scale–invariant feature transform (SIFT) andmean seamless cloning (MVSC), an image to stitching algorithm ispresent, to improve the quality of the
panoramic stitchingimage. Using SIFT algorithm to extract between the benchmarkimages (await matched image) and follow–up of the feature points,
identifying locations and directions, using 128 dimensional vectors to describe the features point. SIFT algorithm to provide benchmark images and
follow–up images to determine the source of cloning domain and target the cloning domain of the MVSC. Using the mean value coordinates to achieve
the pixel to interpolate from the source of cloning domain to the target cloning domain. Finally, using MVSC algorithm to achieve the two images of
stitching. Experiment results shows this method with regard to image rotation, perspective changes and image scaling to have a good stitching results,
stitching image is complete information, to the quality of the image is high.

My Ethnography
I got my first camera at the age of eight; it was a blue Olympic digital camera. I used my camera whenever I could. Ever since I was little I noticed
the little things in life. The main thing I want to do with my life is to be a world known photographer. I want to travel the world with my camera and
show the world how beautiful earth is. I started collecting old fashion cameras at the age of twelve. I started collecting cameras because I liked the
different styles and technology they came up with. When I was fifteen, I got a Nikon camera for my birthday from my grandparents. I captured images
every day, I still use it, I use it for portraits and landscapes. I currently have eight different styles of cameras, including my favorite Fujifilm Polaroid. I
always have a device on me that I can take pictures on. My Polaroid and Nikon are always in my car, and my phone is always with me.
I love taking photos whenever I can. At family events, they usually find me behind the lens of a camera. My favorite type of image is ones that are

The Rabbits-Deconstruction of Visual Essay
John Marsden's and Shaun Tan's epic picture book, "The Rabbits", is an allegorical fable about colonisation, told from the perspective of the natives.
An unseen narrator describes the coming of 'rabbits' in the most minimal detail, an encounter that is at first friendly and curious, but later darkens as it
becomes apparent that the visitors are actually invaders. My chosen image (above), embodies the overall style of the book which is deliberately sparse
and strange. Both text and image conveys an overall sense of bewilderment and anxiety as native numbat–like creatures witness the environmental
devastation under the wheels of a strange new culture, represented by the rabbits. The image projects a painting of a striking sunset and... Show more

This metaphorically suggests that the rabbits have already begun to construct their homes, and now nobody can stop them. Their forceful invasion into
the native indigenous landscape is further emphasised by the dead lizard featured in the foreground, which has been brutally squashed with seemingly
no remorse. Furthermore, the buildings in the background are entirely formed by jigsaw pieces. Thus Tan presents us with a visual allegory of the
rabbit society as manipulative and un–relentless nature. The small strip across the top of the visual, presents us with an alternate world that is natural
and heaven–like where numbat–like creatures are suspended upon tree branches. The gaze of the numbat–like creatures leads us to the quote, "They
didn't live in trees like we did". Through the inclusion of text Tan portrays that the numbat–like creatures don't understand the rabbits. This quote does
not show any strong emotions, but instead the blatant tone bestows a 'clueless' feeling to us, the responders. This section is very small in contrast to
the rest of the image showing the rabbits. This symbolically represents the unprecedented manner in which the rabbits came and quickly "made their
own houses". At observing the picture more closely, we can conclude that where the numbat–like creatures are sitting, the sky is lighter compared to
where the rabbits are placed; implying that the lighter colour is the time the numbat–like creatures were familiar

Evidence In Mandel's Evidence
The set of archive images that constitute Sultan and Mandel's Evidence, were the culmination of two years research within an array of government
agencies, educational institutions and corporations: from the Aeronutronic Ford Corporation, Newport Beach to the Veterans Administration Hospital,
Palo Alto. The artists were granted access to millions of photographs within these spaces and therein embarked on a critical process of appropriation. As
Sultan states, "Mike and I, through the act of selection, became authors"(BAMPFA, 2012). Throughout the work we are focused on the notion of the
photograph as index: the trace of a footprint on wet paving slabs, a passport photo next to a hand print in sand. Despite this very specific reference the

Or, put another way, how one can use the language and the structure of an object to subvert its function. As Mandel states it is that, "duet between a
depicted document and a world that is out of control" (BAMPFA, 2012). The photographs seem to have a transparent nature that is illustrative, but in
the context of the artwork, devoid of the original information structure they once had, they are weird and fascinating. We are directed to experiments, to
physical journeys into the substrata of spaces, into tunnels, down holes, into freezing basements, inside machines. The focus of an object within some
of the photographs may be intended for post–production cropping. However objects are only half isolated within the confines of the image through the
creation of makeshift studio spaces. In this context participants are absorbed within the confines of their activity, and by implication a system of

Childhood Cancer Life: My Day With Aubrey
SWA 2
Photo essays are collections of photographs used to present an argument, express ideas and evoke emotion from the viewer. The difference between
this and a photoblog is that photo essays are sequenced together to tell a story over a period of time. "The genre is often used to persuade viewers to
sympathize with a point of view or to take a specific action" (pg. 79). This shows that although photo essays tell stories, the genre itself has its' own
purpose. "Most photo essayists do not provide much detail in the text of their essays" (pg.80). Some essayists let the details of their photos do the
talking. "The introductory images, which function like a written essay's introduction, need to establish the subject matter and further the purpose ...

Baldrick's Foundation; Alison Sutton. She spent a day with an honored child of St. Baldrick's Aubrey Castro. Aubrey is a 4 year old girl whose
artwork raised over $20,000 for childhood cancer research. She has been battling acute lymphoblastic leukemia, since she was two and a half years old.
This essay contains fifteen photos; all in order from the beginning of Suttons day with Aubrey to the end of the day. The purpose was to show not
only what a day in Aubrey's life is like, but to show what children with cancer have to go through on a daily basis. Sutton used this to present an
argument to raise the funding of cancer research in children so that they can live normal happy lives without having to go through this process every
day. The audience is contributors of the St. Baldrick's Foundation and people who want to learn more about how cancer effects a child's life.
Sutton uses pathos to appeal to readers, by showing photos of Aubrey. Anything involving children will evoke some kind of emotion from the reader.

