Kelly's Image
This is a mid shot image of two women. The two women are set against the sky and it is a low angle shot. the result is that the two women are looking down at the viewer. They both seem slightly shaded in contrast with the bright blue sky that they are set against. They both are wearing white tank tops. Also, each one's hair looks as if it's dyed pink or red. They are embracing each other and this invites a sense of intimacy that they are sharing with the viewer. The woman on the right has a sly, secretive smile. The woman on the left has a beaming smile on her face.
When I came across this image, I immediately started to smile. This picture evokes a sense of happiness in me that the two women seem to be exuding. The image communicates a sense of sensuality, closeness and love. They seem as if they want to share their happiness with the people who will be viewing the photo (and perhaps the photographer). They are not shy about their affection with each other.
Comments
My first impression of this image was that they were lovers. In looking deeper into the whole picture I realized that they also could be very close friends. I think the affection in this image is wonderful. It just feels very sunny!

I loved this image! I think that they are either very good friends or they are together; either way, they look so happy. I almost see a "dare you" look in one of the girl's eyes. It seems almost as if they are flaunting their happiness and closeness. I know that every once in a while I see girls like this and I wish I could be that happy. Excellent image choice! :)
