This photograph was taken by Nick Ut to depict the horror of the Vietnam War. It shows children fleeing their bombed homes in black and white, highlighting their terror. The photo aimed to show how the war endangered innocent lives and the devastating tactics used by American forces. It generated income through magazine publications and helped raise awareness of the human costs of the conflict.

1. Purpose
This photograph was taken to show the horror of the Vietnam War. These children
are fleeing from their homes due to bombings. The Vietnam War was one of the
most horrifying wars in history. People were seeing how innocent people were
fleeing from their homes in television and the devastation caused from the attacks
from Americans and Vietnamese. Beside this, the Vietnam War was a war America
was loosing badly and they lost many of their men. In how this picture can generate
income they can advertise this picture in a magazine. Magazines Such as Time is a
great magazine in showing figures/things that are dominant in pop culture and they
can pay Nick UT to display this image in the front cover of their magazine.
Composition and framing
This picture is taken from a landscape view and it is taken in black and white. But in
technical terms this picture was taken with a slow shutter speed as we can see some
blur within the image. The focus points of this image is split into the rule of third as
we can see each of the victims in the sections of the photograph and you can see the
soldiers that are behind them.
Image analysis
This image is taken in Black and white. When images are in black and white it can be
used to show an effect of sadness nostalgia and time etc. In this case this image was
taken in black and white due to time when this picture was taken and it was taken
during the Vietnam War. The lighting is natural and what we can see within the
picture is smoke from the explosions of their homes, soldiers behind these terrified
children and the way the picture is composed is we are forced to see these horrified
children as they are wearing clothes contrasting the Americans camouflage green
uniform.
Meaning

2. The meaning of this image is to depict the horror of the Vietnam War. It makes a
point that when in war the lives of children are endangered and it seems that the
lives of these children are not taken in consideration. Beside this, people in
television was seeing this kind of horror and was seeing the kind of horrible tactic
American military were using in the Vietnam war. It was known that Nick Ut helped
aided these children and the napalm girl (Phan Ti Kim Phuc) that seems to be naked
within the photo was badly burnt and Nick Ut helped aided her and till this day she is
forever thankful for it. When Nick Ut sent in the photo to New York AP headquarters
they originally had the rule of no nudity but due to the horror of this picture it had to
be displayed to show the devastation of the Vietnam War.
Purpose
Nick Ut took this image and it’s the famous phan ti kim phuc (napalm girl)
grandmother (Tao) carrying her dead grandson Danh (who is only 3 years old) after
the napalm attack. You can see the horror of the Vietnam War from this image as a
grandmother is forced to carry the body of her dead grandchild. Nick Ut purpose of
this image was to show the horror of the Vietnam War, how innocent children were
suffering in this war and the effect of the napalm attacks. In how this image can
generate income it can generate it if it was displayed on magazines and news articles
with businesses paying Nick Ut to Display this horrific image.

3. Composition and framing
The image is framed as a portrait. It is taken in black and white and with the way the
picture is composed is the grandmother who is carrying the dead child is focused in
the foreground and there’s a shallow depth of field within the background. The focus
points only seems to be this poor woman carrying her dead grandchild and she’s
shot between the middle right of the picture.
Image analysis
The image is in black and white and with how the picture is composed we are forced
to see this poor woman carrying her dead child as the woman is focused in the
foreground and there’s a shallow depth of field within the background. The dead
child skin is scaly due to the napalm attacks. The lighting is natural and with the
image being black and white we can figure that this picture was shot at the time
during the Vietnam War making it even more horrifying as the death of innocent
children are being captured.
Meaning
The meaning of this image was to show to the world the horror of the Vietnam War.
Innocent children are being killed due to this war and it was crucial to show to the
world the effects of war and the people that suffer in consequence. Nick Ut and
other photographers helped/aided victims to hospitals or nearby medical attention
and when Nick Ut had pictures like this one and other horrifying pictures published
in news articles, the main question around the world is how could people let
children suffer like this?
Purpose

