Odd one out! by annbo

Odd one out!

photo 96
Its so hard if you are a bit different to the other kids, you desperately want to fit in, but they shut you out!....To be different as a child can be a hard, lonely path to tread!.....Be strong.....The time will come when you will be proud to be different!

Was looking at your shots back into March and love the depth and detail especially nature shots.

1) Great photo! 2) Great message! I attended a charity luncheon today (during my lunch break from work) and, standing next to the other girls who were there likely on their own dime, rather than corporate dime, I suddenly felt out of place, like I forgot to bring my fake tan, my botox, my breast implants, my nude 4+inch heels and my party girl dress. Some things never change......

@rockinrobyn Very true!.....But you are real! ; )

Great shot and narrative, too! Even so called "grown up" women want to fit in and be just like everyone else! I just don't understand it, myself! Better to be loved for who you are than to be loved for who you are not.

Very sad! I feel like this sometimes... Great capture of it!

Your thoughts that accompany this photo are quite true:,but many times those people who stand alone today, very often become the Leaders of tomorrow,,,,,,wonderful capture of human nature......

What a great capture and narrative of what is so true. Be yourself and you will be so much happier in your life. Hard to explain to those who are young but they learn as they grow.

I love images that tell a story. This is one of those that you can draw so many conclusions from. Well done. Great emotion.

lovely photo!
posted April 5th, 2012  
Wow, hard message. Well supported by the low camera angle.
posted April 5th, 2012  
It's a good shot of what happens everywhere! I feel (from experience) that being on the outer of the 'group' actually makes you stronger within yourself. You learn to be happy with yourself!
posted April 5th, 2012  
@maggiemae Thanks!....very true, I too was that person.....but you learn to rise above it, & it makes you stronger as an adult!!

This is what street photograph is all about. Capturing a real moment, unstaged. This is raw. This is real. This shows real talent, Ann.

Lovely candid capture!! Hope she wasn't the odd one out for too long!!

You have depicted loneliness and difference so well in this shot.
Only short minded peopleĀ  encourage this type of scene, but it is those type of people who have lonely insecure minds!

I agree with all the others. Amazing catch and tells the story of being left out so well. Hope it was 'just one of those days" for her.

@annbo you pay $20 and it goes to help run the sight and keep us all able to upload big files I am not sure where on the site you go to join I tried to find it on mine but couldn't see it anywhere....maybe as I am already joined? Anyhoo it could be on the you tab?
posted April 9th, 2012  
What a powerful shot with such an important message behind it. If feels so rotten to be the one left behind. Hopefully her time will come soon!
posted April 9th, 2012  
I agree with you that it is so hard to be young and different. And wish that all kids who feel left out could know that your differences really will be appreciated when you grow up.
posted April 10th, 2012
