The Balcony


Place d'Armes - beautiful ironwork, faded shutters, the silhouette of a cigarette inside - and young eyes glued to the world beyond the balcony.

    What a fascinating capture this photograph is. I wonder what is it the little one has in his hand pressed to his lips?

    This photo can win you awards, I am sure of that.

  2. Excellent photograph. You framed it perfectly. There are so many interesting textures, colors, and the silhouette of the cigarette is the icing on the cake. I especially love the ironwork. Bravo, Jilly!

  4. Personally I think the child detracts from the mystery of the scene. who is the shadowy figure with the cigarette?

  5. Damn that's a good photograph. The cigarette shadow is wonderful. From this point of view, we could imagine that the ironwork blocks the child's vision like a mask, making him or her even more isolated.