There are only seven houses here. Good thing that no one no longer lives here with the exception of him. Others left one by one, after learning that the
place was too unsafe and unguarded. Well, he didn't mind though, as this place gives him warmth and love from his deceased parents.
After walking a certain distance he saw the cemented road and muttered "How come they burned those rotten woods and collected those bricks and
cements while this road that has even have more cement than my house was not excavated."
He was really angry at those pricks for burning down the last memento of his deceased parents.
Before he could come up any speculation he heard a "Beep!" it's a beep coming from a car.
He saw a Mitsubishi Eclipse moving slow and honking at him. The car window opened and a beauty come out and said "Hey, I'm lost in this place

Photographs Capture Time And Create Meaning
Photographs capture time and create meaning. Mark Klett's "Under the Dark Cloth", is a simple, yet compelling piece of art which captures his
experience in Monument Valley, Arizona on May 27th, 1989. The perspective of the photograph is strategic in allowing the viewers to see from Klett's
point of view. This angle places the viewer in the first person, connecting them directly to the image. Images of landscapes are often engrossing, Klett's
piece does this on two planes.
In the text, Visual Methodologies, author, Gillian Rose uses semiotics as a way to make sense of an image. She defines semiotics as the study of
signs and their use or interpretation, or, "how images make meaning" (pg. 75). Under close inspection of Mark Klett's "Under ... Show more content on

Another question could be looked at through the lens of "positional communication". "Who is positioned as superior and who inferior?" (pg. 82). The
photographer makes the audience feel as if they are a part of the image, giving the audience a connection to the subject of the photograph. This allows
power within the image to be equally distributed and shared between human and nature.
The objects within the image, such as the watch, camera, and dark cloth connote time, preservation, and reflection. Klett's use of signs give his photo
the purpose it needs to remain captivating. Within Klett's photo, icons, indexes, and symbols are all presented.
The icon most prevalent in the image is the upside down image of Monument Valley. This iconic image represents that specific rock structure in the
valley. This image is also a synecdochal sign, it is a part of this rocky range, representing the national park as a whole.
The two indexes that stand out immediately are the camera and the dark cloth. When you see a camera– you immediately think of documentation or
memories. When we think of something under the dark cloth or in a dark space we think of referees reviewing a play or the process of developing a
photograph. When someone is under the dark cloth, it is a personal, capturing moment. This sign is a moment of silence and critical reflection.
The symbols which are presented in the photograph include the camera, watch, and the style of the photograph.

Gustre Dore Reflection
On Tuesday, July 11, 2017, I made a trip to the Denver Art Museum. I found a painting by Gustave Dore, a French painter from Paris, France. The
piece was, The Family of Street Acrobats: the Injured Child painted in 1873. After studying this piece of art in person I noticed many different elements
and characteristics in the actual painting. These are not seen in the photographed image of the painting that is on the Denver Art Museum Online.
There are many visual elements that are taken away from a painting when it is made available in an online collections website. When I saw The
Family of Street Acrobats: the Injured Child I immediately went up to it and I could see the texture of the paint, the line and the blobs on the
mothers dress and the long lines of the back ground. The paint was raised, which you cannot observe in the online picture. The picture online was
obviously edited. The color and light are changed significantly through the editing. It makes the painting look very light and you are able to see more
detail without having to look at it for long. By making the painting brighter it took away from the original colors of the paint. The father is too bright.
This change seems to alter the mood and energy that the painting is projecting. The size of the painting is misrepresented in the editing of it. When
comparing the two you can see that the online image was cropped. This takes away the space at the very top of the painting. This is significant

Single Ethnographic Research
Today, anyone can use a camera to capture a photo with a single click in a single second. However; this type of advanced camera was nonexistent
during the renaissance when photographers were using camera obscuras to project inverted images of the things that were outside the of the obscura. It
wasn't until the 19th century that the development of the chemical needed to capture an actual image became available. Even though people were now
able to photograph, the lengthy process that it took to register a single image made photography nearly impossible. For instance, Joseph NicГ©phore
NiГ©pce took more than 6 hours to capture the first photographs ever taken.
During the 19th century, there were several technological improvements that made photography a more convenient task. Some of these improvements
included the daguerreotype process invented in 1839 by photographer Louis Daguerre. This invention allowed photographers to capture images with
shorter exposure to light thus, creating longer lasting photographs. A few years later, a man by the name of William Henry Fox Talbot invented the
calotype process which allowed several copies of an image to be produced using a negative paper image. The two most significant technological ...

A Pixel shift method allows for high resolution imaging, and by specifying the measurement point on a high–resolution image, the measurement is
taken at an increased accuracy. This along–side the automatic edge detection function, reduces measurement discrepancies between users. Along with
the ability to make accurate measurements quickly, the VHX–6000 allows for clean and contamination analysis in line with ISO–16232 Standards .
The sample surface image is divided into multiple regions and these regions are analysed individually, which allows for large areas to be contamination
analysed. If using a high–resolution microscope lens with a large depth of field, highly precise measurements of samples can be taken down to 1пЃm.
This allows for calculations such as porosity areas, volume fraction of defects etc. If a sample surface has height variations a fully focused image can
be obtained instantaneously by bringing together images taken over a range of focal planes. This focal position data can then be used to produce a
three–dimensional model. The VHX–6000 can create a three–dimensional image, by using a depth from defocus method by calculating height and
analysing extremely small changes in texture. Even within areas of low contrast or under and over saturated pixels can be accurately calculated unlike

Photorealism In Manet's A Bar At The Folies-Bergere
Photorealism is a term that characterizes the artists whose work depends heavily on photographs and mixes together the real and the unreal. For
example, Manet's A Bar at the Folies–BergГЁre utilizes photorealism to depict a scene from modern Parisian life: a young barmaid stands behind the
bar of a bustling night–club, confronting the viewer with a worn–out, emotionless expression and seemingly awaiting her patron's order or request. The
painting plays with our sense of reality by showing a strange man and the misaligned reflections of the barmaid and the champagne bottles in a mirror.
Likewise, in Picture for Women, Jeff Wall emulates the internal structure of Manet's painting and incorporates elements such as the light bulbs and and
poles to give the image spatial depth. This photograph shows a reflection in the mirror of a sparse studio room split into three panels with a woman on
the left, a camera framed by a window in the center, and a man walking on the right. Both images utilize reflection to breach the limits of the naked
eye's perspective and evoke a sense of mystery and ambiguity. This paper will argue that in Picture for Women and Bar at the Folies

Wall and Manet utilize female protagonists and the motif of the mirror to examine spectatorship and movement in still art and challenge our traditional