4. This photograph was taken to show a paradox. You can see the contrast between the
attractive girl and the snake on top of her head. It’s almost a representation
between the beauty and the beast. This picture can generate income if it was
displayed in exhibitions. Exhibitions can pay the photographer to display the picture.
Composition and framing
The way this picture is composed is the girl being focused in the foreground and the
background around her being blurred (a shallow depth of field). This picture is taken
in a landscape view and the points of focus are right in the middle where this
attractive girl is.
Image analysis
The picture has a lot of bright colours that represent nature and the lighting seems
to be natural. The girl seems to half naked and she is wearing flowers on her head
beside a snake being on top of her head, Also the snake on her head is actually real.
It is known that apparently all the animals in her photographs (katerina plotnikova)
are well taken of and are animals that seemto have no aggression towards the
carers/owners. With this, Katerina is trying to depict this picture as a visual fairy
Meaning

inspiring. Katerina likes to use powerful animals and delicate models, juxtaposed
together, to create her eccentric Artwork.
Purpose

5. Here is another photograph by Katerina Plotnikova that represents a paradox. This
picture shows another attractive girl that seem to be intimate with this bear.
Reasons I say a paradox as this picture represents the representation between
beauty and the beast and Katerina Plotnikova is known to depict her pictures as
visual fairy tales and use delicate/powerful animals within her photographs. This
picture may be shown for admiring reasons. This picture is a beautiful picture that
represents beauty and the beast and it’s a picture that a lot of people would admire
to see and pay for. In how this image can generate income it could be displayed in
exhibitions with businesses/people that own the business paying Katerina Plotnika
to display her photograph in the exhibition.
Composition and framing
In how this picture is composed is the beautiful girl and the bear are focused as the
foreground and there’s a shallow depth of field within the background. There is
proof of a shallow depth of field as the trees in the background are blurred. This
picture is shot in landscape and the main point of focus is the bear and the girl in the
middle due to a shallow depth of field.
Image analysis
The lighting seems to be natural. People may think this image is photo shopped but
it’s actually a real bear posed with this girl. The bear name is Stephen and its known
that this bear has not shown any aggression over the past 18 years. But beside this,
the colours once again are complimentary colours that represent nature colours and
these colours help add effect to the fairy tale look within this picture. The picture is
taken with a shallow depth of field to make the girl and the bear in focus. Reason for
this is to show how intimate this attractive girl seems to be with this bear.
Meaning
The meaning of this image is for art reasons. Many art lovers will admire this picture
for its use of its fairy tale visuals and how intimate this girl seems to look with this
bear.

fiction like as the blue electric sulphuric acid looks alien like. The purpose of this
image is to depict how the miners have been extracting the sulphuric acid for over
40 years and you can see the beauty in what they do to double they meagre income.
The Kaweh Ljen Volcano is a rare volcano with blue sulphuric acid erupting from it.
The connotation from this image is to show that these volcanoes are one of the most
underrated wonders of the world and that it’s rare to see blue sulphuric acid erupt

be displayed in exhibitions with business paying Oliver Grunewald to display his
pictures in their exhibitions and it can also be displayed in art museums to, as this is
a rare photo of the combustion of the sulphuric gasses.
Composition and framing

8. This image is framed as a landscape photo and is shot with a high aperture and
shutter speed to capture every detail. You cant see the detail within the picture as
much due to the fact that it was shot at night but it was shot at night to capture the
blue glow of the sulphuric gasses. The focus points of the image is split into the rule
of third so you can see each parts of the combustion of the sulphuric gasses.
Image analysis
The lighting of the image is natural and it was shot at night. There is no filter within
the image and the image was shot at night to capture the beauty of the glowing blue
sulphuric gasses and with how it was composed are eyes are just drawn into the

Meaning
The meaning of this photograph was to capture the beauty of this rare sight of
sulphuric gasses combusting. For seven years Paris-based photographer Olivier
Grunewald has been documenting the Kawah Ijen volcano in Indonesia, where
dazzling, electric-blue fire can often be seen streaming down the mountain at night.
He often wears a mask, as it’s dangerous to breathe the sulphuric gasses, as they
are toxic. Grunewald says the miners of the Kawjeh ljen volcano in Indonesia often
don’t wear mask and are unaware of the harmful gasses they breathe into and this
goes for some visitors to.
