Shadow Girl
5/15/05

To me, this photo speaks volumes. I think more than anything
this is an artistic expression of my feeligs as a child.
When I was young, I felt very isolated because of my deafness.

The darkness, the shadow from the girl, and the girl doing the
sign "Hug" shows that I wanted to be loved and accepted.

Canon PowerShot G5
1/10s f/2.2 at 8.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Sorry Julie Ann - this is Linda, lindarocks, I'm at Heathrow airport and for some reason the terminal I'm using keeps logging me out of my account!

Thank you for your kind comments! I originally had her against the wall but realized it was more powerful if I simply moved her away from the wall a little bit, hence the shadow. I think this one is one of my best works to date.

Touches the heart. Conveys a very meaningful message.

Powerful is right. This is very emotional. A stellar piece.
