image description: a black and white photograph of a thin pale skinned topless woman. she has her arms folded across her chest, just beneath her breasts. her hair has just been cut into a chin-length bob with bangs, and the trimmings of her hair are scattered across her cheeks, upper lip, and breasts. she is looking to away from the camera, with her eyes cast slightly downward. she has dark eyeshadow on her eyelids. her face is relatively expressionless, if not a bit sad.

i used to have this on my wall when i lived in the market. i always wanted to know what the photographer was thinking before he took this photo and what the people in the photo did after the flash went off. it is so cinematic.
