So for this assignment I chose Ed Feingersh. I was going through the Family of Man book and I came across two different photos that spoke a lot to me. They are by two different photographers but both images mean something to me that I can’t really describe. Either way they show people and family and there is some type of life that is shown in each image. So over the weekend I went bowling and decided that there would be nothing but friends and families, old people young people, and ones having a good time so this was a perfect opportunity.
I also included this photo because when I went through The Family of Man” this one also stood out to me.
For this photo I tried to make it like the first one to show what was happening. Instead of a hall playing music it is the crowd who are bowling together. They are unaware of my camera and they are only focused within each of their own lanes.
This image is like the second one. It is people sitting I chairs consumed by themselves while everyone around them is doing something else. When I took this photo I was sitting across and I had my camera in my lap so they didn’t know that it was being taken. I think when I went into this assignment I didn’t want anyone to know I was taking their photos because I think it allowed for a more natural faces and reactions.
This one is a mother and her three kids. There are other people in it trying to distract what is happening but in a busy place there is always going to be other people. However when you focus on the mother and the kids you can see that the four of them aren’t really concerned with what is going on around them. Just that the little boy was talking while the girls were very interested in what he was saying.
I just added this one in also. I think got somewhere it goes with the events of the day. It is a bit more broken up than the other ones but I think it works as well.
