[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Photo from the kids around our house. I found a lot of them strike these fighting poses, confronting me and, ultimately, the audience who will see them. They want to be seen as fighters, as strong, still alive.

The cropping on this photo is a bit off, and I am not 100% sure what to do. It is possible that the cut off foot implies a shortening space (increasing the effect of a confrontation), or it may just need some further cropping, bringing the torso of the fighter into more of the visual space. Let me know your thoughts.

Nice soft-looking portrait here. The tones really suits the subject as well. Regards, Doug

Great picture! I like this kind of photography. Taken in poor areas but showing it in diferent light.
