Calme carnavalesque.

I titled this photo "Carnival Calm" because I took it in the middle of a carnival parade. I photographed on-the-fly, in the hustle and bustle. I was surprised to have captured this portrait. The face is serene. And it stands out between two dark masses, the black hair of the person and that of another, who marched before. The hand and the earring attenuate the dark mass in the back, quite by chance. One who discovers the photo can believe that it is a photo posed in a studio. But it isn't the case.
