She looks at her husband from another axis. There is no acknowledged contact between subject and us, the viewers. Our sight lines do not coincide. We are put in the position of eavesdropper.’ This quote from ‘Train your Gaze’ book, sums up how are experience as viewer is affected just by the direction the subject is looking. It makes the viewer ask so many more questions about the image, it becomes a ‘spectacle, about looking’. We begin to wonder more things, like is she posing for the camera or for the person who is out of frame. The person sees things that we can’t and we begin to imagine them . So through the simple direction of her eyes, it has opened up so much more in the photo.
