    This is so unusual and thought provoking. We rarely see the disabled in our photographs. But the sparseness is so appealing. I'm in two minds about the inclusion of the sofa. More of the sofa with perhaps someone on it ? I'm not too sure.
    Nevertheless it's such a fresh and strong image and well done for taking it.

    Don,

    A lovely shot,

    Couple of things, the rooms seems tilted to the right so needs a little levelling and I think cropping the sofa would be a good idea.

    Fascinating sculptures and I like the way that you didn't put Joyce symmetrical with the sculptures and the fact the colours are muted.

    As Tom said thought provoking.

    It was a grab shot in very poor light. I was using the camera wide open at about 1/8 of a second.
