The career scenes are shot in high-contrast graininess, the early ones in a pellucid sunlight that Charles would soon lose sight of.

...constructed images of street life, or what the photographer dubbed the "food for my camera." The ordinary soon became the fantastic, as Alvarez Bravo drew reverie from his subjects. He captured the pensive young girl on a balcony in The Daydream, a picture of longing, with the ray of sunlight brushing her shoulder as if singling her out.
