I am not usually drawn by images that lack in spontanety, even though i do shot such images time after time, as i belive that it spoils the truthfulness of the moment. but then, on the other hand i do also belive in the ability of creating moment as much as catching a moment; like you created it here with much much feel to it and and great sense for affection.
the drama of the emotion springs firmly from those melancholic eyes, towards us- as if telling for a longing of something lacking, through her eyes. the high contrast and the unorthodox composition, disregarding much of what the conventions require, has strongly complemented the complexity of this shot.