Henry Peach Robinson : The King Of Photographic Picture...
Henry Peach Robinson Henry Peach Robinson, born on July 9th, 1830, was a British photographer and prominent author on photography. Known as
"the King of Photographic Picture Making," he began his life's work as a painter but would become one of the most influential photographers of the
late 19th century. He was a prolific advocate for photography as an art form and is well known for his role in "pictorialism," which, according to
Encyclopedia Britannica, is "an approach to photography that emphasizes beauty of subject matter, tonality, and composition rather than the
documentation of reality." After finishing school at the age of 13, Robinson began an apprenticeship for a bookseller/ printer. During this time he
studied art and even ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Robinson was one of the first photographers to setup a staged photo–shoot. He was known to create outdoor scenes in the studio where he could control
the elements as well as the model. His preferred models were members of high society or paid actors rather than the unsophisticated peasants he
was depicting because he felt that the actual peasants were "dull and awkward" and didn't fit in his picture perfect settings. He would pose his
models to create his ideal scene within the genre. Since Robinson's goal was to create stills that resembled paintings, he took no issue with
combining elements that were "real" with those that were staged. The effect he was trying to accomplish was known as the "pictorial effect," a
subject that he delves into deeply in his book, Pictorial Effect in Photography: Being Hints on Composition and Chiaroscuro for Photographers,
published in 1869. In his book, Robinson states, "any dodge, trick and conjuration of any kind is open to the photographer's use. It is his imperative
duty to avoid the mean, the base and the ugly, and to aim to elevate his subject... and to correct the unpicturesque. a great deal can be done and very
beautiful pictures made, by a mixture of the real and the artificial in a picture." As a pictorialist, Robinson was of the belief that the photograph should
conjure feeling or a particular mood. " 'Art Photography' needed to emulate the paintings of everyday life in such a way to etch it in time and remove

absolutely loved it. The second photo was titled The Coffee Shop. Photo is a black and white print taken in Italy 2010. It is of a group of men (I think)

of everyday life.
To contemplate what is going on in this photograph I think it is left up to the viewer to find for themselves what the meaning is behind the
photograph does this make crewdson's work not as deep because there is no hidden message or meaning in his work I don't believe it should be just
on those criteria what took me to this image in the first place was the mystery where the narrative to this image is open to interpretation were the
photograph is not showing what has happened before or after it is left up to the viewer's imagination to find the answer. The capacity of this
photograph is not to tell you anything at all the image hovers around reality and fiction and the image remains open ended.
Gregory Crewdson works in two distinct ways to create his photographs. On one hand, he works on location in real neighborhoods and townships. On
the other hand, the artist works on the soundstage inventing his world from scratch. Before the photographic location productions start, Crewdson

Yanagi Soetsu defines crafts as "things made to be used by people in daily life" that have a "beauty born of use" (Soetsu). At first glance, this

How a viewer might perceive a picture might even contradict as to what the photographer wanted to say. This fact is explained by Roland Barthes,
where he challenged the common sense idea that if the photographer is not there to explain the photograph, we only have resources i.e. a photograph to
interpret what he wanted to say. While taking a picture sometimes even photographers are not sure about their intentions with the picture they want to
take, or even if they are, their expectations might not match with the results. The results might be completely different and convey a different meaning
altogether. A photographer's vision gets restricted by the little hole through which he sees. While framing a picture, the photographer is restricted with
the frame. He also has to intersect two quite distinct procedures, i.e. how the light falls on the object and the formation of image through optical device.
All these works in his head but the result might be completely different and more dramatic then what the photographer thought of or it might even be

Discuss the notion of the found image in the work of John Stezaker. What particular temporal qualities do you think the found image adds to these

Photography has always been a way of documenting time, a memory sealed into an image and held there forever. This is a brief documentation of a
place or a person capsuled in time, with the history and the memory intertwined with the image. However, as the photographs age and the decades

memory has faded away? John Stezaker became fascinated with these long forgotten images from before his time, and felt drawn into recreating
memories of people in the images and giving them a new lease of life. A brief run through of Stezaker's career and a study of his art will perhaps give
us a clearer view of what drew him to these images in particular and why he felt the need to create new from old.
Before we begin any analysis we have to question, how can a photograph represent a memory or a moment in time? According to the Oxford English
Dictionary memory is defined as, "The faculty by which the mind stores and remembers information". The photograph is a way of recording a
physical recollection of a person, place or event. Nowadays, with a vast range of cheap and easy photo opportunities it is quite clear to say that the
printed image is becoming a very interchangeable object. As soon as we begin

Oppression Of Truth In Patterson's Barriers To Seeing
A world without photography seems merely impossible to the modern age humans. Photography is seen throughout our everyday lives, from the
television, to smartphones, and on our computers, it seems impossible to avoid it. But why would we want to? Photography is a vision, a memory, a
moment captured in time that makes it possible for humans to share these moments with others. But more than times than not, these moments, visions,
photographs are altered, manipulated, and distorted to influence, and change the audience's view. By analyzing the many methods the photographer's
ways of manipulating, altering, and the distortion of the truth of their works, one can conclude that not everything shown is accurate and often

With this, they are allowed to show what they wish often abusing and directing the audience in the wrong direction by not providing the whole picture
of the world around us. In Dave Eggers', Women Waiting to Take aPhotograph, he observes a woman photographer who decides to show the irony of a
market named "Go–Getters" that lies in a poor underdeveloped community. Eggers observes and comments, "She has her window closed, but will open
it when the right person appears, and then shoot that person under the sign that says Go–Getters." He also comments, "[She] has a good eye for the
inequities and injustices of life, for hypocrisy and the exploitation of the underclass." This comment adds to the idea that photographers hide the
self–evident truths of what they are really capturing. In Barriers to Seeing by Freeman Patterson, he alludes that, "We develop a tunnel vision ,which
gives us a clear view of the rut ahead of us, but prevents us from seeing the world around us." This barrier does prevent not only the photographer but

Film, La Jetee As A Reference Point For My Discussion Essay
Can a pictorial narrative be formed purely through the use of images? It is a question many have sought to answer, and one that is becoming
increasingly relevant as our literary concepts evolve to keep pace with developments in modern technologies. I have chosen to use the cinГ©–roman
designed by Bruce Mau from Chris Marker's 1962 science–fiction film La JetГ©e as a reference point for my discussion. The film is constructed
almost entirely of still–images, shot through a Pentax camera. Involving the "future destruction of Paris," the film follows a prisoner haunted by the
image of a woman from his childhood, sent through time by his controllers (Lupton 2005, 87). The cinГ©–roman presents the film's still–images in a
graphic novel format, with English and French subtitles positioning the film's voice–over into text on the page. Ultimately, I will attempt to argue that
images can be used to create a purely pictorial narrative, in reference to the theories of visual culture expressed by Barthes, Burgin, Berger and Baetens,
among others. It is important to note that the cinГ©–roman exists independently from its predecessor: "the French cinГ©–roman is a novel or film
scenario designed to read not necessarily in conjunction with the film upon which it is based" (Santoro 1996, 37). As such, while I will direct some
attention to the discussion of the tension between the cinГ©–roman's and its cinematic predecessor, I have chosen to focus my deeper discussion on

