Social Issues: Blind eyes

This photo shows 4 different individuals their faces all hidden. A girl on the bottom right corner holding herself as if to shield herself from an unseen force. A girl on the left side of the photo hidden, a jacket covers her body and a hood covers her face. A couple the female looking down her hair covering her face, the male holding her against a misty gray wall.

ITS WHAT YOU DONT SEE! In todays society there are many things that are hidden. There are things we do not see, because we can not see them. There are also things we do not see, because we choose not to see them. Abuse, a subject that is sometimes lightly discussed can be unintentionally ignored. In my photo I asked myself the question "if you could see their faces would you be able to identify their pain?" " Would we have seen them better?"

I like your statement, but your levels and edges feel scrappy. Your statement is bold, and your image should be too. Also, you need to start uploading your photos LARGE on your blog... they are very small.
