Looking and Seeing

Describe in detail what you see in the photo. What do YOU see?

I see a moment of a rainy day and people getting to where they need to go. Also he put it in black and white to make it look more contrast. and Shows the way people had to get around, Even when it rains.

*What do you think is the purpose of the photo or the photographer’s intention? (Is he trying to show the beauty of nature, is he making a statement about society, is it a close up to the point it is abstract, is it about lighting, mood, capturing motion, special effects techniques, etc.) Why did he want to capture “this moment” in particular? He wanted to show just a normal day.

*What is the emphasis of the photo? it raining

 

When you look away and then look back, what catches your eye first?The umbrella

 

*Photography started out in black & white. How does this lack of color impact the image? Would it have a different feel if it were in color?  Do you think you would you prefer it in color? The impact it does to the photo is bringing out retro style. Yes i do think if it was in color it would totally change the way of the picture. It would make you wanna sit inside.I like it black and white.

 

*Is there a mood given off by this photo? If so, what is it? (could be sad, happy, creepy, indifferent…) How does it make you feel? Blue, Gloomy.

What else does the photo reveal? Now that you’ve spent some time looking at it, do you begin to notice other things in the picture? not really

Does the photo hold your attention?  Why? Yes, Its old style.

*Why did you select THIS photo? It “spoke” to you for a reason. I love rainy days
