Deviousness |
The photo is perfectly balanced by the weight of the foreground people who are out of focus, at the bottom of the frame, with the buildings and holiday lights(?) in the top and back of the photo. The soft focus rim-light lit people in the foreground draws the eye further into the frame, searching for an area of distinction, to no avail - as we mainly only see, and feel, the mass of bodies, with no clear element to focus on.
And then, just as I was about to "leave" my viewing, over to center-left my eyes grab on to a single pair of eyes, nose and mouth somewhat in focus, among the hundreds of people in the crowd - who seems to be staring back and connecting with ME!
The exposure, framing and lighting makes this image sparkle in its own "air" of mystery - one feels like they are "there" viewing this photo.
Excellent work.
