What makes great photography

Cafe Lemitz, Anders Petersen 1978

My reading - This is part of a series of photographs telling the story of the lives of working class people in Sweden (?). The woman is one of only two in the bar and she stands defiantly aware that she is in an unusual place for a woman. She is tolerated by the male clientele who are also aware of that her presence is unexpected.

Val Williams - the Hamburg bar provided an enclosed space to portray the intimacy of the relationships. More of a family album.
