Critique by ~TheFinalAlice Sep 18, 2010, 10:12:13 AM

What I love most about this picture is the woman's outfit. It feels very out of place compared to what people today like, but is very compelling. The combined colors of everyone else is stunning. It suits the story of Cassandra. The connection between her and modern-day prophets in this picture is really accurate.

It kind of makes you wonder about the modern world. People say that this woman is crazy, but at the same time they could have a religion, too. What keeps their faith from being just as bizzare or true? If a messiah came down from Heaven, what would it take to prove his/her/its authenticity? Maybe some people shun her because they are insecure about their own ideals. Mean as it sounds, I don't think I'd believe her depending on the situation.

What do you think?

Truly a strong woman with great self confidence; a wonderful example for all. Great shot.

Eery shot! Mesmerizing.

This photo is really touching. It seems to portray the feeling of being cast out from the crowd. It's very emotional, and I think you did a great job! I love your work.

And your perspective.
