Photojournalism
Task 2
• I think this photo is an abstract photo or it is and example of photojournalism because it is capturing the Rolling Stones in action on the Edd Sullivan show. It is an example of a mid shot. This photo effects me because I grew up listening to this sort of music.
I think that this image is an example of a long shot but also an example of sport photography. I picked this photo because this was when Danny Way jumped the great wall of china on a skateboard, opening the eyes of skater world wide making his quote “nothings too gnarly” seem possible. This photo was taken by DC one of Danny Ways sponsors.
This photo of Dancer Jacques D'Amboise playing with his children near his home, mid shot, this is an example of abstract because its not the type of photo that people take everyday. I chose this photo because my dad used to do this to my brother and I when we were younger.
This picture of the View of the Earth as seen by the Apollo 17 crew traveling toward the moon, Dec. 7, 1972 is a long shot and is an example of photojournalism because it proves that people went to the moon and marks a part of history.
Triple Exposure NYC, 1995; from Journal Square. This photo is a long shot and is an example of landscape. This photo was taken by George Forss and I chose this photo because I love cities at night when they are all lit up.
Task three• George Forss was born in 1941 and grew up in an
orphanage in new York because his parents were drunks so they couldn’t look after him. He tort himself photography in 1964, after this he started selling $5 prints outside the Metropolitan Museum of Art in new York before being discovered by Life magazine photographer David Duncan in 1980. he now works with life magazine as a photographer. This is one of his famous photographs of the twin towers before 9/11
