the dark side of life


I've said before on this blog how I often turn to a silhouette to get an interesting picture from a mundane job. Sometimes ,however , it is necessary to make a silhouette picture for practical reasons rather than creative. This picture is of a young woman whose grandfather had just been convicted of sexually assualting her over a period of time. Obviously a truly horrendous story but the young woman bravely approached the newspaper to tell her story to help others who find themselves in a similar situation. She had waived her automatic right to anonimity put in place for these kind of cases but understandably didn't want to be identified in the picture as she tries to rebuild her life.
