Photo in the Style of Diane Arbus - Receiving
This photo was taken on the streets of Seattle, Washington. We were giving a jug of milk to a homeless man when I captured this image. Although I do not know this man well, I can guess that he doesn't smile like he does in this photo very often. There is a story behind this image, and in a way, it is an environmental portrait. It makes me happy that I made someone smile in the course of my work. This image also has good composition because of the value, which emphasizes the emotion, happiness, in this image. This image has balance because it is asymmetrical, and the subject of this portrait is emphasized.
