I really appreciate this picture because it shows an important landmark. The photographer Jacob Riglin captured this moment of Sam Kolder. Riglin managed to take a straight image of the horizon. I also enjoy the filters he used because he managed to keep warm and cool tones present on the sun and the buildings.
In this picture the focal point is the elephant, which is also in the center. Chris Poplawki captures a rare moment for Americans because unlike in Asia we do not usually encounter elephants. I am a fan of contrast and I think he used it really well.
This picture was taken by Takashi Yasui. This is the streets of Tokyo, Japan. He captures the busy non-stop street, in a bird's eye view. The contrast that the black and white create amplify the people wearing color.
Overall I am really appealed to this photography taken by Jacob Riglin. This was a life or death picture. An extreme sport Riglin and Kolder do. He still managed to keep a focal point of the buildings with Kolder there.
Photographer Bryan Rodner Carr, portrays a young model in a monochromic style. He intended for this portrait to be soft and natural. One can tell that he did not go crazy with the sharpness. He added warmer tones so it can be more appealing to the audience's eyes.
This was shot during the Great Depression by Dorothea Lange. Black and White photography strips away the color from the subject and leaves the emotion. In this picture we can see the many emotions and expressions in the peoples faces.
This portrait was taken by Steve MCcurry. Here he sparks the colors shown on the young lady's face, neck, and head. This close-up is at eye-level. His photography appeals to me because I love when colors stand out. The contrast matches her lips and eyes.
