An image alone has the ability to be worth a thousand words, but paired together with poetry, it expresses much more. Emily Dickinson, an American poet, created true works of art that often had ambiguous meaning. Dickinson’s poetry continuously constructed dominant images that, needless to say, didn’t need illustrations. Emily Dickinson’s Civil War poems specifically, contain descriptions of graphic images that also fit well with the photo taken by American Photographer, Timothy H. O’Sullivan.…

and I will run it from my home there. Though I will be traveling quite a bit to different locations to get the best pictures for different occasions or if a client has a specific location they would like to take the images at. But at my central location I will use it to edit the images for clients and it will also serve as a meeting place to meet clients. As they may want to discuss pricing and locations for the type of shoot they are wanting. My business is a well-rounded photography business.…

Photographers who photograph landscapes must also often “wait for the right light to capture that perfect moment” (shawacademy.com). If the lighting is too bright and harsh, the image can appear washed out, overexposed, and dull and lifeless in color. If the lighting is softer, as often found during the “golden hour,” most colors have more contrast and appear vibrant and alive. The “golden hour” occurs just after sunset or sunrise, when the colors in the sky appear redder and the sun’s lighting…

Visual research” When we worked on photography history Garry Winogrand was one of the photographers that inspired me with my “Street People” assignment. My work is nothing like his but the free expression that I found in his work even though underneath some of his work you can see the different expressins in people this made me relise that you can express anything within a photo. Simon Garnier said: “I was too timid to get close to strangers to get intimate with them and tell their…

Tiashara Armstrong Mr. Davies Comp 101 Having Difference Some photos can be misinterpreted and not understanding. The photos themselves are representations of how people see them. Representation is the description or portrayal of something in a certain way. Certain representations, or misrepresentations, get widely circulated by what we call the dominant discourse. Everyone has used representation to explain how things are in life to them. In the “States” essay, written…

Words. Photography is the ability to freeze time without disturbing life. What is meant by that phrase is that when a photo is taken, that precise moment is forever captured to be revisited at the viewer’s leisure. When a photographer takes an image it is very different than when a friend tells you, “ Lets take a selfie!” Although, both a photographer and one capture that moment in time, a photographer tries to tell a story or a message as to look who I’m with; which with in itself is…

Memory Suicide Taking photographs is a hobby for some people, a career of others, or an absolute disaster for a few. They capture the moments and memories people want to remember and display for time to tell. However, there is always an opposite reaction which, for this, is deleting those photographs. The memories in the mind are extremely difficult to delete unlike the ease of pressing a button on a camera. Erasing the ugly, unfocused, and poor captured photographs from our mind is an…

People say pictures are worth a thousand words, and I would definitely agree. A picture can tell a story without actually saying anything, and when I look at the picture I chose to write my visual analysis on, so many memories and emotions come to mind. At first glance, the picture just looks like an action shot of a volleyball player setting a ball to another volleyball plyer on the court, but when I look closely at, every detail brings back memories and emotions. To most people, the picture I…

‘darkened room.’ It uses a lens and a sequence of mirrors to project an image of the surrounding landscape onto a viewing surface.” (http://www.scopex.co.za/files/Camera-obscura-ML-1207.pdf) “The principle of optics that makes it work was light travels in a straight line and when some of the rays reflected form a bright subject passes through a small hole in thin material they do not scatter but cross and reform as an upside down image on a flat surface held parallel to the hole.”…
