Photo shoot

 

It was a cold windy morning (the second day of ‘summer’!)  The model is clearly not dressed for the conditions  –  her golden crown offers little protection!  –  but this is a professional shoot and there is a deadline to be met.  After much cajoling she ventures into the very edge of the sea, but I think her posture betrays her feelings.

Just think about it! (16)

 

‘Each photograph embodies a particular way of seeing and showing the world.  There is no such thing as the innocent eye.

People’s knowledge, beliefs, values, and attitudes  –  heavily influenced by their culture  –  are reflected in the photographs they take.’

Terry Barrett

Q.    So why have I chosen this subject?  This viewpoint?   What do I want my image to convey?   What is the point I wish to make?

Just think about it (11)
