Artist's Comments

...is to title this piece what it is:
Bitch.

Not really at all sure why i wont, given what was going on in that last image i posted... =D

I observed this woman (or whatever she is) for probably 5 or 6 minutes before releasing my shutter, and she was scowling the entire time. Her husband and kids were over in line ordering up some corn dogs or something while she just stood there looking down at the world around her. As if she were somehow better then the people walking by as a result of her husbands wealth. Shit like this really pisses me off.
So much of what i photograph is a genuine attempt to find peace with that which disturbs me. A way of seeing beauty in the ugliness of life... from my perspective anyway. Then there are the atrocities. This qualifies as the latter and im not sure there's ever going to be a way for me to find peace with this, nor would there be a point.
The sad/funny part of this was that after i was caught capturing her (which i made no point of hiding) all i could hear was her yelling at her husband for the next several minutes as i slowly walked away... Does it surprise you that she's abusive?

Enjoy!

I don't think that sneer could be removed even by the best of surgeons, and I can't image that a smile has ever even skimmed that face... :disbelief:

This shot is very special....there's nothing to be distracted by in the BG....nothing to shift your glance. You're stuck with looking at her. Stuck.

This woman is old before her time & its probably a self inflicted injury.... certainly a damaged soul:!:
Is your camera still OK? ;) Great shots as always :sun:

Tjat's a wonderful diptyc. The expressions of this woman are sad, aggressive at the same time. And I love your comment

Now this is what street photography is all about. Pure observation, and the face tells a story.

Great framing, awesome (natural) lighting and the textures on the skin, clothes and accessories look fantastic :)

What that thing has the worst qualities associated with every known type of peoples on the planet earth! Its like that scary-ass "woman of tommorrow" picture made from scanning in thousands of random 'ethnic' people and overlaying them to make a bastardized multi-culture icon representative of how scared people are of individuality. Hey "liberals"... Here is your "woman of tomorrow!"

....
I feel bad for her husband. She was probably really pretty when they were married.
