"Hit Me with Your Best Shot"
Photography Assignment
Photograph of a Person
Context: Shot by Cameron Spencer/Getty Images. Usain Bolt in the Men's 100m semi-final in the 2016 Rio Olympics.
Content: Bolt is smiling back at his competitors, having complete confidence in crossing the finish line first.
Form: The photo is eye-catching because of it's motion. It is easy for the eye to follow the movement of the runners. What makes it an exceptional photo is the fact that the photographer was able to capture a surreal moment amidst all the competitive chaos of the race.
Photograph of a Place
Context: Shot by Imaginechina. Rainbow Mountains in the Zhangye National Park of Gansu, China.
Content: The Rainbow Mountains are truly one of a kind, existing only in one place on the entire planet. The stairs leading up to the platform are inviting you to climb, while the empty platform is in need of being occupied. This picture calls out to the adventurer, promising new feelings of hope and awe.
Form: This photo is remarkable because of its unity and variation. The intricate lines in the ridges of the mountains bring together the vibrant warm colors of the overall summits.
Wild Shot
Context: Shot by Sam Abell/National Geographic. Titled "Children and Pony." The Clondalkin District of Dublin, Ireland in 2009.
Content: This is my my all-time favorite photo. National Geographic captions it as: "He's quiet and easy to catch," says Lee Johnson, at left, of his pony Gypsy. Lee tends his charge in a stable behind his home in the Clondalkin district of Dublin, a metropolis where cars still dodge horse-drawn carts hauling vegetables to market." I adore the unspoken story it tells. The Irish children are latching onto their horse while intensively watching something in the distance. The uncertainty gives the mind the freedom to create an ending of its own.
Form: The starring element of the photo is its subjects. They make the photo look effortless and real. They are more concerned with their world than the one of the camera, which in this age is a rarity and novel of wonderment.
