None of the images below have titles or dates. They are all found under sections, however. The first is from a section of the photographer’s website entitled ‘dessert’ and the other three from one called ‘breakfast’.

3. Theme or focus of images
Delete this info when your done…
When photographic images are used to convey information, as in mass media and on the Web, consider the content of the photograph and the intent of the photographer. It is important to think consciously and critically and to pay attention to all aspects of the image. Think the 4 “Ws” who, what, where, and when?
• Who or what do you see?
• When was this photograph taken — what is happening in the photograph?
• Where was this photograph taken?
Composition
As the photographer decides where to stand, moves the camera, or zooms in on a scene, she selects what to include in the image. What did the photographer choose to include or exclude in the image? If she had zoomed out or stood further away, what additional information could we see? The composition of the photograph can also be altered later by cropping. How does the decision to frame only certain elements in the photograph affect the message conveyed by the photograph?
Techniques used
Think shutter speeds, rule of thirds & depth of field
