In the series of the boy with the dog (for example "D-Herra and Rocky") there seems to be a clear emotional and physical connection between the two. But here, as you did in another photo I like ("Auringon Lapset") we have figures in proximity yet though they are physically close they are emotionally distant or at least indifferent to one another. I find it interesting that you show us that simply putting people into the same frame does not establish a link between people (or pets), which is actually quite a profound statement if extrapolated. It is cause for pondering as to, then, what does establish that relationship . . .

Here they are both playing, and yet they seem very much in their own worlds, thinking their own thoughts. The harsh light adds further to a sense of isolation, something that seems to come up frequently in your work (to my eyes).

I came to the conclusion (perhaps influenced by the LA tag) that you were quite influenced by cinematography. Then I read about you and I felt smug! I can't quite put my finger on it, but there is something cinematic in the way you see your shots that is quite interesting, as if each shot is somehow in the middle of a story that just came from somewhere and is traveling elsewhere, and you were there with a camera just at that moment (for example the two of the boy in the stadium). Anyway, I have enjoyed looking through your portfolio and admire what you've put together.
