The eyes, a gritty despair comes through here Txules... The feet, bare earth tactile beneath them, twigs & leaves for a fire may be, the wall & the light brushing the silhouette...

Lost in her *world* of time, as tho' standing still & the world outside is the one speeding by...
Love the composition & very edgy tones, adds that extra ooomph & completes the visual Txules...
Excellent work with the iphone Dear Sir...

A different mood in B&W... This time the image wants me to use my imagination to see what surrounds her... The dark depths give of an intimacy, her skin polished by time...
This has translated well... Both the colour & B&W have a different *feel* Txules... So neither is better Dear Sir...

The earthiness of the colour, both dress & facial tones here, speaks of the harsh life & conditions that the Saharaui endure daily Txules... Yet there is much strength too...
You capture the essence of what you see always Dear Sir...

Depending how one views this Txules, may be sense of hopelessness, floating adrift on the sea of life as the shifting sands give no safe, secure anchorage...
or...
Wishful thinking & optimism of *it just might grab, so I'll try & hold on anyway*...
Txules, again a work that causes one to question what they *see*...
Nice work Dear Sir...:)

Now see Rog... first thing I also thought of was B & G... Very much a challenge, a mind thing of *OK, what am I seeing or witnessing*...
Could easily be the start of a storyline, let the imagination run with the visual... :)
Thumbs up from here, even if you still keep tweeking LOL...

Love the *trance like* feel to this Rog... The perspective is voyeurish & gives an intimacy... All soft & not quite there... the gentleman left of centre has the look of *I see you* & appears to be looking straight down the lens... Also reminds me of a neg...:)
Really enjoying these...

The first thing that came to mind was *shame*...
Heads bowed, a sadness.. not of heart, but of wrong deed... The composition from above gives a sense of authority from high... The crowd below duly chastised... The vignette creates a *ring leaders* grouping...
Just what I see Txules...

An enigma indeed...:) So many scenarios could be applied besides just flotsem Txules...
Love the contrast & the vignette brings the subject total focus for the observer... A very tactile image for both eye & brain...

Luis interpretation is exactly how this visual feels Txules... I sat & just looked, before reading others comments, to see what I could *feel*...
The sensation I had was also of her world, spinning... Arantxa being at the centre of a vortex... Dare say it is the wind & vast emptiness of the scene adding this sensation plus the magic of your eye... The subtleness of colour & tones brings a melancholy to it also...
Excellent Txules...

ALL the different angles, turnings/finials, roof coverings etc certainly make for an interesting shot Daniel... The colours are vibrant & full of life, may be that's how the ghosts like it...:)
