This image shows Mother Mary talking to her Mother St.Anne. I love this image because as an religious kid, this photograph demonstrates my love for my religion. The quality I like best about this photo is how I edited it. I loved the way I kept the background the same yet I lighten up Mary and St.Anne. The one and only thing I would do differently would be to experiment with the contrast and the brightness a little more or even try this photo in black and white. I had no trouble at all taking…
may think I actually hiked into a remote area. The element of lighting and color is also important to analyze.The image photographed is bright implying that it was taken in the middle of the day. All of the surrounding natural life is luscious and green. These conditions make it seem as if it is very warm out and it is the middle of summer. Choice of clothing also helps interpret the image.

Sally Mann use of glass plate handled on the spot bring the image nearly immediate flaws that result from hand coating the collodion emulsion on each piece of glass- streaks, drips, uneven surface, and edges. She shoots under the sun overexpose her image however she tries to take perfect picture at the same time, she embraces the accidents that actually make the picture faultless and spontaneous.…
audience with a visual image. By having a visual image with the poem, it becomes easier to analyze art and poetry together because the reader can use both works to explore the author’s purpose. In 1842 Tennyson wrote the “Lady of Shalott,” and in 1888 John Waterhouse painted a picture illustrating Tennyson’s character, the Lady of Shalott. Although Tennyson and Waterhouse use different mediums, they both illustrate the position of a nineteenth century woman and Waterhouse uses images from the…
