1 Minute 1 Image KennadeeDutson


The photographer captures a moment in time expressed through a black and white photograph. A child looks forward into the distance as wind rushes through her hair and fluffs up her dress. The upward angle at which this photo was taken makes the child look brave, and the hair frozen in time signifies a breath of freedom.  Healthy tree leaves are peeking into the corner of the photograph which implies this little girl is jumping or standing on something high in the air. There are bright highlights and very dark shadows that indicate the sun was high in the sky, which leaves a bold impression on the image. Strong leaves and short sleeves reveal the time of year when the weather is warm and there’s a gentle summer breeze. As the child gazes forward, we are left to wonder what she could be looking at and what will happen next.
