In researching Henri Cartier-Bresson, I found his opposition to cropping really cool, and totally understand his point of view. A photo should be what it is and when you can avoid editing, the stronger I think the photo is. I love the black and white. I don't know what it is about black and white, but something about the simplicity of the colors, but also the complexity that the photo can hold because of the content is really, really just cool to me. I'm also very into the street-style photograph, with everyday people doing their everyday things.
To me, this picture captures one overall thing: Pure happiness. The two people, who seem to be in a relationship, just having a good time and being with someone who cares for them and who they care for. And even the person who is jumping is just showing joy and living in the moment.
