if youre open to some constructive criticism purely from a photography standpoint, the editing isn't the best. it looks like someone just played with some sliders in lightroom or something, it's been massively oversaturated through one method or another and the overexposed background does not balance well with midtones of the rest. the highlights/whites have been made ultra stark for some reason. its just very harsh to look at and doesnt have any real cohesiveness to it.
i know this has been a polarizing post but i think its fair to offer some criticism on the photography side since this IS an art subreddit... the content is meaningful and the intention good but that shouldnt make this untouchable, un-critique-able and sacred... come on guys.

Subject matter aside, this isn't that great.
