Ruckenfigur

This weeks' theme is an unusual one, but great to get the mind (and camera!) whirring. "Ruckenfigur" is described as: a picture in which a figure is portrayed with their back to the viewer allowing the viewer to vicariously experience their persective and emotional state" This lady was walking slowly with her old dog and enjoying the Spring sunshine. Could you get that from looking at this shot? I have posted another on my project today too!
Great response to the prompt,

@365anne what an interesting theme. I have really enjoyed all the photos posted this week but your explanation of the process was the best. I definitely get a sense of her slow meanderings with her dog from your photo

Thanks for the explanation. I think a lot of my street scenes have the backs of people, but I didn't realise there was a technical term for it!

Very nice for the theme. I can definitely identify with her pov and the emotional state I would have being there. Thanks for this theme.

Well done image and explanation. I feel as if I'm right behind her and there in the scene. Glad you found this to be an interesting theme.
