4. Artist: Henri Cartier-Bresson
• French photographer/filmmaker whose humane spontaneous
photography helped to establish photojournalism as an art form
Rule of Thirds
• Breaking down an image into thirds both horizontally and vertically so
you have 9 parts to achieve good composition
• The horizon line should be 1/3 up or 1/3 down
• The subject matter should be in the vertical portions

5. William Eggleston
• Focused on the everyday subjects, framing them to emulate the family snap shot.
However, he juxtaposed it by using an expensive printing technique
• This combination was inspired, with the unsophisticated subject subverting the
sophisticated aesthetic
How I will incorporate his work:
• I like Eggleston’s use of red in his pictures. In my triptych, I will use this colour as a
possible recurring motif. I may also use the complimentary colour green in my
images

9. Final Image: Heaven
I chose this image because it used red similar to Egglestion's work. I have also enhanced the green to
compliment the red

10. Final Image: Normal
• I chise this image because it uses the rule of thirds

11. Final Image: Hell
• I chose this image because it incorporates the colour red and the rule
of thirds
