Great Black and White photos part 3

1. These pictures from theses photographers caught my eyes by the way they are set up and taken. I have never seen waves captured so well.




2. In this picture of waves, I see the clouds colliding with the ocean. I see the waves crashing against each other. I see the horizon so far.  I can smell the salt rising into the air. I can smell the bird poop on my shoulder. I can smell the sea weed under my feet. I hear the birds above me chirping I can hear the ocean below me swooshing. I taste the salt water thats splashing in my face from the waves. I can feel the wind threw my hair & over my skin.

Filling The Frame

This picture filled the frame, everybody is in a corner & the whole picture is taken up by an object. In this photo I think the kids are messing around with some fog and having fun. Maybe someone brought some of the ice from the ice cream man truck. It looks like something from a scary Halloween house.

Action and Emotion

I really see emotions with everyone holding hands & praying around a flag. Maybe this photo was taken on 9/11. The kids in this picture may have lost a parents or family member in 9/11 so they are showing respect for those who lost their lives.

The Story

 

I think the story of this picture is a science experiment with water. Maybe the girls are supposed to drop something inside of the cup, but instead like threw it. The splashing of the water is showing the preasure of the object hitting the bottom of the cup making all the water rise up & splash.
