Focal point.



This photo has been taken by Vee speers and I love it! it's a really simple photo without really any background for you to be distracted by. The first thing I am drawn to is her face, I think Vee speers made her face really pale to be completely different to the deep red, so the viewer is firstly drawn to the girls face and then the red dress, I think this is a good example of Focal point.

Composition.



I think this photo is a very good example of good use of composition, there's many different things happening in the object, the first thing that I see when I look at the picture is the woman in white followed by the red and white striped target board with the female attached to that, if I take a second look I start to notice the little things in the background which are pretty significant, e.g the lampost above the target starts to draw your attention away from the main objects and starts the background, this is just my opinion. There are alot of things happening in this photo, and I think it has been pieced together really well.

Lighting.



This is a fantastic photograph taken by Perou, I think the use of lighting is great, when I look at the photograph, it's very bright and it stands out among alot of other photo's in comparison. I like the way he has the background near enough the same colour as the male's eyes, and it then makes them stand out. The first thing I see when looking at the photo is his eyes as they are embedding among his skin which is obviously a much paler colour than the intense blue, I think this photo is very simple yet interesting at the same time.

Depth of field.






















This is my example of depth of field, this is a photo by John hedgecoe and I think it is very interesting. You can't really tell how far the wall is from the first thing you see in the image, which is the hands, as it's just plain grey with nothing really to it. The first thing I am drawn to is his hands as it's the closest thing to us in the image, followed by his face which is in the centre oh his hands, I also like this picture because it's simple, there's not much really going on and it's black and white.

Photo analysis.

Factual:  This photo has been photographed by Perou, it is also a portrait photo. Perou is the photography of the hit series 'Dirty sexy things', he is also becoming very famous.


Context: I think the use of lighting in this photo is brilliant, the light from the sun above the water, really takes part in capturing the way her body has been positioned.


Technical: I think it's safe to state that this is an underwater image, I think it's been taken on a digital underwater camera because it's a pretty perfect photograph in the respect everything appears to be still, with no movement in the woman or the water.


Aesthetic: I think this is a beautiful photo, the woman looks almost perfect, she looks graceful, gentle and free, I like many different aspects of this photo e.g, the way the beams from the light seperate and multiply in the water, giving the woman angel type backgrounds to make her body stand out, I also think this is a very simple photo, from the way there is nothing else but a naked woman and the sea.
