Type: medium shot 
Event: Guatemala 1991, man carrying meat out 
of van. 
Photographer: Thomas hoepker 
I chose this photo because it contrasts the 
violence of the dead animal with man. The 
blood stained shirt further emphasises this.
Topic: Photojournalism 
Type: Medium shot 
Event: Man on wire between twin towers, Philippe 
petit, 7thAugust 1974 
Photographer: Jean Pierre 
I chose this photo because it is an astonishing feat 
that still to this day is fascinating to see and also 
hard to believe. The photo also shows a time when 
both the world trade canters were still standing and 
captures the spirit of an era.
Topic: Sport Photography 
Type: Medium wide shot 
Event: Pele’s trademark bicycle kick during 
a game. 
Photographer: Riccardo gaucho 
Because it shows Brazilian flare in a game 
that can otherwise be quite dull. It also 
shows a player who is viewed by many to 
be the greatest player to ever play the 
beautiful game.
Topic: Photojournalism 
Type: Very Wide Shot 
Event: Tenement apartment 
west side of Chicago, 1944. 
Photographer:Gordan Coster 
I chose this photo because it 
shows the side of life in a 
working class district of 
Chicago very much different 
to the more athluent areas of 
the city. It also encompasses 
the social life on the streets 
where whole streets came 
out to socialise.
