Another “magic” image. No wasted space here. Everything is essential in the composition. The child running gives this image a sense of a dream like in a Fellini’s movie.

A superb job of looking for moments and color away from the obvious.

I find the tension in this photograph very interesting. Their tense facial expressions are magnified even more by the tight and off-kilter framing.

This wonderful image tells us a lot about our society today. The use of fill flash with ambient light creates an interesting color pallete and complements its futuristic mood.
