    This is brilliant Basia! You’ve captured the emotion in this man and in the rally as a whole so well. The light is brilliant and the framing is perfect, giving the viewer an insight into his fellow protesters. He may be one voice but you have also captured the voice of the whole which is what makes the difference! Great work!

    wow Basia, this is great !!
    so powerful and very good composition.
    b&w gives it extra character and emphasises the beautiful light.
    ...looks like you’ve got the candid bug now too ! We’ll have to catch up again in the city to do some shots.
