This is a photograph by Bryan Sheffield, my favorite photographer. I was looking through photographs that he's taken recently and came across this one, not liking it at first. The reason I didn't initially like this photograph was because of the composition-until I looked at it again. The reason I like it now is because of the composition. At first I thought the bottom was just a waste of space and it didn't make sense to me but at a second glance I saw Sheffield's foot. His presence in this photograph changed my perspective! The photograph because more emotional because of this detail and made me feel a little bit different. The scale of light in this photograph is also something I like, especially after our study of pulling film, which this reminds me of (even if it's digital).


This photograph is by Ryan Flynn. I found his website a few years back because we have the same last name and continued to follow his photography. The photographer shoots weddings, skateboarding, portraits...such variety. My favorite thing about this photographer is that no matter what he's shooting, he gives a different feeling to the viewer. This photograph struck me because the man seems to have his legs put together by whatever this contraption is which for some reason reminded me of Jesus and then looking at the wood posts in the background I couldn't deny this feeling. A+


This is a photograph from a blog titled Zoriah (I'm not certain if that's the photographers name) which hosts mostly war photography. This photograph is a 9/11 tribute. Need I really say any more?