We Are A Camera, By Nick Paumgarten
Although a memory may deteriorate over the span of years or even decades, a photograph will last a lifetime. Images are more than an object to
have for safe keeping. In his article, "We Are A Camera," Nick Paumgarten discusses the uprising of the popular recording device known as the
GoPro. This device is used to record events and experiences from different perspectives, whether that is from underwater or zip lining through a forest
in a first–person view. Moreover, videos and photography allow people to capture images to reminisce about past experiences, to share these
moments with others, and even remember those whom you have lost. There are countless debates about how distracting cell phones and other
electronic devices can be however, they can still be used in positive ways, such as capturing images. Images are a way of recalling events or
memories. Certainly, with these images a person would depict a picture far more vividly than what they could have conjured up by simply trying to
remember the moment. After going through a great experience, people tend to want to reflect and rejoice at what they had done or gone through.
The most memorable moment of my past would have to be my seventh birthday party. It was a small surprise in the middle of a park in Fort
Lauderdale on a scorching hot day. I recall playing soccer on the grassy plains, receiving gifts and the abundance of laughter in the air. The only

The Use Of Panorama Through History And How It Has Developed
Panoramic images have been an idea that has dated back to the beginning of human history, through forms like the Boa tapestry and other paintings
that captured the ideas of extended view and openness that a normal image can't do. However more recently this idea has been used creatively to form
360 otherworldly images. In this project I plan on exploring the use of panorama through history and how it has developed to form more interesting
ideas. When you look at a panoramic picture you get a sense of extension and a sense that your view has opened up and through these senses I'd like to
understand how the idea of a panoramic picture came about and what potential it has on moving forward in the future. Old panorama has been achieved

Understanding the context of why the artist chose to tell this story through panorama could be down to convenience. It is possible that the
tapestry was created because there simply wasn't enough room in a regular image space however the possibility that the choice has a more artistic
meaning is present and will later inspire similar ideas. Observing the meaning and ideologies behind the tapestry is difficult due to the sheer size of
it. Although we can gather a general vibe from different areas. The artist has used very dull colours throughout the picture, although they would
have been dimmed down over time the mood they create has a very dark and medieval tone. Interestingly the faces on the soldiers are extremely
lacking in detail, and not so much so that you could blame it on poor artistic talent but it almost seems intentional because there is no way the artist
would have been able to recall the looks of each and every soldier on the battlefield however this may have been an artistic point to show the
insignificance of the soldiers as their lives were wasted fighting when all that mattered was whether William or Harold II were to die. This is an
interesting point that sums up the tapestry as a whole, it displays a 70meter long wall which metaphorically relates to the length of the battle known to

Yasumasa Morimura
The artwork Blinded by the Light (1991) by Yasumasa Morimura is an appropriation of Pieter Bruegel the Elder's The Blind Leading the Blind (1568)
(Israel, 2005). Morimura has appropriated paintings and photographs throughout the ages, though The Blind Leading the Blind is the earliest dated
work that Morimura has appropriated (Marsh, Watts, & Maylon, 1999). Morimura super–imposes a composite self–portrait on top of Bruegel's painting,
successfully changing the meaning of the piece. The different historical contexts of the two pieces in conjunction with appropriation allow the
accumulation of ideas to present two separate meanings pertinent to the ideals of the times. Morimura's simultaneous use of the historical and religious
aspects of The ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Post–modernism was "a reaction to the assumed certainty of scientific, or objective, efforts to explain reality" (Public Broadcasting Service, n.d.). It
can be suggested that reality is something that we each create and possess individually. Morimura took a work from the late 1500's and changed it to fit
his personal intentions and interpretations. It embodies post–modernist devices, such as stereotyping, the crossing of genre, and contemporary culture
(Felluga, n.d.). By using these devices, Morimura transforms a work that could only seem applicable to the venerable and religious, to a work that
is easily recognized and applied by the general public. He transforms the work from Bruegel's reality to his own, in endeavour to resolve it. It is
thought that appropriation is unoriginal, or possess aspects of plagiarism and negligence. However, the use of appropriation to give old works new
meaning is justified in the sense that it allows the build–up and corroboration of ideas, supporting the growth and change of value systems as times and

Analysis Of Regarding The Pain Of Others By Susan Sontag
In Regarding the Pain of Others, Susan Sontag argues that the way people and the media utilizes photographs does not do full justice in representing
misfortunes in the world. This can be seen through the emphasis she puts on how everything surrounding the picture effects how the picture is
perceived. "It is always the image that someone chose; to photograph is to frame, and to frame is to exclude", in other words the photo is not an entity
of its own, but influenced by the photographer and excluding context (Sontag 46). The viewer of the image needs to be fully aware of the context and
background of an image to be able to comprehend troubles in the world.

career in 1999, and by 2002 he had gotten the job as cinematographer for a national–geographic trek across the Chang Tang Plateau in Tibet. By 2006
he was photographing the first American expedition to ski Everest. In the years since he has gone on to create many more movies including Sundance
award winning Meru, and photograph for National Geographic, even getting a few of his photos on the cover of the magazine.
Chin grew up on the flatlands of Minnesota, in Mankato. He always enjoyed the small ski hill near his house, but it wasn't until he was twelve that he
really went to the mountains. His parents took him to Glacier National Park and he was hooked:"I was 12 when I had my first epiphany about the
mountains. I went on a family vacation to Glacier National Park. The beauty of the West and the mountains of Glacier National Park really blew my

"Some say they see poetry in my paintings; I see only science."
–Georges Seurat
Before the development of digital cameras even well known artists used pixels to create some of todays famous works of art. The relation between
digital pixels and the artistic style of pointillism is almost self explanatory, both use small dots of colour to create larger pieces of art. Thepainting style
of pointillism can be explained by using dots of pure colour close together in a pattern to create a full image using optical blending. For example by
painting a red and blue dot close together and having the viewer farther away their eyes will blend the two separate colours as violet rather than the
individual red and blue. Pointillism, otherwise known as neo–impressionism ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

a combination of many colours; blue, green, white, yellow, and orange. In the landscape behind the pine tree the viewer can see a cloudy sky,
mountains, and two boats sailing on the sea. Everything in the background is painted in lighter colours to bring the illusion of depth onto the canvas,

Analysis of Architecture in Photography
I have decided to look at architecture for my next genre in photography. I have chosen architecture as it is very different to fashion photography and
looks at totally different materials and includes different characteristics. In the early years of photography, few if any photographers were specialists in
any area other than commercial portraiture, which was the main area in which a living could be made from the new medium. Early photographers did
fairly often photograph buildings, often working from the window of a convenient room rather than at street level.

