Wandered out of reach, a photo from Ile-de-France, North

Photographer's Note

"Tempted in our minds
Tormented inside lie
Wounded and afraid
Inside my head
Falling through changes

Did you know when you lost
Did you know when I wanted
Did you know what I lost
Do you know what I wanted

Empty in our hearts
Crying out in silence
Wandered out of reach
Too far to speak
Drifting unable

Did you know when you lost
Did you know when I wanted
Did you know what I lost
Do you know what I wanted"

Silence, Portishead

Taken during the LBGT Pride 2010, where lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transsexuals and lot of heterosexuals marching for equality.

bonsoir Fred
je ne comprends pas pourquoi faire une marche pour l'嶲alit�, apr鋊 tout, ne sont-ils pas des 皻res humains comme les autres?Je suis all嶪 plusieurs fois en Thailande, o� ces gens affichent ouvertement leur diff廨ence, m瘱e au travail, et n'ont jamais � supporter la moindre remarque, le moindre regard d廥approbateur des autres Tha鮞andais.Ce peuple est d'une tol廨ance remarquable.Voil� comme tout le monde devrait 皻re!
Beau portrait d'une jeune fille au regatd � la fois triste et determin�.Quelle histoire est la sienne?Pourquoi, pour qui marche t-elle ici?J'aime son visage qui se d彋ache de la foule flout嶪, et le cadrage met bien son expression en valeur.
Amicalement
Pascale

Hi Frederic,

A wonderful use of DOF. It really accentuates your subject. You timing is also spot on - the image is very thought provoking.

Thank you for sharing

Pranil.

Bonjour again Fred

A great portrait of a face in a crowd. I see determination in the eyes, but also the strength of a group, of belonging to a group.

I also like the link-up to the song lyrics here.

People are people.

Benny
