Conversation, Cave Creek, Arizona, 2015

Between rounds of the bull riding competition, riders and crews freely conversed with spectators. By shooting over the shoulder of the man in the western hat, I try to make viewers into listeners by focusing on the intense expression of the speaker.

Thanks for seeing the value of the abstraction here, Tim. I deliberate partially obscure the face of the woman with the man's hat. The two people thereby blend together, and the conversation seems more intense.

I love how much one can get from a half of a face.
