Ana said 533 days ago:
strong image
CraigMartin said 533 days ago:
This is a painful shot. I think the off-set composition and the shift in focus/dof towards the left of her face accentuates the sense of life slipping away. Gripping.
ArneG said 533 days ago:
Stunning / Graphic / Gritty / Twisted and Scary
Bravo
King said 533 days ago:
This is sad to look at, of course. I'm not a fan of eccentric cropping without some good reason (although some folks like it fine).
reality said 533 days ago:
Thanks EmilyHorne, Ana, CraigMartin, ArneG and King - for your comments.
As far as my lower scores in Technique & Quality it was captured through a lensbaby lens.

Graphic!
dcreighton said 533 days ago:
This image has lots of impact. This image says the struggle for survival to me more then "the end" but that is a very subjective feeling for me and since I deal with emergency crews and such photographically a lot I'm jaded a bit in that view. I could easily see how you the creator, and others, would see "The End" in it. Hope it gets featured because it really grabs me.
dcreighton said 533 days ago:
BTW- I like the selective focus and technique on this image. A good use of the LensBaby which is often misused IMHO.

I don't know how you have the gall to take a picture in this situation. Same as people that take photos during funerals, etc. I think it's disrespectful or something, and I don't have the gall to do it. Personal feelings aside - effective image. I hope this really wasn't this young womans end. She looks too young!

This is real.
gall?
gall1 /gɔl/
–noun
1. impudence; effrontery.
2. bile, esp. that of an animal.
3. something bitter or severe.
4. bitterness of spirit; rancor.

Restricted airways make the flow of oxygen to the brain halt - pass out and go directly to the hospital.
The landscaper finds out she has adult asthma.
Good news - it is manageable.
No dying occurred during the making of this photo.
Just a real life experience from my world - my most important person - documented by way of my camera.
Thankful it happened because now the condition can be treated and bad outcomes...avoided!
post script; i don't like funerals.