Even thought the photo only consists of blue, it is made up of lots of different shades of blue.
The lights on the building and around it stand out because they are a bright colour. I think the way the sea blue colour merges into the deep blue/black
colour of the background works really well.
The photograph doesn't really have a story to it, as there isn't much going on, it doesn't have energy or any movement to it at all. However it could
easily be a scene used in a film, such as an establishing shot. The photo has a certain peaceful feel to it. It is soothing to look at; this is because it is a
calm, quiet setting– you can almost feel your presence there, staring into the beautiful view. I think the reason that the photo has such a positive,
relaxing feel to it is down to the fact that the composition of the photo reminds you of a deep blue sea or a clear black sky. The photo has strong
verticals and horizontal, which emphasise a static feel and the negative space.
The picture has a large depth of field with the two buildings the centre point of it. Only natural lighting is used for this photo, therefore getting the
exact time of day right would have been essential.
The photo also has some negative points to it. The angle at which the photograph is taken from makes the picture looks really flat and plain, For

Pictorialism: The Late 19th And Early 20th Centuries

Critical Analysis Paper In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Pictorialism was the dominating photographic style that spread internationally. There is
no specific definition for this word, but it generally refers to a style where the focus more on the photographers intent and emotion rather than as a
means of documentation. Characteristics of a pictorial photograph includes lack of clear focus, visible manipulations on the surface, and different color
tones. Perhaps the biggest point that defines pictorialism is the photographer's intent to draw out the emotion and feeling of the viewer.

–1572. The portrait is 37 5/8 by 29 ВЅ inches and is an oil on

After studying the portrait for a considerable amount of time I began to see possible sadness or self–doubt in the young mans face that betrays his

Portrait of a Young Man was painted during the Mannerism period. It was done by Bronzino in Italy c.1540. The portrait is 37 5/8 by 29 ВЅ inches,

"The picture may discort; but there I always a presumption that something exists, or did exist which is like what's in the picture." (Sontag). In a
photograph that Garry Winogrand capture, there is an adult couple each holding a baby monkey in their arms. This scene was taken in the streets
of a busy city sidewalk. Not only is it a strange scene but it would have certainly been hard to believe if you did not see it with your own eyes.
However, with the photograph that Garry Winogrand took, there is evidence that that scene actually existed. Even though there is probably an
immensely high chance that the same scene would happen again, the photograph will always prove that the small event did exist. Another example
would be when Garry Winogrand took a photograph of people laying on a grass field while there are black balloon covering the sky. It is an event
that will be hard to duplicate. The balloon was captivating and Garry Winogrand made sure to prove to everyone that it did exist. It was indeed a

Analyzing Van Gogh's Wheatfield With Crows
In this piece, John Berger discusses the implications of reproducing images and the changes this brings to the meaning and value of the work. As art
became readily reproduced, people began to alter paintings, photographs, and other medium's into new pieces with new meanings. These altered forms
of art, often provide insight or commentary into context and meaning of the original pieces. One alteration that Berger mentions, is the addition of text
to an image, for example Wheatfield with Crows by Van Gogh. Looking at thepainting alone, it appears to be a serene landscape with birds soaring
across the skies. Alone, nothing would cause you to question the face value of this piece, however when the words "This is the last picture that Van
Gogh painted before he killed himself." are printed beneath it, it changes the whole experience of viewing the image. Suddenly you notice that Van
Gogh's short, aggressive brushstrokes give this painting a tumultuous almost violent feeling. The pathway that leads through the wheat field has no
destination, it goes nowhere. We see that the crows roam the skies in a disorganized fashion, it is as if nothing in this painting has a purpose or a plan,
everything simply is in chaos. We might ask why crows? Could those birds (so often associated with death and mortality) flying towards us in the
painting, signify Van Gogh's feeling that the crows, and what they represent, were coming for him?

  • 3. My Ethnography I got my first camera at the age of eight; it was a blue Olympic digital camera. I used my camera whenever I could. Ever since I was little I noticed the little things in life. The main thing I want to do with my life is to be a world known photographer. I want to travel the world with my camera and show the world how beautiful earth is. I started collecting old fashion cameras at the age of twelve. I started collecting cameras because I liked the different styles and technology they came up with. When I was fifteen, I got a Nikon camera for my birthday from my grandparents. I captured images every day, I still use it, I use it for portraits and landscapes. I currently have eight different styles of cameras, including my favorite Fujifilm Polaroid. I always have a device on me that I can take pictures on. My Polaroid and Nikon are always in my car, and my phone is always with me. I love taking photos whenever I can. At family events, they usually find me behind the lens of a camera. My favorite type of image is ones that are unexpected they're not posed and the subject doesn't know that they're being photographed I believe it looks more realistic than ...

  • 4. The Rabbits-Deconstruction of Visual Essay John Marsden's and Shaun Tan's epic picture book, "The Rabbits", is an allegorical fable about colonisation, told from the perspective of the natives. An unseen narrator describes the coming of 'rabbits' in the most minimal detail, an encounter that is at first friendly and curious, but later darkens as it becomes apparent that the visitors are actually invaders. My chosen image (above), embodies the overall style of the book which is deliberately sparse and strange. Both text and image conveys an overall sense of bewilderment and anxiety as native numbat–like creatures witness the environmental devastation under the wheels of a strange new culture, represented by the rabbits. The image projects a painting of a striking sunset and... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This metaphorically suggests that the rabbits have already begun to construct their homes, and now nobody can stop them. Their forceful invasion into the native indigenous landscape is further emphasised by the dead lizard featured in the foreground, which has been brutally squashed with seemingly no remorse. Furthermore, the buildings in the background are entirely formed by jigsaw pieces. Thus Tan presents us with a visual allegory of the rabbit society as manipulative and un–relentless nature. The small strip across the top of the visual, presents us with an alternate world that is natural and heaven–like where numbat–like creatures are suspended upon tree branches. The gaze of the numbat–like creatures leads us to the quote, "They didn't live in trees like we did". Through the inclusion of text Tan portrays that the numbat–like creatures don't understand the rabbits. This quote does not show any strong emotions, but instead the blatant tone bestows a 'clueless' feeling to us, the responders. This section is very small in contrast to the rest of the image showing the rabbits. This symbolically represents the unprecedented manner in which the rabbits came and quickly "made their own houses". At observing the picture more closely, we can conclude that where the numbat–like creatures are sitting, the sky is lighter compared to where the rabbits are placed; implying that the lighter colour is the time the numbat–like creatures were familiar ...

