1. The picture shows a motorbike and a child’s trike.2. The point of view of the photo is to show a contrast between a large bike and a small

trike. It also conveys a juxtaposition of adult/ child and difference in colour. When we think of a motorbike we imagine a fast, loud machine ridden by a young man whereas the trike is a gentle, quiet image that we associate with a young child.

My images

In this picture there is a contrast between a building that has been constructed and a natural growing plant.

In this picture I have tried to show the juxtaposition between the softness of the sky against the hardness of the building.

In this picture of Connor, he is putting his mobile phone in the bin. The juxtaposition is the fact that a usable and serviceable item is being discarded with rubbish which is no longer of use.
