I like the way Francesca uses simplistic imagery, and she creates a dark feeling to her works the draws you in. I really like the use of the subject matter in this work, I like the way the white stands out against the against the grey and black, it draws the eye in, and although white is usually seen as a pure and clean colour, but in this photo is almost poses a a question, like why is the figure in the middle of trees covered in a sheet, what is she doing there? It creates an eerie atmosphere that I really the the look of.

I choose this photo as an example of motion bur, as I would like to use this technique in my own work, I like the feeling of movement and the feeling it gives you, and the way you can't tell who the person is or what they look like.