  • 5. Evidence In Mandel's Evidence The set of archive images that constitute Sultan and Mandel's Evidence, were the culmination of two years research within an array of government agencies, educational institutions and corporations: from the Aeronutronic Ford Corporation, Newport Beach to the Veterans Administration Hospital, Palo Alto. The artists were granted access to millions of photographs within these spaces and therein embarked on a critical process of appropriation. As Sultan states, "Mike and I, through the act of selection, became authors"(BAMPFA, 2012). Throughout the work we are focused on the notion of the photograph as index: the trace of a footprint on wet paving slabs, a passport photo next to a hand print in sand. Despite this very specific reference the status of the photograph, as an empiric document, is continually questioned, not least in the title of the work. The concept of ...

As Mandel states it is that, "duet between a depicted document and a world that is out of control" (BAMPFA, 2012). The photographs seem to have a transparent nature that is illustrative, but in the context of the artwork, devoid of the original information structure they once had, they are weird and fascinating. We are directed to experiments, to physical journeys into the substrata of spaces, into tunnels, down holes, into freezing basements, inside machines. The focus of an object within some of the photographs may be intended for post–production cropping. However objects are only half isolated within the confines of the image through the creation of makeshift studio spaces. In this context participants are absorbed within the confines of their activity, and by implication a system of meaning that we, as the audience, are not privy ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 6. Childhood Cancer Life: My Day With Aubrey SWA 2 Photo essays are collections of photographs used to present an argument, express ideas and evoke emotion from the viewer. The difference between this and a photoblog is that photo essays are sequenced together to tell a story over a period of time. "The genre is often used to persuade viewers to sympathize with a point of view or to take a specific action" (pg. 79). This shows that although photo essays tell stories, the genre itself has its' own purpose. "Most photo essayists do not provide much detail in the text of their essays" (pg.80). Some essayists let the details of their photos do the talking. "The introductory images, which function like a written essay's introduction, need to establish the subject matter and further the purpose ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Baldrick's Foundation; Alison Sutton. She spent a day with an honored child of St. Baldrick's Aubrey Castro. Aubrey is a 4 year old girl whose artwork raised over $20,000 for childhood cancer research. She has been battling acute lymphoblastic leukemia, since she was two and a half years old. This essay contains fifteen photos; all in order from the beginning of Suttons day with Aubrey to the end of the day. The purpose was to show not only what a day in Aubrey's life is like, but to show what children with cancer have to go through on a daily basis. Sutton used this to present an argument to raise the funding of cancer research in children so that they can live normal happy lives without having to go through this process every day. The audience is contributors of the St. Baldrick's Foundation and people who want to learn more about how cancer effects a child's life. Sutton uses pathos to appeal to readers, by showing photos of Aubrey. Anything involving children will evoke some kind of emotion from the reader. It's hard to watch people go through cancer, but it is even harder to watch a child go through it. However, seeing that Aubrey doesn't let it affect her happiness is very heartwarming and takes some of the sadness away from the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Good thing that no one no longer lives here with the exception of him. Others left one by one, after learning that the place was too unsafe and unguarded. Well, he didn't mind though, as this place gives him warmth and love from his deceased parents. After walking a certain distance he saw the cemented road and muttered "How come they burned those rotten woods and collected those bricks and cements while this road that has even have more cement than my house was not excavated." He was really angry at those pricks for burning down the last memento of his deceased parents. Before he could come up any speculation he heard a "Beep!" it's a beep coming from a car. He saw a Mitsubishi Eclipse moving slow and honking at him. The car window opened and a beauty come out and said "Hey, I'm lost in this place and I'm not too sure if I'm going the right way, can you tell me where's Y'raunaja City?

I think I can make her my first ever girlfriend! Those curves, hair and scent... waaah !!! I'm in luck!" Before he could answer, the girl turned, scared and said "I'm sorry for disturbing you, sir!" and she hit the pedal and ran without even looking back.

  • 10. Photographs Capture Time And Create Meaning Photographs capture time and create meaning. Mark Klett's "Under the Dark Cloth", is a simple, yet compelling piece of art which captures his experience in Monument Valley, Arizona on May 27th, 1989. The perspective of the photograph is strategic in allowing the viewers to see from Klett's point of view. This angle places the viewer in the first person, connecting them directly to the image. Images of landscapes are often engrossing, Klett's piece does this on two planes. In the text, Visual Methodologies, author, Gillian Rose uses semiotics as a way to make sense of an image. She defines semiotics as the study of signs and their use or interpretation, or, "how images make meaning" (pg. 75). Under close inspection of Mark Klett's "Under ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Another question could be looked at through the lens of "positional communication". "Who is positioned as superior and who inferior?" (pg. 82). The photographer makes the audience feel as if they are a part of the image, giving the audience a connection to the subject of the photograph. This allows power within the image to be equally distributed and shared between human and nature. The objects within the image, such as the watch, camera, and dark cloth connote time, preservation, and reflection. Klett's use of signs give his photo the purpose it needs to remain captivating. Within Klett's photo, icons, indexes, and symbols are all presented. The icon most prevalent in the image is the upside down image of Monument Valley. This iconic image represents that specific rock structure in the valley. This image is also a synecdochal sign, it is a part of this rocky range, representing the national park as a whole. The two indexes that stand out immediately are the camera and the dark cloth. When you see a camera– you immediately think of documentation or memories. When we think of something under the dark cloth or in a dark space we think of referees reviewing a play or the process of developing a photograph. When someone is under the dark cloth, it is a personal, capturing moment. This sign is a moment of silence and critical reflection. The symbols which are presented in the photograph include the camera, watch, and the style of the photograph. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 11. Gustre Dore Reflection On Tuesday, July 11, 2017, I made a trip to the Denver Art Museum. I found a painting by Gustave Dore, a French painter from Paris, France. The piece was, The Family of Street Acrobats: the Injured Child painted in 1873. After studying this piece of art in person I noticed many different elements and characteristics in the actual painting. These are not seen in the photographed image of the painting that is on the Denver Art Museum Online. There are many visual elements that are taken away from a painting when it is made available in an online collections website. When I saw The Family of Street Acrobats: the Injured Child I immediately went up to it and I could see the texture of the paint, the line and the blobs on the mothers dress and the long lines of the back ground. The paint was raised, which you cannot observe in the online picture. The picture online was obviously edited. The color and light are changed significantly through the editing. It makes the painting look very light and you are able to see more detail without having to look at it for long. By making the painting brighter it took away from the original colors of the paint. The father is too bright. This change seems to alter the mood and energy that the painting is projecting. The size of the painting is misrepresented in the editing of it. When comparing the two you can see that the online image was cropped. This takes away the space at the very top of the painting. This is significant because you lose ...

