  4. maybe the way the on how each of the subjects are positioned and also the way their face expression is in the photos. In the images the girls on the photo look sad so maybe that’s why the background blends in well with their emotions. In most of the images most of the subjects in the are sad looking. Well I think that the photographer wanted a different face expression in each of the photo that he or she took.
