Candid Portrait (Mercy Girls)

This picture was of two Mercy girls dissecting a pig in a biology class. I really like this picture because I asked them to take a picture but instead of looking at the camera, they just continued to go about their business rather than turning toward the camera. I like the negative space in this picture, along with the emphasis on the two girls working diligently. There is an indirect line from their eyes to their experiment, which gives off a line in the picture. There is space in the background; you can feel the distance of the room as it goes back (another line) and leading to the other students doing their experiment. The two students are the emphasis of this picture emphasizing them which makes this a candid portrait.
