  1. I like the middle picture, but it is confusing as too what is happening

  2. The themes and messages in each of your photos are extremely intriguing, but the subject in the second photo is difficult to see what know what it is. A better source of lighting would be helpful just so we can get a better understanding of such a nicely executed photo

    1. In Chained Mentality I see a lot of dimly lit subjects with lots of dark background.The contrast between the color of the rail and your ties hands is very noticeable and leads me to believe that you are trying to convey a message of good and bad if the contrast was supposed to be so noticeable. The theme of this photo is what I believe to be someone with a mentality that contradicts the mentality that is most commonly accepted or understood, which is why the human subject is dark and the rail, representing the accepted mentality, is why the subject is chained to it, possibly implying that the subject feels "chained" to it in order to be accepted.
