Sometimes in street photography, I like to include more of the environment to tell the story. The dark edges in this shot adds a mysterious/secretly filmed kind of feeling to it, at the same time including much details. Women, in my eyes are usually capable and strong. Many of them possess a kind of strength that men do not have. Determination, stubbornness, the refusal to give up, the strength in biting on an issue for years, etc. I know of many women who single handedly raised up their kids without their husbands. This woman reminds me of that feeling.
