The document discusses and analyzes four different photos: 1) "South Side - Trampoline Man" by Jon Lowenstein, showing a man jumping face-first on a trampoline at a block party. 2) A photo by Jerome Sessini showing soldiers looking at the remains of crashed Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17. 3) "The Falling Man" by Richard Drew, depicting a victim falling from the World Trade Center during the 9/11 attacks. 4) "The Most Beautiful Suicide" by Robert Wiles, showing a woman who committed suicide strangely positioned on a crushed limousine in perfect form.

2. SOUTH SIDE – TRAMPOLINE MAN BY JON LOWENSTEIN
Topic: Photojournalism
Shot Type: Mid-shot
Event: The image features a young man
jumping on a trampoline face first at a block
party, with his friends watching him amused.
Why Chosen: I chose this because it in some
ways relates to me. Whenever on a
trampoline the jumper tends to be in a good
mood, or at least I am. I can visibly see that
being so high up and the expression on his
friends face that they are enjoying
themselves. Also this image was part of a
series that won the photographer Jon
Lowenstein $10,000 Dorothea Lange-Paul
Taylor Prize for his powerful, in-depth look at
life in Chicago’s much-maligned South Side.

3. REMAINS OF MALAYSIAN AIRLINES PLANE MH17
Photographer: Jerome Sessini
Topic: Photojournalism
Shot Type: Long-shot
Event: 4 soldiers are looking
hopelessly at the remains of the
crashed Malaysian Airliner.
Why Chosen: Because it makes a
real statement on mans capability
and feelings towards events. The
expression on the men’s face
cannot be seen but due to their
individual stances, you can almost
paint a picture as to what they
would be looking like. It shows how
hopeless man can feel in a crisis.

4. THE FALLING MAN
Photographer: Richard Drew
Topic: Photojournalism
Shot Type: Long-shot/ Portrait
Event: A victim of the September 11th
attacks falling out of the WTC building.
Why Chosen: I’ve seen this image
before and am always captivated by its
simplicity and meaning. There’s no
blood, guts or explosions, just a man
falling. Yet it really paints the picture of
the horror of that day. The man
featured represents the everyman and
the fact that anything horrific can
happen to you, no matter how normal
you are.

5. THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SUICIDE
Photographer: Robert Wiles
Topic: Photojournalism
Shot Type: Mid-shot
Event: The image features a dead
woman lying strangely positioned on a
crushed limousine after committing
suicide.
Why Chosen: Because it shows a
woman who had no other choice but
to end her life, and how she in some
way retained dignity by strangely
landing in such perfect form. If you put
her body on a sofa for example you
wouldn’t think twice to say she was
simply relaxing.

6. BLOODY BUTCHER
Photographer: Unknown
Topic: Sport
Shot Type: Close-up
Event: The image features England
international Terry Butcher viciously
bleeding from the head, discolouring
his shirt almost completely.
Why Chosen: Because it shows the
complete determination and fearless
nature of a sportsman driven by
success and not his injuries. If
anybody says football is played by
cowards and weak men, show them
the Terry Butcher photograph.
