tao 0 Posted July 26, 2005 ... why put it under news/journalism category ? anyway, as for the image itself I don't think the restraints idea is really effective also I find the "stop" word very explicit and unnecessary (would your image speaks by itself) interesting but does not work for me Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted July 27, 2005 Yes!!! Yes!!! excellent Photograph with strong message. well done. bravo. Maybe we have to make a Poster of it, and to put it on all walls for other to see and to STOP Child Abuse!!!! Or maybe you make a kind of circular email message and we send it to other people :) Oy, this LIFE is so cruel, and people are so strange and violent!!! yes, I am with you - We are obliged to STOP CHILD ABUSE!!! Uf.. I am too emotional and responding emotionaly to your photograph.uf.. Thank you, B:l:ana Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted July 28, 2005 I agree entirely with Billiana, the photo is very powerful and has a clear and important message for all. Link to comment
strawberry fields 0 Posted July 29, 2005 Hi Johnny, Very strong image indeed. I applaud you wanting to make a statement about child abuse. I'm a photographer of children and have done much documentary work so I can relate to what you're doing. HOWEVER, I can't help but feel that the child bound in the photo is also being abused....by YOU? Is this child crying because he/she is bound...and uncomfortable? In my opinion a photographer has to really questions his/her motives, and question if he/she is doing harm? Did you stop to think that this child suffered...and will always suffer...as a result of being involved in this photo? Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted September 14, 2005 Very effective image with a message, and I agree with the message. I am actually hoping that since you shot this with the 20D, that it is a digital composite of two separate images. If so, that's a good thing. If, however, it is an original image with the child really wrapped and bound, then I, too, have to question the means used to make the shot. As I said, it's a powerful and original image, and I commend you for it. But if it's a one-shot, I couldn't have/wouldn't have done it, myself. Link to comment
