no words were necessary
her face boldly vocal
the displeasure evident
the emotions experienced
nestle behind her squinted eyes
and crease deep lines on her face
quick, change your tune
lest she opens her mouth
to release her disgust
and tread lightly for a bit…
Wow, this photo is amazing! I’m struck by the emotion in her face, and the caption captures it so perfectly. It’s almost like you can feel the tension in the air. It really makes me wonder how someone can convey so much without saying a single word. What do you think is the power behind an image like this? Can it really communicate more than words?

Words will either affirm or make us think twice about judging facial expressions.