  • 12. Single Ethnographic Research Today, anyone can use a camera to capture a photo with a single click in a single second. However; this type of advanced camera was nonexistent during the renaissance when photographers were using camera obscuras to project inverted images of the things that were outside the of the obscura. It wasn't until the 19th century that the development of the chemical needed to capture an actual image became available. Even though people were now able to photograph, the lengthy process that it took to register a single image made photography nearly impossible. For instance, Joseph NicГ©phore NiГ©pce took more than 6 hours to capture the first photographs ever taken. During the 19th century, there were several technological improvements that made photography a more convenient task. Some of these improvements included the daguerreotype process invented in 1839 by photographer Louis Daguerre. This invention allowed photographers to capture images with shorter exposure to light thus, creating longer lasting photographs. A few years later, a man by the name of William Henry Fox Talbot invented the calotype process which allowed several copies of an image to be produced using a negative paper image. The two most significant technological ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... It was created during the Baroque period by Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini.

In this sculpture, Bernini used the physical body to illustrate what Saint Teresa's vision was about and to help the viewer better understand her experience. The sculpture shows an angel carrying a spear that is heading to Saint Teresa who seems to be in pain.

It has many advanced capabilities that lead it to producing sample images of exceptional quality. A key requirement in this task was to be able to take images of the complete entire surface of a sample as one. The VHX–6000 uses an image stitching algorithm, combined with a motorised stage to provide the user with an overall high resolution (20,000 x 20,000 pixels) image of the... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... A Pixel shift method allows for high resolution imaging, and by specifying the measurement point on a high–resolution image, the measurement is taken at an increased accuracy. This along–side the automatic edge detection function, reduces measurement discrepancies between users. Along with the ability to make accurate measurements quickly, the VHX–6000 allows for clean and contamination analysis in line with ISO–16232 Standards . The sample surface image is divided into multiple regions and these regions are analysed individually, which allows for large areas to be contamination analysed. If using a high–resolution microscope lens with a large depth of field, highly precise measurements of samples can be taken down to 1пЃm. This allows for calculations such as porosity areas, volume fraction of defects etc. If a sample surface has height variations a fully focused image can be obtained instantaneously by bringing together images taken over a range of focal planes. This focal position data can then be used to produce a three–dimensional model. The VHX–6000 can create a three–dimensional image, by using a depth from defocus method by calculating height and analysing extremely small changes in texture. Even within areas of low contrast or under and over saturated pixels can be accurately calculated unlike when imaged using conventional microscope methods such ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 14. Photorealism In Manet's A Bar At The Folies-Bergere Photorealism is a term that characterizes the artists whose work depends heavily on photographs and mixes together the real and the unreal. For example, Manet's A Bar at the Folies–BergГЁre utilizes photorealism to depict a scene from modern Parisian life: a young barmaid stands behind the bar of a bustling night–club, confronting the viewer with a worn–out, emotionless expression and seemingly awaiting her patron's order or request. The painting plays with our sense of reality by showing a strange man and the misaligned reflections of the barmaid and the champagne bottles in a mirror. Likewise, in Picture for Women, Jeff Wall emulates the internal structure of Manet's painting and incorporates elements such as the light bulbs and and poles to give the image spatial depth. This photograph shows a reflection in the mirror of a sparse studio room split into three panels with a woman on the left, a camera framed by a window in the center, and a man walking on the right. Both images utilize reflection to breach the limits of the naked eye's perspective and evoke a sense of mystery and ambiguity. This paper will argue that in Picture for Women and Bar at the Folies –Bergere, Jeff Wall and Manet utilize female protagonists and the motif of the mirror to examine spectatorship and movement in still art and challenge our traditional sense of reality and the concept of the male gaze. In both Manet's Bar and Wall's Picture for Women, the mirror challenges our common–sense perceptions ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 15. Henry Peach Robinson : The King Of Photographic Picture... Henry Peach Robinson Henry Peach Robinson, born on July 9th, 1830, was a British photographer and prominent author on photography. Known as "the King of Photographic Picture Making," he began his life's work as a painter but would become one of the most influential photographers of the late 19th century. He was a prolific advocate for photography as an art form and is well known for his role in "pictorialism," which, according to Encyclopedia Britannica, is "an approach to photography that emphasizes beauty of subject matter, tonality, and composition rather than the documentation of reality." After finishing school at the age of 13, Robinson began an apprenticeship for a bookseller/ printer. During this time he studied art and even ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Robinson was one of the first photographers to setup a staged photo–shoot. He was known to create outdoor scenes in the studio where he could control the elements as well as the model. His preferred models were members of high society or paid actors rather than the unsophisticated peasants he was depicting because he felt that the actual peasants were "dull and awkward" and didn't fit in his picture perfect settings. He would pose his models to create his ideal scene within the genre. Since Robinson's goal was to create stills that resembled paintings, he took no issue with combining elements that were "real" with those that were staged. The effect he was trying to accomplish was known as the "pictorial effect," a subject that he delves into deeply in his book, Pictorial Effect in Photography: Being Hints on Composition and Chiaroscuro for Photographers, published in 1869. In his book, Robinson states, "any dodge, trick and conjuration of any kind is open to the photographer's use. It is his imperative duty to avoid the mean, the base and the ugly, and to aim to elevate his subject... and to correct the unpicturesque. a great deal can be done and very beautiful pictures made, by a mixture of the real and the artificial in a picture." As a pictorialist, Robinson was of the belief that the photograph should conjure feeling or a particular mood.

It was taken from underneath, looking down the length of the pier. What I loved about this photo is that the pillars closest to the lens are much distorted and the Pacific Ocean has soothing yet eerie radium like glow to it. It's a very strange photograph and I absolutely loved it. The second photo was titled The Coffee Shop. Photo is a black and white print taken in Italy 2010. It is of a group of men (I think) and they appear to be walking in the middle of a road or alley away from the camera. What really liked about this photo is the graininess of it and the contrast of the snow covered street and the dark clothing that the men are wearing. What I loved about this photo is that I could feel the bone–chilling cold, like I was actually there. The last photo was another black and white print.

At first glance, this definition seems to remove most mediums of art from the set of crafts, as often art has no use outside of beauty; Soetsu implies that all crafts are art, but not all arts are craft. I believe that, despite typically being considered an art, photography, specifically wildlife photography, fits Soetsu's definition of a craft.

