Fabrice Gourbilleau   {K:58301} 10/10/2006
This is a superb photo.. I like this loneliness feeling in you shot, with this perpective and the subject at the middle of the road.
Excellent work (7/7)


Robert Kocs   {K:89085} 10/10/2006
Yes, dear Mary I can feel your concept, this is too
deep meaning than other wiever think. Love well
illustrate road to nowhere, 'cause "get tired of the
waiting". She's seating and she doesn't know how and
where go on! Excellent capture with emotions full of
paining feeling and totally despair. Afraid of recognition
and truth. Well, your capture is very expressive and
amazing journey of personal mind about. Absolutely
great work from You as usual. Wonderfully done.

Best wishes dear my friend! 10/10+++
Robert

ps...saved my favourite! ;)

sam khosravifard   {K:17215} 10/15/2006
why did she sit there?was she begger?

well done

Mary Joon,
I've studied the work of a lot of big name Iranian photographers but I must say your work outshines them all. Your entire portfolio is stunning, breathtaking. I love how you capture these small intimate moments on such an epic scale. It's a fascinating juxtaposition. This particular photo is heart wrenching. She's a beautiful girl on a beautiful desert road without a chador. It's a very liberating image. The irony, however, is that she is all alone, isolated from the world, unable to share her experience with the rest of us. This is, I think, the core of the struggle for Iranian women today. Privately, in our thoughts, in our studies, we have progressed so far, but culturally we are stuck. And so I see this, and I see her, and I see all the potential she possesses, and it makes me very very sad.

Don’t ever stop taking photos.

Nikoo


Mohammad Porooshani   {K:20705} 10/18/2006
Another good shot Mary,
I want to take it more easy this time (about the angle and contrast) and back to the concept directly:
This is absolutely different and somehow opposite to the prior in the series "FOREVER- on the road", this time the situation is even worse!
there are so many things which are out of control such as the Divergence in vertical lines, but I want to use them to reveal my main thought to you.
This time, the human, as an object has a different idea about the universe, she looks really exhausted, plus, she is sitting upwind, backside forward to the future, this is not good! this is start of disappointment(if it did not start yet). but the angle of lane want to say, distracting from main target (whatever and how less it would be), made her so!
that's all my thoughts, and I think you took these shots with lot of different reasons,
Wish you bests as always,
Mohammad


sam khosravifard   {K:17215} 10/24/2006

ei baba! ok tell her stand up and go home. maybe she face an accident ha!!


mary karimi   {K:10818} 10/27/2006
mmmm....that famouse Q ;)))
why did she sit there?
mmm..........yes maybe she was a begger..maybe she was a crazy girl who was wait and sit for ever in this wild world.
thanks my dear friend for these unusual comments and questions :P


mary karimi   {K:10818} 10/27/2006
