Emotions, Sucre Cathedral, Sucre, Bolivia, 2014

Emotional interaction usually leads to interpretive imagery. Such is the case here. This young couple is obviously moved by the religious rituals involved in this mass. The woman seems on the point of tears. She moves as close as she can to the young man, yet averts her eyes. The man seems lost in his own emotional response. He bows his head, supporting it with his hand. He is wearing powerfully decorative athletic clothing, its colors competing with the quiet emotion of the moment. As such, I converted this image to black and white, abstracting the scene to stress its powerful feelings rather than the bold design of the clothing.
