reaction on the composition and manipulation
After reading and looking through the slides, learn of two methods, gid, and golden proportions. Not know what golden portions are to me. It looked like a giant seashell the picture reference on using the grid lines made a scene on how practical taking a photo is. The history behind photos really amazes the first early image all the way in 1839 blows my mind today how the evolution of talking phots now is simply pulling out your phone and take a picture no limit on how bright or how dark the scene is. An image has diverse meanings; one of the slides on john Wilkes him getting execution did not know who he was before, but as the picture got more prominent, making clues on what was going on.
My favorite slide would be on the image of the tendons and the snake river by Ansel Adams really love the landscape of trees, mountains. Wonder when he took this photo really early in the morning or evening. The extensive image 99 cents by Andreas Gursky looks really closely like the book where waldo sees every detail; he must have a costly camera to take that shot really enjoyed the presentation.
To clarify Gursky's work, Xiomara, he is not creating him images with a single camera shot, rather he is stitching his images together out of various perspectives. This is the main relevance of his work: that, in his view, his images require manipulation in order to make his subjects feel more real (in his case, overwhelming or saturated). While I get a sense that many aspects of the presentation really stuck with you and opened up your thinking, it sometimes a little difficult to understand your main ideas. In future posts, remember to proofread so that you can fix and accidental auto-corrections or run-on sentences that are in your writing so that the reader gets a better sense for your opinions.
