Oh, Eoleon Elcano sure knows how to pluck the heartstrings. This is a picture full of pathos. The person who abandoned the dog did not even leave a dish of water. I’m sure even pixel dogs get thirsty. Eoleon included a link to Annie Lennox’s song “Why?” [Click here]

“Done” is another picture that affects the viewer emotionally. The way she holds her head reveals a feeling of despair and exhaustion. The picture is not monochromatic though it feels that way because it is partially desaturated. The primary color is the red of the apples. Apples are such a symbolic fruit where in the West, it evokes temptation and the fall of humanity.
“it's easier to exceed the borders when you're not alone” takes us a completely new direction. It’s exhilarating and full of energy, optimism, and joy. It’s also full of color. Depth of field adds to the feeling of movement, giving it more energy. She chose “From dusk to dawn” [click here] by Zayn with Sia to go with this picture.
Eoleon Elcano is a great photographer. Her landscapes are unique and exciting, but I was most taken by the way she expresses emotion. You cannot browse her photostream without feeling an emotional connection.
