yes at the last moment the mother saw me approaching. While it took away the candid feel in this shot, the uncomfortable look of the mother on the other hand makes me like this photo.
Thanks

For me the glance of the woman, just captures the degree of her awareness and a sense of protection. What is she protecting?

It makes one think...is there a baby with her? is she pregnant? Who is the man? I love an image that makes one ponder the circumstances. I also love one i can study and learn from.

 

 

I enjoy your work.
