Another type: "both of use" should read "both of us."

Once again, both of use similar juxtapositions while shooting this scene together. You draw a stronger contrast in age differences, pairing the older man with the baby at close range. The face of the baby dominates your image, stressing its vulnerability in the process. In my own image of this scene, I also paired an adult with the baby (http://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/110780869 ) but moved back a bit to create a three way relationship between the baby, a woman, and her shadow. I also abstracted my image by removing all color. I tried to bring the age of the building itself into what becomes a mysterious relationship.
