Photography

Dinka Cattle Camp, 2006 Sebastiao Salgado is from Brazil and was born in 1944. He is labeled as a social documentary photographer and photo journalist. This photo of a cattle camp is rich with culture. The rule of thirds used with the cattle horns draws the viewer eye right in. Because this photo is quite dark, it has a very ominous feel. Churchgate Station, Bombay, 1995 This photo of a train station was taken at with a long exposure which gives the image a blurring effect. This helps the viewer to understand that the people are moving fast bustling through the train station. This creates a paradox because the trains are standing still but the are the ones that are moving fast.

Pablo Picasso 1954 Arnold Newman was an American photographer who was born and lived in New York. Newman was especially known for his environmental portraits and some abstract still life photos. This black and white image of Picasso uses a play on shadows to really show the emotion in the photo. There is a high contrast between light and dark is what I enjoy most about the photo. Jackson Pollock, 1949 This photo by Newman is completely different from the one of Picasso. First of all the use of color in the photo changes the vibe completely. Another difference between the two photos is that the one of Picasso I zoomed in, giving it a much more serious feel.