How a viewer might perceive a picture might even contradict as to what the photographer wanted to say. This fact is explained by Roland Barthes, where he challenged the common sense idea that if the photographer is not there to explain the photograph, we only have resources i.e. a photograph to interpret what he wanted to say. While taking a picture sometimes even photographers are not sure about their intentions with the picture they want to take, or even if they are, their expectations might not match with the results. The results might be completely different and convey a different meaning altogether. A photographer's vision gets restricted by the little hole through which he sees. While framing a picture, the photographer is restricted with the frame. He also has to intersect two quite distinct procedures, i.e. how the light falls on the object and the formation of image through optical device.

What particular temporal qualities do you think the found image adds to these works? Photography has always been a way of documenting time, a memory sealed into an image and held there forever. This is a brief documentation of a place or a person capsuled in time, with the history and the memory intertwined with the image. However, as the photographs age and the decades pass, the images stay the same but the memory fades away along with the audience of that era. What happens to these photographs once the memory has faded away? John Stezaker became fascinated with these long forgotten images from before his time, and felt drawn into recreating memories of people in the images and giving them a new lease of life. A brief run through of Stezaker's career and a study of his art will perhaps give us a clearer view of what drew him to these images in particular and why he felt the need to create new from old. Before we begin any analysis we have to question, how can a photograph represent a memory or a moment in time? According to the Oxford English Dictionary memory is defined as, "The faculty by which the mind stores and remembers information". The photograph is a way of recording a physical recollection of a person, place or event.

  • 24. Film, La Jetee As A Reference Point For My Discussion Essay Can a pictorial narrative be formed purely through the use of images? It is a question many have sought to answer, and one that is becoming increasingly relevant as our literary concepts evolve to keep pace with developments in modern technologies. I have chosen to use the cinГ©–roman designed by Bruce Mau from Chris Marker's 1962 science–fiction film La JetГ©e as a reference point for my discussion. The film is constructed almost entirely of still–images, shot through a Pentax camera. Involving the "future destruction of Paris," the film follows a prisoner haunted by the image of a woman from his childhood, sent through time by his controllers (Lupton 2005, 87). The cinГ©–roman presents the film's still–images in a graphic novel format, with English and French subtitles positioning the film's voice–over into text on the page. Ultimately, I will attempt to argue that images can be used to create a purely pictorial narrative, in reference to the theories of visual culture expressed by Barthes, Burgin, Berger and Baetens, among others. It is important to note that the cinГ©–roman exists independently from its predecessor: "the French cinГ©–roman is a novel or film scenario designed to read not necessarily in conjunction with the film upon which it is based" (Santoro 1996, 37). As such, while I will direct some attention to the discussion of the tension between the cinГ©–roman's and its cinematic predecessor, I have chosen to focus my deeper discussion on the implications of image ...

Images are more than an object to have for safe keeping. In his article, "We Are A Camera," Nick Paumgarten discusses the uprising of the popular recording device known as the GoPro. This device is used to record events and experiences from different perspectives, whether that is from underwater or zip lining through a forest in a first–person view. Moreover, videos and photography allow people to capture images to reminisce about past experiences, to share these moments with others, and even remember those whom you have lost. There are countless debates about how distracting cell phones and other electronic devices can be however, they can still be used in positive ways, such as capturing images. Images are a way of recalling events or memories. Certainly, with these images a person would depict a picture far more vividly than what they could have conjured up by simply trying to remember the moment. After going through a great experience, people tend to want to reflect and rejoice at what they had done or gone through. The most memorable moment of my past would have to be my seventh birthday party. It was a small surprise in the middle of a park in Fort Lauderdale on a scorching hot day.

In this project I plan on exploring the use of panorama through history and how it has developed to form more interesting ideas.

It is possible that the tapestry was created because there simply wasn't enough room in a regular image space however the possibility that the choice has a more artistic meaning is present and will later inspire similar ideas. Observing the meaning and ideologies behind the tapestry is difficult due to the sheer size of it. Although we can gather a general vibe from different areas. The artist has used very dull colours throughout the picture, although they would have been dimmed down over time the mood they create has a very dark and medieval tone. Interestingly the faces on the soldiers are extremely lacking in detail, and not so much so that you could blame it on poor artistic talent but it almost seems intentional because there is no way the artist would have been able to recall the looks of each and every soldier on the battlefield however this may have been an artistic point to show the insignificance of the soldiers as their lives were wasted fighting when all that mattered was whether William or Harold II were to die.

Post–modernism was "a reaction to the assumed certainty of scientific, or objective, efforts to explain reality" (Public Broadcasting Service, n.d.). It can be suggested that reality is something that we each create and possess individually. Morimura took a work from the late 1500's and changed it to fit his personal intentions and interpretations. It embodies post–modernist devices, such as stereotyping, the crossing of genre, and contemporary culture (Felluga, n.d.). By using these devices, Morimura transforms a work that could only seem applicable to the venerable and religious, to a work that is easily recognized and applied by the general public. He transforms the work from Bruegel's reality to his own, in endeavour to resolve it. It is thought that appropriation is unoriginal, or possess aspects of plagiarism and negligence.

Even thought the photo only consists of blue, it is made up of lots of different shades of blue. The lights on the building and around it stand out because they are a bright colour. I think the way the sea blue colour merges into the deep blue/black colour of the background works really well. The photograph doesn't really have a story to it, as there isn't much going on, it doesn't have energy or any movement to it at all. However it could easily be a scene used in a film, such as an establishing shot. The photo has a certain peaceful feel to it. It is soothing to look at; this is because it is a calm, quiet setting– you can almost feel your presence there, staring into the beautiful view. I think the reason that the photo has such a positive, relaxing feel to it is down to the fact that the composition of the photo reminds you of a deep blue sea or a clear black sky. The photo has strong verticals and horizontal, which emphasise a static feel and the negative space. The picture has a large depth of field with the two buildings the centre point of it. Only natural lighting is used for this photo, therefore getting the exact time of day right would have been essential. The photo also has some negative points to it.

I felt a connection to the young man, knowing all too well what it was like to present a powerful outside image while knowing there was a self conscious and scared person inside. ...

  • 41. Analyzing Van Gogh's Wheatfield With Crows In this piece, John Berger discusses the implications of reproducing images and the changes this brings to the meaning and value of the work.

These altered forms of art, often provide insight or commentary into context and meaning of the original pieces. One alteration that Berger mentions, is the addition of text to an image, for example Wheatfield with Crows by Van Gogh. Looking at thepainting alone, it appears to be a serene landscape with birds soaring across the skies.

We see that the crows roam the skies in a disorganized fashion, it is as if nothing in this painting has a purpose or a plan, everything simply is in chaos. We might ask why crows? Could those birds (so often associated with death and mortality) flying towards us in the painting, signify Van Gogh's feeling that the crows, and what they represent, were coming for him? ...
