I’ve been wanting to write about this photo for a long time now but have always stopped short and wrote about something else. I think this is partly because I couldn’t quite put my finger on why I like it so much, but it’s probably because the shot tells a story and sets a mood like a good photo should. It makes me want to be there in the sea of red people, and I love how the girl is the only one looking at the camera. Great mood, great atmosphere, great capture of the moment. Well done drade.
