I LOVE this photo. I was sure it would be on the front page with a 7+ score! It is such a striking photo! A gallery piece!

Such a beautiful photo! Love the the lighting and the poof of powder? I'm sure if I go listen to the song it will make better sense to me. But I love how you always throw deep meaning into your photos. So good to see a challenge entry from you again. Congrats on the top 20!

Svetlana...I really like how your photos make me stop and look and think about them. You are a true artist.

You have captured life here; in fact, this photo is itself life (not reflecting life, but being life itself). And like life, everyone wants to understand it, we break it down, so that we can articulate something about the individual elements, the light, the darkness, the shadows, the powder, the almost hint of smile on the girl . . . we want to be able to say how they fit, because trying to understand the whole is beyond us. We follow the signs, looking for answers as to what it all means. But how does it all fit? Like life, how does that death from cancer fit? How does that accident fit? How does that war fit? How does that genocide fit? How does that newborn fit? How does that dance or that song fit? This image has certainly made me think, Svetlana. Thank you.

So I was looking back at the MS photo competition to see what kind of photos beat mine, and there this was... I saw it and knew I recognized it from somewhere! Congrats, Svetlana!

Good lighting. Works well in B/W. Don't quite see how it fits the challenge theme, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
